Bible Question: Thank you for the understanding of the sonship. EdB. now i would like to know the fruit of sonship can you help me to understand it? thank you. |
Bible Answer: Again you use a term that is not commonly used so I'm a little lost to provide you the definition you request. I might assume your talking of the fruit that accompany a saving relationship with Jesus Christ. They are commoningly referred to as the Fruit of the Spirit. They are found in Galatians 5:22-24 (NASB) 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. 24 Now those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. These fruit stand in contrast to the fruit of those that remain in the flesh as seen in Galatians 5:19-21 (NASB) 19 Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality, 20 idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions, 21 envying, drunkenness, carousing, and things like these, of which I forewarn you, just as I have forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. Again I'm a little lost with your use of the word sonship but I hope this answers your question. If not perhaps if you told me where your getting this concept of sonship or provide a definition of what it means to you. EdB |
