Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth (1 Cor 13:6 NIV)
And Jesus is the Truth. In John 14:6 NIV, Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
God's Word is Truth too. In John 17:17b NIV, Jesus declared in His prayer to Father God: Your word is Truth
We see in Apostle John and Apostle Paul, and above all in the Lord Jesus
Christ Himself, perfect examples of those who live out and practise BOTH
Love AND Truth. They did not practise one while neglecting the other. Neither did they emphasize Truth alone forsaking Love nor did they emphasize Love alone forsaking Truth. They lived in both Love AND Truth. So should we. Love walks hand in hand
with Truth. We must walk in love always without ever compromising the truth.
Yes, Love does not delight in evil (lies, falsehood, immorality, corruption...) but
rejoices in the truth (1 Cor 13:6 NIV).
