1 CORINTHIANS 13 SERIES - Verse 8

 Commentary of Charles Spurgeon, Adam Clarke & Matthew Henry
 
Charity never faileth: 
but whether there be prophecies, 
they shall fail; 
whether there be tongues, 
they shall cease; 
whether there be knowledge, 
it shall vanish away.
Vs.8
 
Charity never faileth - Ἡ αγαπη ουδεποτε εκπιπτει· This love never falleth off, because it bears, believes, hopes, and endures all things; Without it there never was true religion, nor ever can be;

Prophecies - shall fail - Whether the word imply predicting future events, or teaching the truths of religion to men, all such shall soon be rendered useless.

Tongues - shall cease - The miraculous gift of different languages, that soon shall cease, as being unnecessary.

Knowledge - shall vanish away - All human arts and sciences, as being utterly useless in the eternal world, though so highly extolled and useful here.

The light of a candle is perfectly obscured by the sun shining in its strength.
