Some missed the point. Some began to work together to advance the cause. Others, like the church in Corinth, began to squabble and to bicker and to become swollen with pride about how religious they were. After he told the Corinthians that love is the main thing, the central characteristic of Christian life, he tried to tell them what love is like. This is what he said.
Love is patient.
Love is kind. When Paul talks to Christians about the kind of love that is the mark of Christian life, the kind of love that makes a community a church, he does not describe some kind of passionate feeling or altered emotional state. He talks about a particular kind of behavior. Love is patient. Love is kind.
