Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ I - Pauline Clarity of Charity (cont'd) Pauline Clarity of Charity #3: 1Cor 13: 1-3
In 1Cor 13: 1-3 Paul clarifies all sorts of spiritual
things
we may do, if done "without charity", account as "nothing"; are
ministerially nothing more than sounding brass. Such partial and
hypocritical things profit "nothing". In contrast, with charity
spiritual things profit everything (profit withal). So "charity" is as
important as the difference between everything vs nothing."without charity" even spiritual things count as "nothing" Having charity or not is as having everything vs nothing. Such conquers with the biblical math of 2/3 = 0.666... to infinity of "nothing"; Whereas 3/3 = 1.000... to eternity of everything. For example becoming better of three things: good better best, is only as being 2/3 of 3/3; still 1/3 short of perfection. So then even getting it up right of left/right sides in the heavens, and by "rightly dividing the word of truth" in such a left/right sides war, is still only "division" and "war"; Not yet "unity" of the Spirit, nor "peace" with God. For division, into left/right sides, is a them vs them scenario, also a Son of Man scenario; Wheres unity and peace are Son of God things concerning "us". Christ of Jesus Christ notably entered heaven (higher than the heavens) for us. Everything
vs Nothing
Many spiritual things notably count as if nothing "without charity". A Grace and Peace gospel without merciful Mercy counts as nothing. Just as "this gospel" of this/that gospels brought only global sorrows; Why Translators of the Bible made Three Wishes: Grace Mercy Peace. Peace "with God" is "through" Jesus => Christ => fulness of Christ. A Son of Man left/right sides war is still a childish blame game, even when on the right side, which also inducts all into the hALL of shame, the result of childish law <= law (still imputing sin for the hell of it, still hung up on the cross and better sacrifices instead of going through the cross to risen and seated in accordance with the will of God: I will have mercy, and not sacrifce). Albeit such children of God, servants of righteousness, are the better of two servants in Rom 6, via the better of two laws in Rom 8, and the better of two children in Rom 9. Yet righteousness of such lefteousness vs righteousness is still as "nothing", without charity, nothing more than "division", which was before the cross, in contrast to "peace" which came after the cross; and notably via abolition of law: Eph 2. The fulness of Christ: the end of the law "for righteousness" is not only the end of the law, but also the end of righteousness which imputes lefteousness: them wanting to be right only to make other of them wrong... a them vs them blame game: profits "nothing". 1. Left of left/right sides war: "division" ... law of grace + law ... "them" 2. Right of left/right sides war: "division" ... grace of law/grace ..."them" 3. Above accusing, condemning, forgiving one another: "unity"... grace ... "us" For the biblical exhortation about such child-ish and servant-ish law vs law and law vs grace "division" all sides wars is any person, house, or kingdom divided against itself (of "them" who "oppose themselves": 2Tim 2:25) shall fall (from grace), to "ruin" (destruction: via "law worketh wrath", which God hath not appointed "us" unto). And notably when they (them) say Peace and safety (allegory: Grace and law), saying safety in law (even if the better of two laws in Rom 8), well then what follows is "sudden destruction", notably upon "them", and notably the "no escape" sort: 1Thes 5:3. Law worketh wrath: Rom 4:15. And God hath not appointed us to (law worketh) wrath: 1Thes 5:9. Charity is neither of two laws in Rom 8, nor even grace of a law vs grace on of Man division-all goats/sheep sides war; Rather it's pure grace void of law. 1Cor 13: 1-3 "Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become [as] sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have [the gift of] prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed [the poor sheep], and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing". Selah! Spiritual things without charity profit "nothing" !
