Fruit of the Spirit, Biblical Counseling

When we speak of the "fruit of the Spirit" we are talking about the character and benefits of God's presence in the heart of a believer. Are we letting God rule and reign in our hearts? Or are we still showing signs of our old carnal nature; self-centered, uptight, arrogant and rude? It would be good to examine your heart, and how you have been treating others, especially those that are hard to love. We need to "put on the new man which was created according to God, in righteousness and true holiness" Ephesians 4:24. Amen?
