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; against such things there is no law.
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of the Spirit is found in all goodness, righteousness, and truth). Carefully determine what is pleasing to the Lord.
But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, easily entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, impartial, and unhypocritical. And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
So then, my brothers, you also were put to death with respect to the law through the body of Christ, so that you might be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, so that we might bear fruit for God. For when we were in the flesh, our sinful passions, which were aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit leading to death. But now we have been released from the law, having died to that by which we were held, so that we may serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.
So what fruit did you have at that time from the things of which you are now ashamed? The end result of those things is death. But now that you have been set free from sin and become slaves of God, you have fruit that leads to sanctification, and the end result 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.
Abide in me, and I will abide in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me, and I in him, bears much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing.
My Father is glorified when you bear much are not in the main Greek text but have been added for the sake of clarity.}fruit, and by doing so you will be my disciples.
"No good tree produces bad fruit, nor does a bad tree produce good fruit. Each tree is known by its own fruit. People do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they pick grapes from a bramble bush. The good person brings good things out of the good treasure of his heart, and the evil person brings evil things out of the evil treasure of his heart, for out of the abundance of his heart his mouth speaks.
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.
Not only that, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we eagerly await our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.
