Chunks: 1 Corinthians 13

In verse 5 of chapter 13, as we’ve seen, Paul says that love doesn’t act inappropriately. To this, he adds that love is "not self-seeking,” or literally, that it “doesn't seek its own things.” Loving people aren’t merely concerned about what’s best for them; they’re willing to make sacrifices for the sake of what’s best for others. We’ll explore that idea using a situation Paul describes earlier in the letter.
