Walking With God: Still More Fruit ... Revisited

I have been thinking through what seems to me to be the next step from my last post, and I find myself rethinking the last post.

If we define fruit as what results when the Spirit connects and channels through me then what I said was accurate. But if we define fruit as what results when the Spirit connects and channels, then maybe not.

In the first case, the focus is on the effects of my life. In the second, the focus moves to the effects of the Spirit. And that may have been Jesus' focus. Though each branch is important, when considered in light of a harvest, what is important is the entire vine.
