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 Fruit of the Spirit: Joy

This sermon examines the fruit of the Spirit, emphasizing joy as a key Christian witness per Galatians 5. Joy, a divine command, stems from the Holy Spirit and Jesus, the source of unshakable joy (Psalm 16:11, John 15:11), not worldly circumstances. Rooted in Christ’s grace, this joy testifies to others, reflecting God’s grace amid suffering, as Spurgeon said, a Christian’s life is their best sermon. If lacking joy, we must repent and root ourselves in Jesus, the living water, for true joy.

The Fruit of the Spirit: Love

On Father’s Day, God calls men to initiate love and forgiveness, as Jesus did. The sermon series on the fruit of the Spirit highlights love as the core, producing joy, peace, and patience when rooted in the gospel. Despite Satan’s deceptive lies, true fruitfulness comes from trusting Christ’s righteousness. Though our “buckets leak,” Paul’s prayer in Ephesians 3 shows we can love sacrificially by being filled with the Spirit to grasp Christ’s boundless love.

Pentecost: Boldness for Mission

On Pentecost, we celebrate the Holy Spirit’s transformative power, fulfilling God’s promise to dwell with us, as seen in Acts 2, when the Spirit enabled bold gospel proclamation, reversing Babel’s confusion for Christ’s glory. The Spirit assures us as God’s children, empowering us to witness through lives bearing love and joy, embodying, as D.L. Moody said, a sermon for the 99 who read the Christian over the Bible.

Putting on Joyful Cloths

In Colossians 3, Paul continues the theme of the supremacy of Jesus Christ and His sufficient work in our lives. In fact Paul takes it to another level by proclaiming that when we put our faith in Jesus, our lives are hidden with Christ. In light of this joyful assurance we are called to seek the things that are above and to live as the true citizens of God’s glorious kingdom.

A Superior Attraction

A Superior Attraction

Paul presents a clear, well-reasoned case for the supremacy of Jesus Christ. Knowing about His supremacy doesn’t make Him supreme in our lives; our insecurities stem from trying to make ourselves supreme, knowing we can’t save ourselves. What truly draws us to Jesus is understanding that He uses His supremacy for us out of love.
