Which passage clarifies the love of God manifested in holiness?

• A. Romans 8
• B. Galatians 5
• C. 1 Corinthians 13
• D. Ephesians 2

Answer: (C)

The main idea tested is how God’s love expresses itself through a holy life. 1 Corinthians 13 shows love in concrete, actionable terms—patience, kindness, humility, and perseverance—and it explains that without love, even impressive spiritual displays are empty. This makes it the clearest passage for understanding how the love of God is manifested in holiness: love becomes the living evidence of a transformed life, guiding how believers treat others and live out righteousness. The other passages touch related themes—life in the Spirit, the fruit of the Spirit, and salvation leading to good works—but they don’t center the definition and daily practice of love in the same direct, compelling way that 1 Corinthians 13 does.
