       We have now considered all nine of the Fruit of the Spirit as listed in Galatians chapter 5. I hope everyone now as a better understanding of them, and my hope is that we all identified areas where we can make in improvement, and that we will indeed make those improvements. We always wanting to be growing in our lives, as Christians, and should never be at a standstill in our growth. I would like also to note that really, there are likely more fruits from the Spirit besides those listed in the Galatians chapter 5 passage. Note how Paul said in the passage, “against such things there is no law.” The words ‘such things’ seem to open the door for even more fruits than the ones he listed. Note another passage from Paul in Colossians 3: “Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive” (Colossians 3:12, 13, ESV). So, from these verses, we might add compassion, humility, and meekness for example.
