Shebu walks us through the passage from Galatians 5:13–26 is presented as a clear summons to a Christian way of life shaped by the Holy Spirit. Believers are reminded that the freedom Christ provides is not freedom to indulge selfish desires but a freedom that calls for mutual service expressed through love. Two contrasting patterns of life are set before every follower: the visible, destructive works of the flesh and the singular, life-giving fruit produced by the Spirit. The list of fleshly deeds exposes how self-centred passions fracture community and estrange people from God’s rule; the catalogue of the Spirit’s fruit—love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control—portrays a unified character that issues from God’s presence within.Want to know more about CGCC?
