1 Corinthians 13:1-13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.… Nothing is more common than to find even those who deny the authority of the Holy Scriptures, yet affirming, "This is my religion." Nay, even a Jew, a Spanish physician, then settled at Savannah, used to say with great earnestness, "Paul of Tarsus is one of the finest writers I have ever read. I wish the thirteenth chapter of his first letter to the Corinthians were written in letters of gold; and I wish every Jew were to carry it with him wherever he went." He judged (and herein he certainly judged right) that this single chapter contained the whole of true religion. (John Wesley.)
