Chapter 12: We Produce the Fruits of the SpiritThe Son would be crucified and would die. But the Son would arise. And through His death and resurrection, He would send us the Holy Spirit. And through the Spirit, His children would produce His fruits. For the fruits of the Spirit are His works through our hands.
We are the harvest of His sowing. For the seed of the harvest has been sown, and the sower is our Lord Jesus Christ. (Matthew 13:37). For the seed is the Word, and the Word was made flesh. (Luke 8:11) And the Word dwelt with man, that the seed of His children could be sown. (Matthew 13:37) And the time is now near, for the beast has arrived, and the seal has been broken, and the harvest is ripe.What is required for a good harvest? A harvest requires three elements to survive. And these elements are water, sunlight, and oxygen; for without these three the harvest would perish. And any child of Christ requires three elements, in order to live in this world. And the first element is water, the sustenance of life with the Father.The second element is sunlight, the Light and the Son of God. And the third element is air, the breath of life and the Spirit. For without these Three, the harvest of His children would perish. 'For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.' (1 John 5:7) |
