362 The Fruit Of The Spirit #5a: Longsuffering

Galatians 5:22-23 (NKJV): 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law.

The fourth fruit listed is the fruit of longsuffering. This fruit has connection to us in three different areas: in regards to people, in regards to events and in regards to the promises or actually the provisions of God. This lesson is in regards to people. In other words, the ability of not losing patience with people.
