What Kind of Love is this?

The Apostle Paul’s subject in these three chapters in 1 Corinthians is the charismata. In 1 Corinthians 12, Paul wrote at length about how the gifts are given to believers. We discovered that they were distributed as God the Holy Spirit chose. He illustrated the use of the gifts by describing how different members of the body operate in different ways but are required for the body to function. Those with lesser appearing gifts could not exchange gifts for showier gifts or say they were not a part of the body. Those with showier gifts could not say the lesser gifts were not important and not needful. In fact, every gift is important and vital to the body.
