Description
The second week of the "Foreshadowing: From Symbols to Savior" series looks at the difference between the forbidden fruit in the Garden of Eden and the Fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5. The fruit that God forbid in the garden brought about destruction and brokenness. But God's plan of redemption, healing, and growth would come through the gift of the Fruit of the Spirit, empowering the people of God to live in relationship with Him and others. Starting from the key idea that we often grab what looks good, scripture reminds us that "sin always overpromises and underdeliver", while God "grows what is truly good".
