Love is .......... (pt 4)

1 Corinthians 13 says Love is patient and kind, love does not envy or boast, It is NOT Arrogant or Rude.........

Here is what Websters has to say about Arrogant and Rude

Arrogant

* Exaggerating or disposed to exaggerate ones own worth or importance often by an overbearing manner

*Proceeding from or characterized by arrogance -

Arrogance

*An attitude of superiority manifested in an overbearing manner or in presumptuous claims or assumptions

Rude -

* Being in a rough unfinished state:

Crude

Natural

Raw

Primitive

Undeveloped

Simple

Elemental

*Lacking refinement or delicacy

Ignorant

Unlearned

Inelegant

Uncouth

*Offensive in manner or action

Discourteous

Uncivilized

Savage

Course

Vulgar

As much as I could go through and break down each word of these descriptions I think we can see these are not desirable ways to be and definitely desirable to God.

So if Love is not Arrogant (with an overbearing attitude of Superiority) or Rude (Vulgar, Ignorant, Crude, Underdeveloped or Savage), then I/we need to be elegant, courteous, and civilized in our actions towards others! Selah
