Signs of the Spirit: Gentleness (by Caleb Churchill)
Nothing about the Spirit of Christ lines up with the values of the world. This is arguably most obvious when it comes to the meekness and lowliness of Christ.

Those that believe in the glory of God\’s faithfulness must themselves become faithful to him and like him.
If you want grace from God, you have to learn to humble yourself under God.
What is \”good\”?
Kindness is unassuming, yet it is core to the life of the person living by the Spirit of God.
The commands that God issues and the experiences he leads his children through are not an act of un-love. His discipline is his love.
It isn\’t the mighty and most noble that do the great things of God. It is those that quietly serve sometimes without being noticed or known by anyone but God himself.
Every group of people requires leadership. The trick for God\’s people is to lead and be led in the way he prescribes rather than the way the world would suggest.
God wants his saints to operate together as local bodies, not as independent actors in the world. It is essential that God\’s people learn how he wants his churches to work together.
God\’s election of his people is a key theme in Romans. The truth of this doctrine is a source of real beauty and motivation when properly understood.
