Part 28 The Enduring Power of Love Maturity and Hope 1 Corinthians 13 8–13

Part 28: The Enduring Power of Love – Maturity, Hope, and the Message of the Cross | 1 Corinthians 13:8–13

In today’s devotional teaching, we explore the eternal nature of charity (agape love) as the greatest of all spiritual virtues. While gifts such as prophecy, tongues, and knowledge will one day pass away, love never fails — it is the enduring reflection of God's covenantal faithfulness.

We’ll uncover how Paul ties this deep truth to the journey of maturity in Messiah, and how this connects powerfully with the themes of Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

• Why love (charity) is greater than spiritual gifts

• Growing from spiritual immaturity to Christ-like maturity

• Faith, hope, and love — and why love is the greatest

• Passover connections: the Lamb, covenant love, and deliverance

• The centrality of Messiah in fulfilling the Torah through love
