LOVE AND THE FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT

Love and the Fruit of the Spirit

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. We have come to know and have believed the love which God has for us. God is love, and the one who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him - and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us. [Gal 5:22-23, 1Jn 4:16, Rom 5:5]

This precious value, then, is for you who believe; but for those who disbelieve, "THE STONE WHICH THE BUILDERS REJECTED, THIS BECAME THE VERY CORNER stone," - we love, because He first loved us. [1Pe 2:7, 1Jn 4:19]

For the love of Christ controls us, having concluded this, that one died for all, therefore all died; and He died for all, so that they who live might no longer live for themselves, but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf. [2Co 5:14-15]

Now as to the love of the brethren, you have no need for anyone to write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another; "This is My commandment, that you love one another, - just as I have loved you. [1Th 4:9, Joh 15:12]

Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. - Walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma. [1Pe 4:8, Eph 5:2]

Of all the fruit of the Spirit, the greatest is LOVE!
