The fruit of the Holy Spirit

The fruit of the Holy Spirit Preaching Outline on Galatians 5:22-23 - "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law. ". Introduction In the epistle to the Galatians, the apostle Paul presents the obvious marks of those who experience the new birth. Those who allow themselves to be dominated by the Holy Spirit bear "fruit". A set of virtues that authenticate the product of the one who is regenerated in Jesus. A Spirit at work on the inside, reflecting Christ on the outside. Development Nine virtues coming from the same Spirit. Nine inseparable virtues that make up an essential unity in this fruit. Nine virtues that necessarily contrast the so-called "works of the flesh". They are not adornments to sophisticate our image, they are essential virtues that highlight the relevant action of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Christian and are part of a single spiritual development. Love Love is undoubtedly the original source of the other virtues. It is the most excellent path for Christians to follow. Agape" love, as Paul calls it, has several characteristics: it is capable of suffering, thinking good thoughts, not envying, being humble, being pure, not being selfish, always believing, delighting in the truth, having hope, the ability to endure. In short, we can say that it never fails! It ranks highest among the Christian virtues. God is love! Love is exemplified in the Word of God, designating God himself, showing the love of God and Christ for men, love between brothers, in short, love coming to the fore in all the purposes of this Holy Book. Enjoyment The Holy Spirit brings us a joy that is not based on circumstances, but on his love, his grace and his promises to us. A joy that is permanent and not artificial. A joy that trusts in God, that makes us strong even in tribulations. Peace The meaning of "this" peace is more than the absence of war and conflict. It is harmony, fullness in all areas of life. A peace that makes us promoters of God's kingdom on earth. Throughout his ministry, Christ promoted peace among men. The Holy Spirit awakens us to a commitment to peace. The Gospel enlists us to be instruments of peace, and leads us to dive in and enjoy it like someone enjoying a river on a hot day. Long-suffering Even before we receive this virtue from the Holy Spirit, we can observe it in God, who "tolerates" human beings despite their deviations. The long-suffering person is: persevering, patient, slow to anger or despair, does not seek revenge. It is an essential virtue in dealing with others. It leads us to always forgive, even if we have been offended. "An angry man stirs up strife, but a long-suffering man appeases wrath." Prov 15:18 Benignity It's kindness in action. It's love showing compassion. It's the willingness to be good, to think well of others; it means that we shouldn't judge people. Kindness makes us look "with good eyes". This virtue is linked to feeling. Kindness It differs from kindness in that it is an external quality. It is action, practice. Kindness, Generosity. Faith It's faith in the sense of FIDELITY, to God and to others. Meekness It is also one of the beatitudes. It combines strength and gentleness. With gentleness you argue in a tolerant way, face the truth without resentment and support the weakest. Own domain Also called temperance, it is the expression of a love that does not "lose control". This virtue seals us with a moral purity, controls passions and steadies the soul. It is the necessary balance in our relationships with people. "A patient man is better than a warrior; it is better to control your spirit than to conquer a city" Pr 16:33. Conclusion "But I say to you, walk in the Spirit, and you will never gratify the lust of the flesh; for the flesh is against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh, because they are opposed to each other, lest you do whatever you please. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law." Gal 5:16-18 "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. ". Galatians 5:22-23 Introduction In the epistle to the Galatians, the apostle Paul presents the obvious marks of those who experience the new birth.
