The document discusses cultivating an excellent spirit and manifesting the lifestyle of the Kingdom of God. It states that the Kingdom of God is righteousness, peace, and joy given by the Holy Spirit, and it is within a person rather than external. It describes how through exercising faith and developing virtues like knowledge, self-control, and godliness according to God's divine promises and power, a person can partake in the divine nature and be guaranteed entrance into God's eternal Kingdom. It likens this process to the relationship between a vine, its branches, and the production of fruit, requiring connection to Christ to bear good fruits of the Spirit.

(1Cor6:17)

15. THE VINE
THE BRANCH
&
THE FRUITS

18. FACTS ON VINE FRUITS:GRAPES
• IT TAKE UP TO THREE YEARS TO PRODUCE VIABLE GRAPES
• SOAK THE BARE ROOT VINES IN A BUCKET OF WATER FOR 3-4 HOUR
BEFORE PLANTING
• THE FIRST YEAR IS TO SUPPORT ITS ROOT GROWTH,AND TRAINING THE
VINE TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT(TIED SEVERAL TIMES TO MAKE IT STRAIGHT),
WITHOUT STRONG ROOT,THE VINE CANNOT DEVELOP PROPERLY….2ND
YEAR IS FOR PRUNNING ABOUT 70% OF THE PLANT TO LEAVE MAIN
TRUNK AND CANES(BRANCH).
• HEAVY PRUNNING PROVIDE BEST FRUITS,LIGHT PRUNNING GIVES LARGE
YIELD OF POOR QUALITY FRUITS,OVER PRUNNING PRODUCE LITTLE
FRUITS &VEGETABLES ONLY
• SUNLIGHT (UP TO 7 OR 8 HOURS A DAY) AND FULL SUN AND HEAT IS
NEEDED TO MATURE THE FRUIT

20. JOH 15:7,8(MSG):
•Joh 15:7 But if you make yourselves at home
with me and my words are at home in you, you
can be sure that whatever you ask will be listened
to and acted upon.
•Joh 15:8 This is how my Father shows who
he is….(DIVINE NATURE )When you produce
grapes, when you mature as my disciples.

22. •But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives,
he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love,
joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
(NLT) Gal 5:22-23
•But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,
longsuffering, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.(NKJV)

23. •These “qualities" in (1pet1:5) relate to
each other the way the branch relates
to the vine and the fruits to the
branch.(John15:1-8) Like the "fruit of
the Spirit" (Gal 5:22-23), these nature
grows out of our lives and out of a vital
relationship with Jesus Christ.

24. •It is not enough for the Christian to "let go and let
God," as though all these were God's work alone.
Literally, Peter wrote, (2pet1:5a)
•Employ every effort in exercising your faith.
• The Father and the child must work together.
•"Work out your own salvation. ... For it is God
which worketh in you" (Phil 2:12-13)… According
to the power at work in you (Eph3:20c)
• JESUS SAYS..MY FATHER WORK…I WORK JOHN 5:17
