The Fruit

The Fruit 


But the fruit of the Spirit is
 love, joy, peace,
 longsuffering, gentleness, goodness,
 faith, Meekness, temperance:
 against such there is no law.
 Galatians 5:22-23 

The gist of the Gospel message and and GOD'S commandment is,
FAITH working through LOVE.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision avails anything,
 but faith working through love. 
 Galatians 5:6 

Love is the expression of desiring the very best for the person you love.

Loving GOD means:
Listen
Obey
Value
Express

Loving others means:
Listen
Overlook shortcomings
Value
Express


Faith has to progress to Fruit.
Faithfulness will manifest in Fruitfulness.

The fruit of the Spirit is the various aspects of GOD'S love.
This describes my relationship with GOD
and my relationship with others.

Faith, Meekness and Self-Control
Deepen my fruit-bearing relationship with GOD.

Love, Joy and Peace
Flow out of my relationship with GOD.

The outcome of my relationship with GOD
 is my fruitful relationship with others in
Patience, Gentleness and Goodness.
