Subject: Moralism vs Saved and Sanctified |
Bible Note: "The fruit of the Spirit, then, is a description of the righteousness that is produced by the Spirit in the life of the believer in Jesus Christ, under the operation of the new covenant, which involves grace and faith. "To see this passage and the fruit of the Spirit as merely a list of vices and virtues, is to miss the point and to move in the direction of a new legalism. Paul did not envision his converts being saved from sin, freed from the law, only to become slaves to concepts of virtue and morality administered like clubhouse rules! These are not virtues we are to strive to possess, they are the naturally growing fruit of the Spirit led and empowered life. Just as the vices are a list of what flows out of the flesh as a natural outflow of a sinful heart, so the fruit of the Spirit are the overflow of a saved and sanctified, in which the Holy Spirit operates." --Paul Evans (2015) pastor of Wilmington First Pentecostal Church |
