Winger concludes the exegesis by restating Paul's actual primary argument.

"So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love." Winger emphasizes that the whole discussion of gift cessation is secondary to Paul's point that love is eternal and must be the center of the Christian's character and behavior. Spiritual gifts are tools; love is the goal.
