Next Verse |
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Note 17 at 1Co 13:6: A person who is living in God's kind of love will not rejoice in iniquity. The dictionary defines "iniquity" as "gross immorality or injustice; wickedness" (American Heritage Dictionary). Off-color jokes, ungodly movies, and the like will not be appealing.
Note 18 at 1Co 13:6: God's kind of love in individuals will cause them to rejoice in truth. God's Word is truth (Joh 17:17). Therefore, those who walk in God's kind of love will love the Word of God. Those who reject God's Word and its values cannot claim to be full of God's kind of love.
