Did you get Your Fruit of the Spirit Today?

Have you ever thought about how you could creatively spread the gospel? Evangelism is the spreading of the Christian gospel by public preaching or personal witness. One might ask, “What is the gospel?” The gospel of Jesus Christ is the Heavenly Father’s plan for the happiness and salvation of His children. God sent Jesus to set an example of how we should live our lives. When we accept Jesus Christ as our savior and receive forgiveness of our sins, we will have everlasting life in heaven with our Heavenly Father.  

Did you know that you could spread the gospel in ways other than speaking? The way an individual carries themself signals to others what kind of person they may be. The way we interact with others, display kindness and present ourselves can cause others to wonder why we behave in this manner. As followers of Christ, we must spread the love of God. A person’s character displays who they are. The scriptures say you shall know them by their fruit. What traits does this individual have? How do they communicate with those around them? Are they kind to strangers and kind to their loved ones? These factors are a few examples of what is mentioned in the bible when it says you shall know them by their fruits. 

The purpose of an apple tree is to produce apples. You will know what type of tree it is when you see what kind of fruit grows on the tree. It is the same with people. You will discern an individual by the type of fruits they give off. In Galatians 5:22-23, there are nine fruits of the spirit. They are Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Gentleness, Faithfulness, & Self-Control. The nine fruits represent a godly character that we must seek to obtain as followers of Christ. The bible also says that we must walk in the spirit. All of these traits represent the spirit of God.

You could practice spreading the gospel by simply carrying yourselves in this manner. You could also exercise gaining the fruits of the spirit by what you wear. What you wear may serve as a reminder of how you should carry yourself. For example, if you want to improve on displaying acts of kindness, you can do this by wearing a hat or t-shirt that says, “Be kind!”. Wearing apparel that has the words of the fruit of the spirit will allow others to see and will allow them to receive a message. So you’ll be able to evangelize to others and work out your salvation by wearing apparel that will represent a godly character.  

We should spread kindness and spread love to one another because this is what Jesus did when He walked on this earth. This behavior displays the love of God. So by simply wearing apparel it will spread the gospel to others, serve as a reminder to yourself, and serve as a reminder to others what Christ is like and how we should be.
