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
Augustine of Hippo
AD 430
Giving one’s body to be burned is not a license to commit suicide but a command not to resist suffering if the alternative is being forced to do wrong. Letter , To Donatus.
