HUMILY IN THE 9 FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT

AS SEEN IN THE LIFE OF CHRIST



But the fruit of the Spirit is:

1. LOVE: Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love. (John 13:1 NIV)

2. JOY: At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. (Luk 10:21 NIV)

3. PEACE: Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. (Joh 14:27 NIV)

4. PATIENCE: But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life. (1Ti 1:16 NIV)

5. KINDNESS: But when the kindness and Love of God our Savior appeared, 5 he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, (Tit 3:4-5 NIV)

6. GOODNESS: "I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. (Joh 10:11 NIV)

7. FAITHFULNESS: Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. 11 Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him; 12 if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us. 13 if we are faithless, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself. (2Ti 2:10-13 NIV)

8. GENTLENESS: Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." (Mat 11:29-1 NIV)

9. SELF-CONTROL: For even Christ did not please himself but, as it is written: "The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me." (Rom 15:3 NIV)
Against such things there is no law. (Gal 5:22-23 NIV)
