Fruit of the
Spirit
(Galations 5:22-26)
In verses previous to these, the Apostle
Paul deals with the Works of the Flesh. The flesh refers
to the fallen Nature of Man still fighting against the New
Creation of the New Man in Christ Jesus.
The Flesh lives according to its own energy; the Spirit
produces Fruit according to the Work of the Holy Spirit.
Read Romans 7 and
Galations 5
- Fruit of the Spirit pertains to Character
- Fruit of the Spirit is from the Inside out
- Fruit of the Spirit is not by Law, but by a
Changed Heart
- Fruit of the Spirit is a process, continuing to
work daily in a believer's life.
