Galatians 3 vs 22&23-the fruit of the Spirit is first salvation, letting Jesus into one's heart to accept his mercy and grace (undeserved favor) to get forgiven sin and be our friend (Revelation 1vs1&3vs19&20) -then comes true love, joy, peace, longsuffering, self control, brotherly/sisterly love...

The Bible says that we shall be known by our fruits...and we shall know THEM by their fruits.....
The fruits in my life are the fruits of the Spirit......amen and amen! It requires daily sacrifice to Jesus......Then said Jesus unto His disciples; if any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. Matthew 16:24

The scripture you quoted and twisted is actually from Galatians chapter 5
Walking in the Spirit
16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. 18 But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
19 Now the works of the flesh are evident, which are: *adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, 21 envy, *murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.
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. 24 And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. 25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit. 26 Let us not become conceited, provoking one another, envying one another.

Love, peace, joy, gentleness, meekness, goodness, kindness, patience, self control. I am a new creature in Christ Jesus, because God took away my old spirit and then He gave me Himself, the Holy Spirit. Also another fruit of the Spirit, we have a love for the Brethren, 1 John. I am not perfect, but in God's eyes, I am, because in His eyes, He can see the end from the beginning. I am not perfect at the moment, but I am a lot better than I use to be! Praise God!

I in simple terms prefer to appreciate if the atheist can surely grant the superb answer as they are so constructive that God did not create life? - i can teach that the biblical version is a fantasy. All of genesis became into plagiarized from the Sumerian pills having not something to do with deities so "god bobbing up life" is a fantasy. - As to proving the place life got here from, we settle for a organic technique considering the fact that that has evidence. A deity magically forming life is a fantasy considering the fact which you have yet to teach a deity exists and that what youi use as a evidence is a nicely shown fantasy. - There you have actually evidence and evidence and no hypothesis.

David,
You are a Christian. Stop this evil and deceptive form of missionizing. It degrades Christianity.

. It is, by definition, impossible for it to be "jewish" to believe in jesus. "Jewish" is, by defintion, what jews have historically and contemporarily believe. Since in neither scenario do we find "believing in jesus", then we must clearly realize that belief in jesus is not something "jewish". You can call it "biblical" (and still be wrong), but certainly not "jewish".
. On the side, the subject of Isaiah 53 is promised a "long life" and "seed" (i.e. physical children). Clearly this isn't about jesus.
. And Isaiah 7 is clearly not messianic if you read the whole chapter. and "alma" doesn't mean virgin either. You'd know that if you spoke hebrew (I guess it wasn't part of your "extensive jewish upbringing", huh?)
. On the side, Isaiah 9 can't be about jesus since, according to christianity, he's the "son" not the "father" (as the verse states). Nor did he have control of the government (to the contrary, the roman government killed him). And he certainly did not establish "endless peace".

oh, and lastly, I've decided that you truly epitomize everything I find intensely intellectually unsatisfying about christianity. (And you clearly do not understand hebrew.)

22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,
galations 5 and before it
19The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.

the fruit of genuine religion must be love of God, otherwise, it's just an institution that has diverted its perspective to promote spiritual understanding to deisre to control and preach on others.

what you are quoting in not in the Holy Scriptures. It is the book made up by Christians.
