@Corrin (on 1 Corinthians 13:5)
I'm trying to understand why that was the translation of "thinketh no evil"

1 Corinthians 13:5 KJV - 5 Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Other inferior versions of the Bible have this verse end with " it (love) keeps no record of wrongs." This is simply not true. God is love and His Word is full of records of wrongs against Himself and others. This doesn't mean we don't work on forgiviving others, but forgiveness does not equal forgetting. God created our brains with a memory that stores emotionally-laden events permanently. It is impossible to forget meaningful events in our lives whether they are negative or positive.
