Virtue is the character of Christ internalized through obedience to Him. It grows through a relationship with Christ and leads to humility and dependence rather than pride. True discipleship focuses on gaining virtue through submitting to Christ's direction daily. It involves focusing on one's desire, dependents, and development. God delights in unfailing love, justice, and righteousness. Laying this foundation involves focusing prayer, faith, and salvation on developing steadfast love for one's heart; intercession, the sword, and injustice on justice for one's house and dependents; and paths of God, armor, and warfare on righteousness for one's hope and development.
