Title: Fruit of the Spirit/Rev 2:29
Contents Bible: Revelation 2:29 / Hymns: 173
The Church and the Holy Spirit are inseparable, like the Church and Christ. The church is born in the presence of the Holy Spirit and works to testify of Christ according to the direction and power of the Holy Spirit. To that end, the Holy Spirit has made the church one, and the gospel preached by the church has the power to save mankind. The church works by the Spirit, and the Spirit does the work of Christ through the church.
'Love' is the foundation of Christian faith and ethics. If we summarize the Ten Commandments, we can divide them into love for God and love for man. Love for God is the basis of love, and love for man is the basis of ethics.
(Acts 6:15) All those who were seated in the council looked at Stephen and saw that his face was like the face of an angel.
This holy joy is the outward expression of emotion that only those who have received God's grace can enjoy. This joy is not a joy that disappears, but an eternal joy. That is why the saints rejoice in tribulation and rejoice even in persecution. (Stephan, Paul, and Silas)
(James 3:18) Peacemakers sow in peace and reap the fruit of righteousness.
Reconciliation with God brings peace with oneself and with others. It plays a role in cleaning up the source of conflict.
(James 1:12) Blessed is the man who endures temptation, for after he has been approved in this he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love him.
The Christian's patience is the patience to overcome temptation, the patience to hope for salvation, and the patience to achieve refinement and hope.
(Colossians 3:12) Therefore, as God's chosen, holy and beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and longsuffering.
The source of mercy is love. It is compassion, cooperation, and kindness given out of love.
(James 4:17) Therefore, if a man knows to do good and does not do it, it is sin
Good good refers to more active good. Rather than doing obligatory passive good, you should do good positively and actively. It should be given with love in secret, without pretense.
Loyalty means faith or fidelity. Let's remember that it is a basic Christian attitude and driving force.
(Matthew 11:29) Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.
It is an inner virtue of a humble spirit, which is expressed in the softness of interpersonal relationships. It is an attitude of accepting without attacking, obedience rather than rebellion, but unshakable conviction, and wise potential challenge ability.
(1 Corinthians 10:12) Therefore, let him who thinks he is standing beware lest he fall.
As the ability of self-regulation, it means not only moderation and refinement of evil desires, but also control and harmony of positive desires.
