Quick Study "Spirit v.s Flesh. . .Fruit Of The Spirit"

We have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. So if we live by the spirit, we need to walk by the spirit (Galatians 5:24-25). So what are the fruits of the spirit? Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. The fruits of the spirit are only offered by the Father. If we walk by the spirit, we will not carry out the desires of the flesh. If we choose to walk in the flesh, we can walk in the spirit. The only way that you can show God's love is by having God as the center of your life. Nothing good comes from the world. The fruits of the spirit are good, and good comes from God. So if you are a Christian, take a look at your life and make sure that you are practicing the fruits of the spirit. Since we have crucified the flesh, we are no longer sinners. Since we have been made righteous, we can live knowing that we are filled with God's love and promises.

Scripture Reading Galatians 5:24-25, Galatians 5:16, Romans 6:6
