When we think of temptation, we tend to almost immediately think of physical kinds of sins. But there are a lot of other temptations. There's temptation to pride, to despair, to dishonesty. Anything, whether it's good or not, can become addicting—it becomes your master. That's what temptation is about. Temptation is about something which may be good or may be bad, but it becomes your master, and therefore, it's bad. Let's look at 1) temptation and the devil, 2) the way of attack, and 3) the way of defense. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 22, 1990.

When Jesus Christ came into the life of the demon-possessed man in Mark 5, it says the man sat at Jesus' feet, clothed and in his right mind. That's the result of Jesus' resurrection power: self-control. All of us who look fairly polished on the outside realize, in many cases, our spirits are completely out of control. We look pretty well-manicured, but on the inside, we desperately need to have Christ's power come into our lives so we can sit as his feet, clothed, and in our right minds. Let's look at 1) the problem of self-control, 2) the counterfeit solution, and 3) the real self-control. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 15, 1990. Series: Fruit of the Spirit. Scripture: Ephesians 2:1–3; Luke 11:14–26; 1 Corinthians 9:23–27.

JOY.Bible reference: John 16:1-24.Series: Fruit of the Spirit.The third fruit of the Spirit is joy.
We all have a problem with self-control, right? You can probably think of some emotion or some habit you have trouble controlling. And if you can't think of anything that's out of control, your pride is out of control. The fruit of the Spirit is a singular word, which means it's like a diamond with many facets. That's very important. Because you can manufacture a kind of self-control that is nothing more than willpower, that has nothing to do with love or joy or peace. And that's not self-control. Let's look at 1) what self-control is, 2) what self-control is not, and 3) how to get self-control. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on April 8, 1990.

Goodness and faithfulness are greatly interrelated. They both have to do with integrity, with living honestly. The word integrity is related to integer—a whole number as opposed to a fraction. A person of integrity lives in a unified, not a fractured, way. But today we live in a fragmented world, in which one area of life has one set of values and another area has another set. What does it mean to have a truth-centered life? Let's look at 1) what the Bible teaches about truth, and then 2) what the Bible teaches about getting the truth into your life, about becoming a person of goodness and faithfulness.

The Bible says one of the marks of a real Christian is that your love finds expression in deeds of kindness—especially toward those with material, physical, and economic problems. Kindness is loving deeds, doing something for someone out of love. And in a number of places, the Bible says a real Christian will care for the poor. It's the Christian's social concern, social responsibility. Let's look at 1) the definition of kindness 2) the opposite of kindness 3) the counterfeit of kindness, and 4) how we cultivate kindness in our lives.

Love.Bible Reference: 1 Corinthians 13:1-8.Series: Fruit of the Spirit.The first fruit of the Spirit is love.
When the Bible says the fruit of the Spirit is patience, it's saying a Christian is somebody who at last knows how to deal with anger. You know, anger is a scary thing. Almost all murders and wars start with anger. It's a tremendously dangerous emotion. And this ability to deal with anger, to really release and remove it, to pray for enemies, to forgive people, to pray for oppressors, to repay evil with good is an essential sign of Christianity. Ephesians 4 shows us three things about anger: 1) anger in itself is not a sin, 2) anger usually is a sin, and 3) your motives are always impure. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 4, 1990. Series: Fruit of the Spirit. Scripture: 1 John 3:11-20, Ephesians 4:26-32.

When we talk about the fruit of the Spirit, love and joy seem like they're in a higher league than patience. We think, “everybody gets impatient!” But in James 5, it says impatience and grumbling is worthy of judgment. You may say, “Why?” But what do you think murder is? It's just grumbles that were planted and watered and fertilized. Impatience is at the root of things. Let's look at 1) the danger of impatience 2) what patience is, 3) what patience is not, 4) the counterfeit of patience, and 5) how you develop a patient heart.

A lot of Christians are cast down, losing their peace and joy because they don't expect attacks on their peace and joy. We're sad that we're sad. We're upset that we're upset. We say, “it's not supposed to be like this!” because we don't have the proper expectations. Before you became a Christian, your main enemy in life was God: someone who loved you, who was doing everything he could to wake you up. But the minute you make peace with God, instantly, all of God's enemies declare war on you—and they're not nice enemies. We're going to look at 1) what the Bible says about peace and joy, 2) our three enemies, and 3) the attacks on assurance. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on February 18, 1990. Series: Fruit of the Spirit. Scripture: Philippians 4:4-9.

When the Bible says joy comes in the morning, it doesn't mean you'll wake up every morning with a smile on your face. It means there's a joy of such intensity in the Christian life that nothing can put it out. A Christian will receive a joy of such intensity that no sorrow, in the end, can overwhelm it. Sorrow is always a temporary condition for a Christian, and joy is a permanent condition. To look at the fruit of joy, let's ask 1) what's the definition of joy? 2) what's the opposite of joy? 3) what's the counterfeit of joy? and 4) how do we cultivate joy in our lives?

They say if you've been married long enough you start to look like each other. Whether or not that's true in marriage, I know that's true about God and you. We're being transformed into the image of his Son. Every fruit of the Spirit, every aspect of holiness comes from looking at God himself. We look now at 1) what it means to study the fruit of the Spirit, 2) why love is more important than anything else, 3) what the opposite of love is, 4) what the counterfeit of love is, and 5) how you develop love in your life.

In a single acorn is not only the entire tree, but all the acorns on that tree and all the acorns on that tree and so on and so forth. It's all already in that one acorn. In the same way, a Christian already has the divine nature in them. When we talk about love, joy, peace, and patience, we're not talking about how to import these into our hearts. No. The Bible says we must grow up into our salvation. So instead of saying, “Oh, I'll never get there,” the question is: “When are you going to grow up?” We're looking at this passage on the fruit of the Spirit as a whole. Galatians 5 shows us 1) there are two natures in every Christian, 2) what it means to live in the Spirit, and 3) how we can walk in the Spirit.

Wrapping up the series on the Fruit of the Spirit self control is something everybody needs. For believers the supernatural power of God allows us to exercise self control at a level we normally wouldn't have the ability to do.
Meekness is a word that we really don't hear a lot and most do not desire to be known as "meek" because of its negative connotation but what the word really means becomes important to the child of God in our relationship with Jesus and others.
As believers we walk by faith and not by sight. Our faith is not a blind faith rather a faith in something we know is real because we can experience Jesus and the radical things He can do in our lives.
In the beginning God created everything good. We screwed it up. But God still remains the source of true goodness and by the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives, God's goodness is available for us to receive and to pour out.
Kindness is demonstrated by God throughout the Scriptures. When the Holy Spirit is calling the shots in our lives, the Kindness of God is present to use according to His will. It's not our own natural kindness, which falls short, rather the supernatural kindness of our God available to His children.
