Catechism Paragraph

¶ 1826

"If I . . . have not Charity," says the Apostle, "I am Nothing." Whatever my privilege, Service, or even Virtue, "if I . . . have not charity, I gain nothing." 103 Charity is superior to all the Virtues. It is the first of the theological virtues: "So Faith, Hope, charity abide, these three. But the greatest of these is charity." 104
