1. He believes everything, but he is not incredulous. Love is not gullible, that means he doesn't believe all things.
Unbelievers believe all the things they tell you. Love needs to find out the evidence to see reality. See how people believe so many things that they say online. “If you take these pills you will be more vigorous. You knew that the remedy for your illness is in your own home. ”
And so the list goes on. The idea of this phrase is that love is not distrustful. Don't blame another if you don't see the evidence first.
The love here follows what is done in jurisprudence: "Every man is innocent until proven guilty." We have a bad example of this with Job's friends.
They assumed that this man was in that condition was because there was sin.
The Bible had previously said he was fair. What kind of friends were these! In this sense, love first observes, prays, and waits until it has a correct judgment about what happens. How fast we are to make an a priori judgment about others. Spurgeon
He said that there are people who believe everything bad, but they are not the children of love. We are inclined to believe more evil.
2. Love is not suspicious. Love is not suspecting everything. Love is not like those police films that when there is a crime and is being investigated everyone is suspected. The meaning of the phrase is that love always thinks well of the other person.
Of course this is when there is love. If there is no love, then suspicion and distrust enter. Well we have to say that what Paul presents to us here is not to exalt naivety. Love, although he believes everything, is not blind. Love knows the
flaws of his beloved, but never lose faith that the last state of the person may be better than the first. The idea of this text is to show us that behind certain negative actions, some nobility is hidden and believes more in that positive part than to exalt how bad the other is. What Paul tells us here has to do with that faith that prevails over time, for he stands firm until he sees what God can do in a relationship that is broken. Love believes everything, especially when someone who has gone back again sees communion.
BECAUSE EVERYTHING WAITS, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT SEE ANSWER
1. Love expects grace to do its work v. 7c. This part of love is beautiful. It is closely related to hope, the other that remains. What this means is that even if the loved one does not show signs of repentance, he is still waiting on the Lord. This means that true love is not impatient. The idea of this is that we do not wait on the goodness of the person to change, but on the grace of God to work. This is what happens when someone deviates from the path. We put ourselves in holy intercession for the Lord to intervene with his grace and lift him up.
How much time are we going to wait? We do not know. Love awaits everything. We see this example in parents before the irreverent behavior of their children. They expect a change of course in their lives.
To wait in the grace that works is to know that God does not stop working and sends us to wait within this virtue of love. Waiting on God is the virtue that requires more demand in our lives. Everything in this world goes so fast that the believer is part of this "speed." We often do not wait on the will of God. Why does a young man end up falling in love with an unconverted? Because they have not learned that love awaits everything.
Love is optimistic. There is a true hope to which we cling, therefore, love is not pessimistic. This kind of hope is not based on the changes that occur in the government or the changes offered by the charlatans of trades, or those offered by the horoscope or the reading of the letters. Love awaits everything; that is, he is patient until he sees the total fulfillment of the best well-being in the other person. It is here that we need a special grace.
How many people (women, men, shepherds, children, etc.) are waiting for the manifestation of God's power over what they expect. Only a person who loves knows how to wait until the end. Love awaits everything. He doesn't run out of patience. You have the fuel to reach the end of your goal.
