Fruits of the Spirit is a continuation of our Spiritual Warfare series, which explored how to identify the enemy and how to win the battles we’re confronted with. In the Fourth Part of that Series, we covered the works of the flesh and how that maps to lawlessness. Now we are continuing to look at the second part of that same section of Galatians.
Speaking about His disciples, Yeshua said “you shall know them by their fruit,” and Paul writes that “the Fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness and Self-Control.”
Dig-in with us for this multi-part series to learn what these “fruits of the Spirit” actually look like and how to apply the lessons learned to our lives.
PLEASE NOTE: First Fruits Ministries' Bible Studies are lengthy because they are designed as comprehensive and coherent messages that address as many nuances of a topic as possible. You are invited to watch each message in part until you have completed them at your own pace.
