How's your fruit? The first instruction given to humankind was to be fruitful and multiply. The Fruit of the Spirit are not gifts like the spiritual gifts discussed in Book Four - I Am Supernatural. Fruit of the Spirit represents the character traits of God's children.
Being fruitful is a lot different than being fruity. Fruit of the Spirit is a biblical term describing nine attributes of Jesus that become evident in the life of someone who submits their life to the Lord. Without the Holy Spirit functioning in your life, contamination is a high risk. You need good fruit to avoid contamination. I Am Fruitful discusses the nine spiritual fruit found in Galatians 5 and the hindrances that interrupt or halt their production. The Fruit of the Spirit includes the following:
Love
Kindness
Gentleness
Joy
Goodness
Patience (Long-suffering)
Peace
Faithfulness
Self-control (Temperance)
