And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profits me nothing.
All Commentaries on 1 Corinthians 13:3 Go To 1 Corinthians 13
Cyprian of Carthage
AD 258
S Christ before men and is baptized in his own blood? And yet even this baptism does not benefit a heretic, although he has confessed Christ, and been put to death outside the Church, unless the patrons and advocates of heretics declare that the heretics who are slain in a false confession of Christ are martyrs, and assign to them the glory and the crown of martyrdom contrary to the testimony of the apostle, who says that it will profit them nothing although they were burnt and slain.
