The Character and Fruits of a Christian

Stewardship

1 Corinthians 4:2  

Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.

2 Corinthians 9:6-7  

6 Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously.

7 Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Trust

Psalms 37:3-5  

3 Trust in the LORD and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture.

4 Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart.

5 Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him and he will do this:

Proverbs 3:5-6  

5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;

6 in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.

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  

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.
