Berean Standard Bible

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,”

Galatians 5:22

Save as image

Study note

Paul wrote Galatians to churches that were being pressured to adopt the Jewish law, especially circumcision, as necessary for belonging to God's people. In chapter 5 he insists that Christians are free, but that freedom is for loving service, not self-indulgence.
