the fruits of Salvation :


holiness, righteousness, and truth


 


I speak after the manner of men because of the infirmity of your flesh : for as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.  ROMANS 6:19


 


But we are bound to give thanks alway to God for you, brethren beloved of the Lord, because God hath from the beginning chosen you to salvation through sanctification of the Spirit and belief of the truth :  2 THESSALONIANS 2:13


 


The word of salvation through Christ Jesus goes first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.  There are particular fruits that manifest when an earthen vessel is carrying the word of salvation; 


Holiness manifests in an earthen vessel as setting him or her apart from the things of this world.  


Righteousness manifests in an earthen vessel as trust given to God to endure through things of this world.  The righteousness of God leads to prayer and devotion in the holy scriptures. 


Truth manifests in an earthen vessel as a faithful witness of a hope found in Christ and wisdom to live in this present world as disciples of Christ.


 


Holiness, righteousness, and truth fill and gird both men and women lovers of God as manifesting the fruits of salvation in this present world.
