Love is the Spirit's Fruit | Galatians 5:22-23

“The fruit of the Spirit is love.”Galatians 5:22Love is what we all need. But love is also what we find confusing, frustrating, and even scary. Love, in its purest form, means total sacrifice and total vulnerability. This is why the Bible insists that love is not something we can manufacture. Instead, it is what God’s Spirit produces in the life of a person who abides in Christ.I. Our Problem with Love “Anyone who does not love does not know God.” - 1 John 4:8aII. The Source of Love “God is love.” - 4:8b-9III. The Receiving of Love “He loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 4:10IV. Our Practice of Love “Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” - 4:11
