#1 Activate The Fruit of the Spirit in your Life / Joseph Angel LTD


Joseph Angel Ministries The Rhema Word Study / TRWS Episode #1 The Fruit of the Spirit Galatians 5:22-23 Minister Joseph Angel LTD Christreign TV The Fruit of the Holy Spirit is a biblical term that sums up nine attributes of a person or community living in accord with the Holy Spirit, according to chapter 5 of the Epistle to the Galatians: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." The fruit is contrasted with the works of the flesh which immediately precede it in this chapter. Catholic tradition follows the Vulgate version of Galatians in listing 12 fruits: charity, joy, peace, patience, benignity (kindness), goodness, longanimity (generosity), mildness (gentleness), faith, modesty, continency (self-control), and chastity. This tradition was defended by Thomas Aquinas in his work Summa Theologica. Aquinas pointed out that numbered among the fruits of the Holy Spirit are certain virtues, such as charity, meekness, faith, and chastity. Augustine defined virtue as "a good habit consonant with our nature." Though traditionally discussed as nine attributes of the Fruit of the Spirit, the original Greek term translated as "fruit" is singular. Aquinas explained, "Consequently fruit is mentioned there in the singular, on account of its being generically one, though divided into many species which are spoken of as so many fruits." Augustine's commentary on Galatians 5:25-26, says, "the Apostle had no intention of teaching us how many [either work of the flesh, or fruits of the Spirit] there are; but to show how the former should be avoided, and the latter sought after.
