Perfection

"For we know in part and we prophesy in part, ¹⁰but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. ¹¹... Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known."

Perfection and love are the same.
