Frutos do Espírito
Os frutos do Espírito são evidências visíveis da presença de Deus na vida do crente. Amor, alegria, paz, paciência — são marcas que diferenciam os filhos de Deus no mundo.
O fruto do Espírito
O fruto do Espírito é amor, alegria, paz, paciência, amabilidade, bondade, fidelidade, mansidão e domínio próprio. Contra estas coisas não há lei.
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The law is not against such things.
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light — for the fruit of the light consists of all goodness, righteousness, and truth — testing what is pleasing to the Lord.
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peace-loving, gentle, compliant, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without pretense. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who cultivate peace.
Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you also were put to death in relation to the law through the body of Christ so that you may belong to another. You belong to him who was raised from the dead in order that we may bear fruit for God. For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions aroused through the law were working in us , to bear fruit for death. But now we have been released from the law, since we have died to what held us, so that we may serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the old letter of the law.
So what fruit was produced then from the things you are now ashamed of? The outcome of those things is death. But now, since you have been set free from sin and have become enslaved to God, you have your fruit, which results in sanctification — and the outcome is eternal life!
Permanecer em Cristo
Quem permanece em Cristo dá muito fruto. Toda árvore boa produz bons frutos — e é pelo fruto que se conhece a árvore.
Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me.I am the vine;you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit,because you can do nothing without me.
My Father is glorifiedby this: that you produce much fruit and prove to bemy disciples.
"A good tree doesn’t produce bad fruit; on the other hand, a bad tree doesn’t produce good fruit.,For each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs aren’t gathered from thornbushes, or grapes picked from a bramble bush.A good person produces good out of the good stored up in his heart. An evil person produces evil out of the evil stored up in his heart, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart.
Therefore produce fruit consistent with repentance.
Semear e colher
Quem semeia na justiça colherá fruto de vida. Os frutos do Espírito são a colheita de uma vida plantada no Senhor.
Sow righteousness for yourselves
and reap faithful love;
break up your unplowed ground.
It is time to seek the Lord
until he comes and sends righteousness
on you like the rain.
Tell the righteous that it will go well for them,
for they will eat the fruit of their labor.
Not only that, but we ourselves who have the Spirit as the firstfruits — we also groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for adoption, the redemption of our bodies.
My fruit is better than solid gold,
and my harvest than pure silver.
