Distinct Fruits of the Spirit: Pastor Fred Price Jr. teaches on the fruits of the recreated spirit: long-suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Although similar, each fruit has unique characteristics.
Long-Suffering: Believers are called to walk worthy of the Lord’s calling with long-suffering toward one another (Ephesians 4:1-3; Colossians 1:9-12).
Brotherly Kindness: We are to exhibit brotherly kindness toward fellow believers in Christ (2 Peter 1:5-7).
Goodness: Our actions should reflect goodness, even toward unbelievers (Psalm 27:13).
Faithfulness: While many may speak of good deeds, true faithfulness is essential (Proverbs 20:6).
Gentleness: Believers are reminded to be in subjection to leaders and rulers with a spirit of gentleness (Titus 3:1-2).
Self-Control: Exercising self-control in all things leads to obtaining the imperishable crown (1 Corinthians 9:24-27).
In summary, “Back to Basics: Long-Suffering, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-Control 101” encourages believers to cultivate these fruits through the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
