The Fruit of the Spirit
We began with the verse 2 Timothy 3: 16, 17, those verses which outline that
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for (which together encompass) “instruction in righteousness”.
The 2 sets of church epistles of Romans, Corinthians, Galatians, and Ephesians, Philipians, Colossians, have been grouped into doctrine, reproof, and correction type epistles respectively.
Doctrine being the right way of believing, reproof being required when one strays from right doctrine, and correction being required, when wrong doctrine has been practised for a long time, that it becomes in the eyes of the one doing it, as being the “right way.”
Moving back to Galatians, Paul expresses in amazement how quickly the believers were removed from Christ, unto another Gospel. (Gal 1: 6) The move away from right doctrine was well on the way. Paul warns against “false brethern” ( Gal 2: 4) who came in to bring bondage. It seemed that it had worked because Paul confronted Peter who was to be blamed (Gal 2: 11) for not standing in the liberty. This was manifest in separation of the Jews from the non jews.
In Gal 3: 1 Paul states directly that he believes that the Galation church had been bewitched into not obeying the truth. In Galatians Paul decries the weak and begerly elements (Galatians 4:9) the Galatians had turned to which bring only serve to bring into bondage.
In Galatians 5: 1. The Galatians are urged to not be entangled with the “yoke of Bondage”, but to stand fast in the Liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free.
The works of the flesh are set in Sharp contrast to the fruit of the spirit in Galatians chapter 5.