Paul seems to clarify that getting it up-right, of left/right, still counts as nothing; Whereas get it: understanding, counts as everything. For if Babylon the "great" (of great <= greater <= greatest) is notably twice fallen ("is fallen, is fallen"), it therefore reasons that it requires two up risings (great => greater) => greatest to be reconciled again to the position of "greatest" of "three things"; And through the greater one of great/greater twain, which is notably Jesus Christ of Moses/JC, by whom came grace of such law/grace. Yet being right, only to make others wrong, is also as self condemnation. For "there is no respect of persons with God", and "a little leaven leaveneth the whole". So let us not get hung up on the cross, not even stop at being up-right of such left/right: But as exhorted go on unto perfection by leaving the left/right "principles" for what is above childish accusation, condemnation, sin imputation, and forgiving one another. Let us have all grace and no law <=> law, by which none perish rather than all perish from a bad case of grace + law = life + death = dead end. Pauline Clarity of Charity #4: 1Cor 13: 4
"charity suffereth long": endures to the end Charity suffereth l-o-n-g: 1Cor 13:4. The Lord is l-o-n-g suffering: 2Pet 3:9. But charity is a "her" thing, whereas the Lord is a "he" thing. Both she and he seem to suffer, and l-o-n-g, which speaks of having the 'makrothumeo' sort of patience and endurance when it comes to making love. Charity also endures to the end, the perfect agape sort of love that God is, which is agapaw love, which is love void of fear hath torment. Such allegorically speaks of grace void of law, and mercy void of sacrifice, thereby also peace void of war. It also speaks of "endure (hupomeno) to the end" to be saved: Mt 24:13, saved from (law worketh) wrath, rather than having premature rapture theories of some only being raptured, some (left) behind. Such is not the eternal salvation of all, nor endurance, nor patience, nor suffering long, but rather as jumping the gun in a race, which disqualifies all runners, to the point of restarting the race. That Jesus Christ has already come and that Christ thereof has already done his part, as if the perfect prototype or "author" (only) of "eternal salvation", and the Lord (now that Spirit) is still doing his part by being l-o-n-g-suffering to "us-ward". Charity should also do "her" part to help get properly finished what the Lord authored: "eternal" salvation (not temporal saved + destroyed after as in Jude 5), that is if his and her parts are to be as one (he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit; the spirit of truth of such err/truth; and unity of such division/unity; which is the greatest of three things: great greater greatest). Perhaps such a one is also clarified as an "us" void of "them" (and their plural and divided "heavens": Gen 2). For "them" are as "Adam" in Gen 5:2, only the "created" of created/made things, the imperfect of imperfect/perfect things, which things are an allegory with a moral, written aforetime for our learning. And "as in Adam [as in them] all die": 1Cor 15. In contrast the Lord is longsuffering to us-ward so none perish rather than all perish from ignorance: the worst, resulting in worst of latter ends worse, being "willing ignorance" that seven spirits of Revelation are as seven other spirits more wicked; Whereas unity is via one Spirit (not seven or eight), the Holy Spirit (not Holy Ghost). As converted Peter clarifies, it was "willing ignorance" which caused the first world of twain worlds he allegorically compares to perish. And perhaps another latter end worse is due to them folk being sow dog gone law <= law: 2Pet 2:20-22. Yet thank God such is not how the Bible ends; but is only the first part of the third day shewdown where the pendulum swings from better to worse due to the Son of Man being Lord "also" of the Sabbath... and a Revelation Sabbath: the Sabbath that was made for man of two Sabbaths, the Sabbath still having two Lords (law and grace) till one of twain (His Grace) finally gets "established" as the Lord of Lords. Yet such is still only the better part of good better best, as the narrow way only "leadeth unto life"; the best part being no mention of both Lords, only mention of our Lord and His grace, which is how the Bible ends. Pauline Clarity of Charity #5: 1Cor 13: 4
