The fruit of the Spirit.
What is the character of Christ really like? What is the nature of His life?
2 Corinthians 3:8
will not the ministry of the Spirit be even more glorious?
Galatians 5:22-23
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
The Fruit of the Spirit is a beautiful word-picture of Christ’s Character. Each fruit is a specific quality of His life – an aspect of His being. The same is seen in nature. White light is broken up into all of the colours of the rainbow when it passes through a glass prism. The Fruit of the Spirit is the rainbow colors of Christ’s life.
The Fruit of the Spirit speaks of the beautiful aspects of Christ’s life. We might therefore outline the Fruit of the Spirit as follows:
1. Inward Blessings
a. Love – being lovely within
b. Joy – being joyful within
c. Peace – being peaceful within
2. Outward Blessings
a. Patience – patient with others
b. Kindness – kind to others
c. Goodness – good to others
3. Upward Blessings
a. Faithfulness – Faithful to God
b. Meekness – humble before God
c. Self-control – controlled by God
Thoughts
. Doing little things with a strong desire to please God makes them really great.
-Francis de Sales
. You can see God from anywhere if your mind is set to love and obey Him. - A. W. Tozer
. It’s difficult to imagine anything more nourishing to the soul than family life. -Thomas Moore
