When I care about what is beneficial for you, and you about what is beneficial for me, then there will be no place for vainglory, nor for quarrels, nor for anything bad whatsoever, but life will be angelic and divine.

Thirdly, he urges them to mutual care, saying let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others: "That the members may have the same care for one another" (1 Cor. 12:25); "Love does not insist on its own way" (1 Cor. 13:5).
