Testing Our Efforts at Biblical Love

2. "Charity is kind"(ICor 13:4)
Is is not inconsiderate of others, seeks to help, is constructive, blesses when cursed, help when someone is hurting and demonstrates tenderness.

3. "Charity envieth not" (ICor 13:4)
It is content, not jealous of another person's successes. It is not maliciously competitive.

4. "Charity vaunteth not itself" (ICor 13:4)
Love is not arrogant, but humble.  It is not haughty, but lowly in self-opinion and is gracious.

5. "Charity is not puffed up" (ICor 13:4)
Love is not boastful, but reserved. It does not show off, try to impress, or want to be the center of attention.

6.  "Charity doth not behave itself unseemly" (ICor 13:4)
Love is never rude and always courteous.
