Here’s a question. Are we missing something crucial regarding what Jesus has made available for the growth, development and effectiveness of His Church? I want to consider three elements of the work of Christ in our own lives and those of our people.
We need the fruit of the Spirit to develop the character of Jesus in His people. We also need the Gifts of the Spirit to manifest the power of Jesus to the world around us; to bring the Kingdom of Heaven effectively to earth.
But we also deeply need the five graces of Christ at work in the whole of His Church to equip it to impact a world that is lost and estranged from him.
Hope this helps you. Blessings Philip
