The Character and Fruits of a Christian

Truth

John 14:6  

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

John 17:17  

Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

Ephesians 4:14-15

14 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming.

15 Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ.

Philippians 4:8  

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

Victory

1 Corinthians 15:57  

But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

1 John 5:4  

For everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.

Watchfulness

Mark 13:34-37 

34 It's like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch.

35 “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn.

36 If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping.

37 What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’”

Worship

John 4:23-24  

23 Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.

24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”

Zeal

Romans 12:11  

Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.
