In our seventh week of looking at the Sermon on the Mount, Pastor Wesley discusses the instruction of bearing fruit. Looking at scripture we learn that everyone bears fruit, and it is by your fruit that you are recognized. The Holy Spirit produces the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, and faithfulness in us as we live a surrendered life to Christ.
