A Better Way – Week Three

January 9, 2022

Love, Joy and Peace

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” 
GALATIANS 5:22-23

“The fruit of the Spirit is the character of Jesus Christ produced by the Spirit of Christ in the life of a follower of Christ.”
SKIP HEITZIG

 

Foundational Principle:

“Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.”  JOHN 15:4

 


LOVE • JOY • PEACE

1. LOVE: “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the love of God be in that person? Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”  1 JOHN 3:16-18

 

Love is produced by:
of His sacrifice
of His sacrifice

2. JOY: “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me — put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.”  PHILIPPIANS 4:4-9

Joy is produced by:
•  of Christ
on Christ
about life

3. PEACE:

“Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.”  COLOSSIANS 3:15-16

Peace is produced by
• 
God and others
about God with others
to others
