If we set a target or goal of being like Christ, our behavior will exhibit the fruit of the spirit as listed in Galatians 5:22-23. This fruit is the essential character of Christ, his nature. This teaching briefly examines the characteristics of the 9 listed fruits, also pointing out that the list is not exhaustive.
