I am come to set a man at variance against his father. This was not the Savior's object, but the effect. The conversion of individual members of the family would cause variance. In nearly all quarrels, except those about religion, the members of the same family stand together, but in religious feuds the family circle is often broken and its parts arrayed against each other.
Wesley's Notes for Mark 7:22
Wickedness - The word means ill natured, cruelty, inhumanity, and all malevolent affections. Foolishness - Directly contrary to sobriety of thought and discourse: all kind of wild imaginations and extravagant passions.
One sign that you have received the holy spirit is the presence of the fruit of the Spirit. "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. ... Growth takes time, and you can be patient with yourself as you grow in the fruit of the Spirit.
12 FRUITS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
The 12 fruits are charity (or love), joy, peace, patience, benignity (or kindness), goodness, longanimity (or long-suffering), mildness (or gentleness), faith, modesty, continency (or self-control), and chastity.
Gods Nature=
Omnipotence - God is all-powerful - everything consistent with God's nature is possible. Omniscience - God is all-knowing, of past, present and future. Omnibenevolence - God is all-good/all-loving. Omnipresence - God is present everywhere.
Most know God is good , and so is his Holy Spirit .
But are we Good trees or bad trees ?
If we have the Holy Spirit we have the power to be good trees .
A Good tree can not bare bad fruit , a bad tree can not bear good fruit . Said Jesus and Apostles .
A few examples , of good fruit ; love others Be kind , merciful to others , even enemies , give to those in need , time our money , etc . Share the truth with others . Live a spotless or holy life . Not exceptOmg evil as good or be indifferent to it , no compromises. The list is longer but this should be the character of our lives in general , can we make errors and mistakes? Yes but they do not characterize our life . Confession to the Lord of these is always excepted when sincere.
I'm not correcting you just adding to what fruit is in the believer .
