What are the results of our actions called, as Bible believing Christians?

Jesus clearly told us what we must do to bear good FRUIT in John 15:4-5 when He said,

“Remain in me, and I will remain in you. For a branch cannot produce fruit if it is severed from the vine, and you cannot be fruitful unless you remain in me. Yes, I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who remain in me, and I in them, will produce much fruit. For apart from me you can do nothing.”

Follower’s of Christ can be both the best witnesses of what a dynamic saving faith in Him looks like, as well as being the worse witnesses by our actions and actual lifestyle … that unfortunately helps substantiate to anyone around us seeking to know the truth that we’re not any different than them.

The fruit that we bear (whether good or bad) is the true evidence of our faith!

The only way in which we can produce good fruit that lasts forever, is if we choose to abide in Christ, and submit our worldly desires unto the Holy Spirit who lives within us. He is eager and always ready to supernaturally guide us through the decisions we make … whenever we’re willing to surrender our will to His.

Each one of us has a personal testimony surrounding how the Lord led us to Him, and how He is continuously working daily in our lives. Don’t underestimate the power of sharing how your life in Christ has changed everything for you … for both time, as well as for eternity!
