Today, we would like to talk about healing through love. The famous scripture about love is in I Corinthians 13:4-8. The Corinthian church had some issues of sexual immorality. Paul had to redefine love for the church in Corinth. According to Baker encyclopedia of the Bible Love is, for Paul, the law of Christ, supreme and sufficient (Gal 5:14; 6:2), and Paul neatly defines what alone avails in Christianity as faith working through love (Gal 5:6). He insists that the supreme manifestation of the Spirit which Christians should covet is the more excellent way of love (1 Cor 12:2713:13; cf. Rom 5:5; Gal 5:22). Here too he contrasts love with five other expressions of religious zeal much prized at Corinth to show that each is profitless without love (1 Cor 13:13). He ends the chapter by comparing love with faith and hope, the other enduring elements of religious experience, and declares love to be the greatest.
