the charity manifesto
Paul sent me this great manifesto on Charity:
[1] 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.
[2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
[3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing.
[4] Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
[5] Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
[6] Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
[7] Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
[8] 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.
[9] For we know in part, and we prophesy in part.
[10] But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
[11] When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
[12] For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
[13] And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Wiliiam Tyndale is one of the great unsung writers in the English language. He ought to be mentioned in the same breath as Milton, Lewis Carroll, Kipling, Donne. There’s a case for saying he has had as profound an effect on our language as Chaucer and Shakespeare.
Interesting to read this in the original English version, rather than the numerous times it is trotted out at weddings…
Sounds a whole lot like a Bible verse…1 Corinthians, chapter 13. Truly a good way to view charity.
“…the original English version…“
Isn’t the original in Greek?
“Paul sent me this…“
That’s funny!
Why yes he did!
