29.What relationship does law have to the fruit of the Spirit?

Back to Study the Book of Galatians


Back to Chapter Five.......


There is no law against love, joy, peace, patience, self-restraint.

Paul is showing the saints in Galatia how the Gospel of Christ differs from the Law of Moses. The Law of Moses consists of rules that must be observed by those who are under the authority of the Law.

The Gospel of Christ consists of the Holy Spirit who is abiding in us. The Holy Spirit is forming Christ in us. The formation of Christ in us is revealed in our personality, as love, joy, peace, gentleness, faithfulness begin to be demonstrated in our actions, our words, and our motives and imaginations.

The only "law" that is against love, joy, and peace is the law of sin that dwells in our flesh.
