The fruit of the Spirit
Everybody who has received eternal life through faith in Jesus Christ has received the Holy Spirit: “Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him” (Romans 8:9). “For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God” (Romans 8:14). This is the background of today’s text in Galatians. Being a Christian means living by the Spirit, and this should show in our daily lives. If the Holy Spirit dwells in our hearts, this should become visible in the “fruit” we bear. Living by faith is not just believing certain theological truths, it includes being transformed by the Spirit and living according to God’s will.
Paul mentions nine elements of “the fruit of the Spirit”: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). During this series, we will have a closer look at each of these. We will see how they reflect God’s character, and how they work out in the life of a Christian.
