1 Corinthians 13:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 It suffereth all things: it believeth all things: it hopeth all things: it endureth all things.
8 [a]Love doth never fall away, though that prophesyings be abolished, or the tongues cease, or [b]knowledge vanish away.
9 [c]For we know in [d]part, and we prophesy in part.

- 1 Corinthians 13:8 Again he commendeth the excellency of charity, in that that it shall never be abolished in the Saints, whereas the other gifts which are necessary for the building up of the Church, so long as we live here, shall have no place in the world to come.
- 1 Corinthians 13:8 The way to get knowledge by prophesying.
- 1 Corinthians 13:9 The reason: Because we are now in the state, that we have need to learn daily, and therefore we have need of those helps, to wit, of the gift of tongues, and knowledge, and also of those that teach them. But to what purpose serve they then, when we have obtained and gotten the full knowledge of God, which serve now but for them which are imperfect, and go by degrees to perfection?
- 1 Corinthians 13:9 We learn imperfectly.
