Thursday – Letters

Reading – 1 Corinthians 7-8

Highlight Verses:

“Anyone who claims to know all the answers doesn’t really know very much. But the person who loves God is the one whom God recognizes.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭8‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I tend to be a “know it all” or at least act like one.

I like trivia.

I’m an information geek, addicted to YouTube for car shows and history and travel documentaries.

And I love the Bible.

I can’t always quote chapter and verse, but I can usually get you close.

I like to say that I have a photographic memory – but I sometimes run out of film (storage memory for you young folks).

But no matter how much I can stuff into this brain and recall at will, it all means nothing!

What really matters is love.

Love God! (v. 3)
Love people! (v.13)

It can be said that knowing the Bible helps you love people by leading them to Jesus.

That’s true, but we have to guard against knowledge replacing love as the goal.

How do you balance loving God and people with learning more about God?
Does learning about other things help you to love God and people?
I would say it can. Prove me right or wrong.
