The Importance of Fruit (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Bearing fruit is so utterly important in the Kingdom of God that the believer who does not bear fruit is cut from the Vine, removed from Christ. The reason bearing fruit is so critical has to do with God’s purpose in calling out the members of the Church from the ranks of mankind.The purpose in calling the Israelites of the old covenant from among the other nations of the earth was that they might be the guardians of the moral law, the Ten Commandments. The purpose in calling Israel (the members of the Church) under the new covenant from among the ranks of mankind is that they may portray in themselves the eternal moral law of God. The fruit God is looking for is Christ in the saints. Christ is the eternal moral law of God made flesh.
