Study Notes

The Power of God in Our Lives

  • Our characters, habits, and way of life change when we become children of God.
  • This change is like a birth and a growth process, similar to a good seed planted by a farmer.
  • Our sense of need drives us to the Saviour and to the Word of God.

The Fruits of the Spirit

  • The fruits of the Spirit in our lives are: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control (Galatians 5:22, 23).
  • These fruits are evident in our lives when we follow Christ and have His Spirit in us.

The Character of Christ

  • Christ's infinite purity and beauty are reflected in us when we turn to Him.
  • The more we see of His beautiful character, the more we shall become like Him.
  • We think often about Him, and our kindest thoughts are of Him.

The Growth Process

  • We will grow up to be men and women in Christ Jesus, like the good seed planted in a field.
  • God brings us many lessons from natural life to help us understand spiritual truths.
  • Only God can give spiritual life to people, and we must be "born again" (John 3:3).

The Role of Jesus

  • Jesus is at the right hand of God, asking His Father to forgive us.
  • He is our advocate, pleading with the Father on our behalf (1 John 2:1).
  • We must trust the power of our Redeemer and praise Him who is the light of our lives.
