Against such there is no law
In the book of Galatians we read,
“The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law."Galatians 5:19-23
Here we see defined the sinful nature and the Fruit of the Spirit. It is given to us so that we as true Christians. As true followers of Christ Jesus can tell right from wrong. It is in effect a black and white template for us to judge what is right and wrong.
Here’s a checklist for those who claim to be true followers of Jesus,
The fruit of the Spirit is,
Love
Joy
Peace,
Patience,
Kindness,
Goodness,
Faithfulness,
Gentleness,
Self-control.
And as the writer points out there is no law against showing these attributes.
Are you showing the attributes of the fruit of the Spirit?
Please think about it.
