fruit of the spirit

[Arphaxad]

isn't it neat how someone can read the same scripture dozens of times and than one day see it clearly?

Gal. 5:22-23 But the fruit of the spirit is love,joy,peace,longsuffering,kindness,goodness,fau thfulness,gentleness,self-control. Against such there is no law.

i was reading this today and noticed that there are not 9 fruits of the spirit, but just one fruit that contains these 9 characteristics. isn't that neat?

Ah yes, the completed work of Christ in our lives brings forth all of the characteristics of the fruit of the Spirit.
