The Fruit of the Spirit, Part 2 (Galatians 5:16–26) John MacArthur

Summary

The sermon emphasizes "walking by the Spirit" as the core of the Christian life, contrasting the futile deeds of the flesh with the transformative fruit of the Spirit, such as love and joy. Drawing from Galatians 5, it highlights that true righteousness comes not from self-effort or law-keeping, but from reliance on the Holy Spirit. The practical takeaway is to embrace a life empowered by the Spirit, taking life one step at a time in accordance with God's Word, and recognizing believers' identity asChrist-like, learners, family members, and willing slaves of Christ.
