I Timothy 1
The aim of our charge is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith.
I Timothy 1:5
This verse reminds me of I Corinthians 13 — “The Love Chapter” — along with its introduction, I Corinthians 12:31: And I will show you a still more excellent way — love, of course being that “more excellent way.”
The proof of good doctrine is not in winning intellectual arguments or citing chapter and verse or in pursuing all sorts of discussions, even if one might be “right” about all those topics. The proof is in love, and love is self-sacrificial action.
So what is the needle on your “love-meter” indicating today? Would those who know you best agree with your self-assessment?
