The Fruit of the Spirit: Kindness

In this sermon, we examine kindness, a fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22-23, as a Christ-like action meeting human needs with sympathy, not just a gentle disposition. Rooted in God’s grace through Jesus (Romans 2:4, Ephesians 2), it enables believers to show kindness to the ungrateful, as taught in Luke 6, serving as a powerful witness to Christ, exemplified by Allison’s kindness through letters mission.

The Gospel Profit

Sometimes, we grow discouraged in our relationship with Jesus when we see no worldly gain. This sentiment echoes Malachi 3, where God’s people hardened their hearts, envying the prosperity of the wicked while they struggled. However, God’s promise is far greater—fulfilled through Jesus Christ, the sun of righteousness, who brings healing, remembrance, treasure, and eternal life beyond worldly measure.

Trusting in God’s Unchanging Faithfulness

God’s people faced the accusation of robbing Him due to their cold hearts, lacking joy, peace, and purpose. In love, He called them to return through joyful giving, promising blessings. Similarly, as followers of Christ, we lose joy and peace when giving feels burdensome. Today, God invites us to rediscover worship and discipleship by investing in Him with joy, peace, and hope for our Gospel Mission.

The Relentless Pursuit of a Loving God

God disciplines His disobedient children to protect us and bring us home when we wander.