charity is "kind"... grace us Charity is "kind": fit for use, useful, grace us, virtuous, more pleasant, benevolent, manageable, mild, etc. Yet as converted Peter later clarifies "charity" is above brotherly kindness, or what tops off brotherly kindness as the last of seven things to add to your faith: "to brotherly kindness [add] charity" (2Peter 1: 6). So "charity" is 'seventh of seven' things we are to add to our faith (the law is not of faith), brotherly kindness being only the sixth. So the sort of "kind"-ness "charity" is seems to be even more than brotherly kindness, as the "fulness of Christ" is more than Christ: "the end of the law". The Christ, of Jesus => Christ, that God was in, reconciling the world unto himself (and notably by not imputing sin to them), is further clarified as the end of the law "for righteousness" of such left-eousness vs right-eousness. Such speaks allegorically of putting away both of two laws of Romans 8:2 as if both such law law are as "childish things"; And as putting away even the right side of such left/right sides war, in favor of "he is our peace" who hath abolished the law. It speaks of being the man kind of child/man kinds in 1Corinthians 13:11, and the better blessed "man" kind of child/man kinds in Romans 4:7,8 which speaks of no sin imputed, which speaks of no law (for where no law, there no transgression: Romans 4:15, and when no law, no sin is imputed: Romans 5:13). It also speaks of being the perfect man kind in Ephesians 4 we are exhorted to grow up unto by putting away "childish things" such as merry go round law <=> law. For one law of Romans 8:2 proselytes, making one "more the child of hell": Mt 23:15, and another law later gives place to it like two beasts in Rev 13, making for a latter end worse instead of better. Not to mention Paul clarifies the only foundation he laid as a man kind of child/man kinds is Jesus Christ; Whereas the second law of such Rom 8:2 law law is about life in Christ Jesus, mirrorly the reverse of Jesus Christ. Paul (being also a "faithful steward of the mysteries of God", thereby disclosing yet keeping the mystery of the allegory) also clarifies in Romans 7 that "another law" only results in "all manner of (evil) concupiscence". Yet many modern ministries still jump on the "sounding brass" band wagon of the better law of such law law in Romans 8:2, which childishly wants to be right to make others wrong; Not realizing such is as self-condemnation and Horeb-bull if "we all are one", and "there is no respect of persons with God", and "a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump". Not to mention you too can have partiality with an impartial God is an oxyMORON which only ensnares children who are still unaware of what they're saved from. So the "kind"ness charity is, is the man kind that helps such children be no more children. Pauline Clarity of Charity #6: 1Cor 13: 4
Charity "envieth not": is not law law Charity envieth not. As Paul The Apostle clarifies in several other places "envy" is associated with vain glorying, babbling, and jangling of men still being childish and carnal; Especially among those in Corinth and Galatia. And many pluralized vain (grace + law) things like strifes, divisions, and wraths mentioned along with pluralized "envyings" indicates both sides of such left/right sides wars are men being childish: law law, playing a blame game: 2Coritnthians
12:20
"For I fear, lest, when I come, I shall not find you such as I would, and [that] I shall be found unto you such as ye would not: lest [there be] debates, envyings, wraths, strifes, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, tumults:" Galatians 5:21
"Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told [you] in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God". In both cases Paul notes that such pluralized things, and all "such like", involving evil concupiscence, are the result of being law <= law, which he further clarified in Romans 7 is due to "another law", and clarified such prior to his mention of two laws in Romans 8:2; Noted the latter is in "Christ Jesus". Yet it seems many adults today still get childishly ensnared with the second of such a law <=> law merry go round, vainly brag of being "children" of God, when the higher "exhortation" (of such edifying => exhortation => comfort) is to "be no more children", neither of the two sorts of "children" in Romans 9: Not "more the child of hell" (as hypocrites, vipers, fools, and blind guides, who all use law to impute sin for the "hell" of it) in Mt 23:15. Such childish things, especially among adults, becomes only a latter end worse. Such is the result of adding law (worketh wrath) to grace (is sufficient), making God's "grace unto you" to be "no more grace", and of adding sacrifice (witch is "of the law" and notably "never" ever pleased God) to His mercy, thereby making God's mercy no more "merciful"; Also the result of adding a childish war cry to "he is our peace", which only makes ye an oxyMORON. Paul notes his sharpness unto oxymoronic Childish-adults committing spiritual Adult-ery (claiming to be espoused to His grace and still fornicating with law) is only for the purpose of "edifying" (see "charity edifieth") his "brethren". In Galatians Paul reminds brethren bewitched by the law law of three top dogs that "they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God". Hence inheritance of the kingdom "of God" (of two kingdoms: of heaven and of God) is not for children nor for servants, neither sort of servants in Rom 6 and neither sort of children in Rom 9; For as it is plainly written to them vs them: even the heir of all things, as long as he is a "child", differeth nothing from a "servant": both (still) have to told what to Do-teronomy and Don't-eronomy, because they didn't get it: understanding (maturity, enlightenment, awareness). Charity envieth not, is then