1 THE FRUIT OF THE HOLY SPIRIT Overview Randy Broberg Maranatha Bible College Fall 2016

2 Don t Be Misled By The Crowd Or The Music

3 Holy Spirit: Cause or Effect?

4 REVIEW: Pray for Filling Ephesians 3:15-19 I pray that according to the wealth of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in the inner person, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, so that, because you have been rooted and grounded in love, you may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and thus to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.

5 Live by the Spirit Galatians 5:15-17 But I say, live by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh. For the flesh has desires that are opposed to the Spirit, and the Spirit has desires that are opposed to the flesh, for these are in opposition to each other, so that you cannot do what you want.

6 Galatians 5:16-18 So I say, live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature. For the sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are in conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under law.

7 Galatians 5:19-21 The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity debauchery; idolatry witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 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.

8 Fruit of the HS in Galatians 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such things there is no law.

9 Galatians 5: Different Translations KJV NASB NIV ESV love love love love joy joy joy joy peace peace peace peace longsuffering patience patience patience goodness kindness kindness kindness faithfulness goodness goodness goodness gentleness faithfulness faithfulness faithfulness self-control gentleness gentleness gentleness temperance self-control self-control self-control

10 Fruit of the HS in Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God does not consist of food and drink, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

11 2 Cor. 6: But as God s servants, we have commended ourselves in every way, with great endurance, in persecutions, in difficulties, in distresses, 5 in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in troubles, in sleepless nights, in hunger, 6 by purity, by knowledge, by patience, by benevolence, by the Holy Spirit, by genuine love, 7 by truthful teaching, by the power of God, with weapons of righteousness both for the right hand and for the left, 8 through glory and dishonor, through slander and praise; regarded as impostors, and yet true; 9 as unknown, and yet wellknown; as dying and yet see! we continue to live; as those who are scourged and yet not executed; 10 as sorrowful, but always rejoicing, as poor, but making many rich, as having nothing, and yet possessing everything.

12 Fruit in 2 Corinthians 6:4-10 with great endurance, in persecutions, in difficulties, in distresses, in beatings, in imprisonments, in riots, in troubles, in sleepless nights, in hunger, by purity, by knowledge, by patience, by benevolence, by the Holy Spirit, by genuine love, by truthful teaching, by the power of God, with weapons of righteousness as sorrowful, but always rejoicing,

13 Different Fruit Lists Galatians 5 Romans 14 2 Corinthians 6 love, love joy joy joy peace peace patience, patience kindness, benevolence goodness righteousness righteousness faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

14 Live By The Spirit Galatians 5:24-25 Now those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. If we live by the Spirit, let us also behave in accordance with the Spirit.

15 Galatians 5:26 Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

16 Galatians 5: CONTEXT SPIRIT S FRUIT FRUIT OF FLESH TEXT AFTER love sexual immorality, Impurity, hatred, joy jealousy, envy; envying peace patience kindness discord, dissensions, factions provoking goodness selfish ambition conceited faithfulness gentleness self-control Idolatry, witchcraft fits of rage, drunkenness, debauchery; orgies, and the like.

Joy message) Both Both peace No (cf Peace message Both Both patience No Give Others kindness No Give Others goodness No Give Others faithfulness No Give Others gentleness No Give Others self-control Yes Receive Both
