God wants healthy disciples to be fruitful. Spiritual fruit is simply the outward expression of our inner nature. When you see an apple hanging on a tree branch, you know it is an apple tree. Likewise, when others see you living out the personality characteristics of Christ-the fruit of the spirit listed in Galatians 5- they will see evidence of Jesus living in you. Galatians 5:19-25 lists 9 characteristics of a healthy disciple, which the Bible calls the fruit of the spirit:
But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law. Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature with its passions and desires. Since we live by the spirit, let us keep in step with the spirit. Galatians 5:19-25
