1 Corinthians 13:7b
“…how to differentiate between right and wrong, or righteousness and sin…”
Love has to do with how we think and feel about people and things. It does not mean we believe all things as good and right. Most certainly, we know how to differentiate between right and wrong, or righteousness and sin. What it means is that “I would rather be wrong by believing you, than to wrong you by not believing you. I would rather be taken advantage of than to hurt you by judging you in a wrong way.”
a. We do not form opinions about the person. b. We do not try to read the person’s heart’s motivation (which is something we cannot). c. We do not hold a grudge against the person who has hurt us. d. We do not have evil imaginations, motives or intentions.
Dear children, when we love by “believing all things,” it does not mean we will not be taken advantage of or be disappointed. But we trust that God will protect and take care of us. Even if we are being taken advantage of, or are disappointed, we know that He has a sovereign purpose for us!
