Wednesday night "What are you looking for?"

Romans 6:22
"But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the fruit you get leads to sanctification and its end eternal life."

Galatians 5:22-23 "the fruit of the Spirit are..."

1.  "But now" is drawing the line in time, between what you were, what you are, and even what you will become, but Paul is stating that RIGHT NOW!

2.  You and I have been set free from sin, the bondage, the work of sin and its power over us, what it desperately tries to lord over us.

3.  BUT NOW!!! we have become slaves/ bond servants, sold yourself and put under a NEW LORD, the KING of KINGS, rather HE purchased you from the ugly former rulers, SIN.

4. with this new bond to GOD, the fruit YOU get are: Galatians 5:22-23
1. love
2. joy
3.peace
4.patience
5. kindness
6. goodness
7. faithfulness
8. gentleness
9. long suffering

and this fruit leads to SANCTIFICATION

SANCTIFICATION IS BEING SET APART UNTO GOD!!!

When you take all of this and study it out, pray about it, meditate on it(mull it over in your mind and heart over and over)  you then are led to a glorious revelation, it ends in our eternal life, glory!!!

Grow in your relationship with God and the fruit he gives you, lead to sanctification and ultimately to your eternal life with him, amen.
