The Fruit of the Spirit

The Fruit of the Spirit is about the new life of the person who has chosen to follow Jesus and is filled with the Spirit of God – the Holy Spirit. We read about it in Galatians 5:16-26 where the apostle Paul compares our old life of sin (works of the flesh) with the new man who has been filled with God’s Spirit and is starting to lead a new life (filled with the fruit of the Spirit). The comparison is drawn between our worldly behaviour (gossip, cursing, lies, murder, stealing, anger, unkindness, idolatry, enmity, sorcery, drunkenness, jealousy) is a road to destruction, and the road to life is one filled with love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Each fruit is compared with a biblical story and a real-life example.

The book is filled with colouring pages of the story, word search and a cut-and-play activity.

1. The Creation / Die Skepping
2. The Birth of Jesus / Die Geboorte van Jesus
3. Jesus is Alive / Jesus Leef
