God isn't that predictable, and we should never be so sure we know the mind of God. We have what God has revealed to us in scripture and we should study it. But what scripture gives us is a God who is always surprising us with unexpected justice and mercy, and always more than our best sages and theologians can understand. What scripture gives us is not a God we can fathom with our puny minds, but a God who loves us and loves us and loves us beyond our belief. Paul is right.
Love is more important than knowledge.
We don't remember Jesus as the smartest person who ever lived. We don't remember his academic achievements or celebrated writings. We don't know whether the Corinthian barbecue bingers ever got Paul's point. They seemed to have had all the spiritual gifts except the love Paul told them was the greatest and most necessary gift of all. Love is even more important than belief.