clearly above such childish and devilish law law, just as the (singular) "heaven" that Christ (of "that Jesus => Christ" is come) entered for "us" (not them; neither of them vs them who "oppose themselves") is notably "higher than the heavens". Charity among brethren does not promote the preposterous order of teaching first, learning after, nor men being childish; but rather learning first (first get the beam out your own eye, to see better how to help others), then preach there is one Lord: Master (Teacher). For such things (notably both of two testaments; covenants) are an "allegory", and scriptures were "written aforetime for our learning": Romans 15:4... As a shew, to "shew" (in his "times") who is "the blessed and only Potentate", or the better of such good/better things of Moses/JC: law/grace; and "that God" (of this/that Gods), such a Potentate as "the God of all grace" (no law), also makes a perfect "you" of ye/you, after "ye" suffer awhile, as is clarified by converted Peter in 1Pet 5:10... said perfection being all grace and no law at all, all mercy and no sacrifice at all, all peace and no war at all; The end of the shew (a two part shew about a third part) having no mention of law at all; And thereby none perish instead of all perish via "willing ignorance" (law law). Such (no mention of law) is what's best for all of three things good better best: good (for some): Mosaic law of 'grace + law' => better (for some): JC grace of 'grace or law' => best (for all): "The grace of our Lord JC with you all". And the last "Amen" going to what's best for all makes it a Holy Bible instead of a Holy Holy Bible and a book of "life" instead of life + death = dead end. Pauline Clarity of Charity #7: 1Cor 13: 4
Charity " vaunteth not itself " Charity vaunteth not itself. It doesn't brag or boast. Yet how often do we hear Christian Adults, both the Protestant and Roman Catholic sorts, brag about being the "children" of God, when God said: let us make "man" (not child, nor children, nor men), and the Son of God said being made proselyte only makes one more the "child" of hell (more childish and hellish than other hypocrites, fools, vipers, and blind guides in Mt 23 who all sit in Moses' seat); And the edification and exhortation of "his witness unto all men" is "put away childish things" (law law) and "be no more children" (neither sort in Rom 9). Charity vaunteth not itself. Yet how often do we hear Baptist brethren brag about their (childish) "principles" when the higher (than childish) Pauline exhortation is "leave" the "principles" (both sides of a Son of Man left/right sides war) and go on unto perfection, which is notably above such a blame game, or "higher than the heavens", also an "us" thing of them vs them / us; the "man" kind of such child vs child/man; even the perfect man kind: all grace and no law at all, which is the "fulness of Christ", the Christ of "Jesus Christ": The "grace" of our Lord "Jesus Christ" wity you all. Amen... which is how Paul ends his epistles, including Revelation, with his unique Pauline salutation, and notably such (all grace and no law at all) is by his own hand. Charity vaunteth not itself. Yet how often do we hear Evangelical and Penticostal brethren being evangelastic and oxymoronic about the truth, oft bragging and boasting how they have rightly divided the word of truth, when the higher exhortation is "unity" and sevenfold oneness ending with "one God" as the seventh thing of seven beginning with one body, not with "division" into left/right sides and being right only to make others wrong, or left (behind). Indeed Jesus of J=>C first brought "division": "Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, Nay; but rather division" (Lk 12:51)... "So there was a division among the people because of him" (Jn 7:43)... a division among them (Jn 9:16) as if them vs them... division among the [plural] Jews for these [plural] sayings (Jn 10:19). Such plural "sayings", and "division" thereof, are before the cross of before/after. After the cross we hear "peace" (by the risen Christ of J=>C), and later "unity" (by his witness unto all men), which speaks of risen and seated denoting the matter is forever settled, the same as the "living" part of the "new and living way" is "more excellent". Many Christian brethren also brag about their spiritual warfare, when the higher exhortation is "peace", not war; And "he is our peace" is the abcense of all such childish wars via the abcense of all such childish law law. For warfare does not end strife, but rather feeds it, by the better law of such law <= law giving place to devilish law: sin & death. Fighting the good fight of faith is allegorically fighting the law fight of blind faith (for the law is good). And since law is notably both the source: Rom 5;13 and the strength: 1Cor 15:56 of sin, such law law is notably a deadly "sting" (I fought the law and the law won), for law imputed sin, when "it is finsihed", brings forth "death": James 1:15 instead of life. Not to mention "the law is not of faith": Gal 3:11, and "whatsoever is not of faith is sin": Rom 14:23, and penalty for sin is death. See Charity
