The Fruit of The Holy Spirit |
As
Christians or followers of Jesus Christ we know that when Jesus Christ is
present in our hearts, minds and souls as a whole, we bear or produce the fruit
of The Holy Spirit. Or in other words, when we have The Holy Spirit within us
we bear His fruit-when we have the evil spirit within us, we bear his fruit, metaphorically speaking.
Both “fruits” either from The Holy Spirit or the evil spirit comes from a
“tree” under this entire universe, "the tree of life" or "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil": and mind you, there are only two trees under
this entire universe (metaphorically speaking). Define… So what is “the” fruit of the spirit referring
to? The fruit of the spirit can be a fruit of The Holy Spirit or the evil
spirit-these are characters of either spirits which illuminates their
tree-principality: whether it be God’s principality which is based on love or
satan’s principality which is based on selfishness. The Fruit of the spirit found in The Holy Bible is actually reffering to "The Fruit of The Holy Spirit." To better understand the
entire context, let’s define everything from scratch to help us better
understand the term “The Fruit of The Holy Spirit”.
Tree of Life |
Mind
you that every fruit comes from a tree, common sense would tell us that! There
are only two trees within this entire universe that bears fruits that stand out within the context of the Great Controversy according to
The Holy Bible, metaphorically speaking, "tree of life" and "the tree of the knowledge of good and evil." Repeating to emphazies-the tree of Life and the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil: the tree of life is God, His Community and His
Principality, while the tree of the knowledge of good and evil is actually
satan, his community and his principality. Genesis 2:9 states, “And out of the
ground the Lord God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good
for food. The tree of life was also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of
the knowledge of good and evil.” Physically and literally available for one’s
eye to see like in the first sentence of the text above, God created every tree
that is pleasant for food, eating-which is something physical (The God that is
love created them)-but as we can see in the next sentence that followed, God
did not create The Tree of life since He is the way, the truth, and the
“LIFE”-the author or creator of life, that is why the sentence stated that “the
tree of life was in the midst”, meaning, it was already there and God did not
created it because it was God and His Community of abiding in His Principality of Love. Christ also clearly stated that He is the true
vine while God the Father is the Vine dresser from the tree of life within John 15:1, “I am the true vine, and My Father
is the vinedresser.” Although God is “The” Creator (which created heavenly
beings like angles (including Lucifer), He did not create the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil. Meaning from the moment iniquity was found
within Lucifer (which is a mystery to us mankind) in heaven before he was cast
out with his one-third angles down to planet earth, the tree of the knowledge
of good and evil was created through and by Lucifer (which within his heart, corrupting other angels in heaven, forming his community based on his principality of selfishness). But one would ask, “Why
would God place the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, with the tree of
life in the midst of the garden if He knew it was harmful to mankind?” Well God
placed both trees in the midst of the garden simply because He is love, His
principality and character is love-love doesn’t forces but allows someone to
choose. Because He is love, He gave Adam and Eve (mankind) the power to choose
between satan’s principality or His principality, in which he already cast satan and his angels (community) down to earth. Also, if He had destroyed the
tree of the knowledge of good or evil, satan, or satan’s principality and his followers (the other angels who chose to believe in him and follow his principality) when
iniquity or sin was found within Lucifer or satan, than that would mean He is
not love: but thankfully He is! So now we can see clearly that the tree of life
is in fact God's Community based on His character and His principality of love-while the tree of
the knowledge of good and evil is in fact satan's community based on his character and principality
which is selfishness.
Physically
and literally speaking, common sense would tell us that a tree can bear only
“ONE” fruit of it’s own kind and not a variety of fruits in a tree of a kind.
For instance, a mango tree can bear or produce only mango fruit and, not apple,
orange and banana at the same time. Well one would ask, “Then why do we have
many fruits of The Holy Spirit as mentioned in Galatians 5:22-23 like love, joy,
peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and
self-control when a tree supposed to bear only one fruit?” Well the answer is
yes, the tree of life does bear “ONE” fruit. All these qualities like love, joy, peace, longsuffering,
goodness, kindness, gentleness, and self-control are all “IN” a single fruit
that comes from the tree of life-what we may produce when we have Jesus Christ within our hearts (us) through The Holy Spirit . Also, all the qualities that are entirely
opposite to the qualities from the fruit that the tree of life produces are from
the tree of the knowledge of good and evil in a singSproduce, also!
As
human beings alive here on planet earth, we can bear only one kind of fruit from
one of the two trees and not both at the same time. Or in other words, it’s
impossible to bear both fruits from the two trees at the same time since a
branch from a tree can produce a fruit of the tree’s kind, originality, or
breed and not a fruit from a tree of another breed, originality or kind, metaphorically speaking. To
make it clearer since there are two trees under this entire universe
metaphorically speaking, we can either be branches to the tree of life or
branches to the tree of the knowledge of good and evil while bearing or
producing a fruit according to the type of tree (tree of life or tree of the
knowledge of good and evil)-and mind you that there is no middle ground since
there are only two trees (either you belong to one, or to the other). If we desire
to be connected to the tree of life as branches, and to our true vine which is
Jesus Christ, than we would openly and willingly ask for the Holy Spirit to
come and abide within us. Now, when we have The Holy Spirit within us (which simply means we are connected to the true vine which makes us a part of the tree of life as branches)
we can bear or produce “the” fruit of The Holy Spirit. John 15:5-6 states, “I
am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in me and I in Him, bears much
fruit; for without me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is
cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into
the fire, and they are burned.”And mind you, only branches from the tree of the
knowledge of good and evil will be withered and thrown into the fire when Jesus
Christ comes again.
It
is a necessity to be a branch connected to our true vine Jesus Christ, since He
is the true way that leads to life-The Tree of Life: God-His community,
principality and character of love. When we are connected to the true vine Jesus
Christ as branches, we will be able to bear or produce the fruit of The Holy
Spirit. We can do that through the baptism, infilling or
anointing of The Holy Spirit-connecting... When we have the Holy Spirit within us, we have
Jesus Christ within us because of our Trinity God (God The Father, God The Son,
and God The Holy Spirit-united in love: God’s character and principality). All
we have to do is “ASK…” The only way to connect to the True Vine in John 15 (Jesus Christ) in heaven right now is to be infilled with The Holy Spirit! Ask Jesus Christ for the baptism, infilling or
anointing of The Holy Spirit within us through “PRAYER”. Remember, “JESUS
CHRIST IS COMING AGAIN, TIME IS SOMETHING WE ALL DON’T HAVE, AND THE POWER OF
CHOICE IS YOURS…”
