Title: Far-reaching Faithfulness ----------------------- Date: 07/11/1999

Welcome to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand strong in the face of sexual temptation.

eXXit advertises itself as a Web site designed to help you "stand strong in the face of sexual temptation." In Galatians 5:22-23, the apostle Paul lists nine "fruit of the Spirit," fruit that the Holy Spirit produces in the life of the believer. Each of these fruits — if produced — will greatly aid a believer who seeks to "stand strong."

At eXXit, we believe that:

The fruit of the Spirit is produced in the life of a healthy Christian, just as apples appear on a healthy apple tree.

If there is any love or joy or peace in a Christian, it is ultimately the work of God.

Christians can cooperate with the Spirit's desire to produce His fruit in their lives by yieldedness, faith, obedience and involvement in ministry.

We hope you enjoy and benefit from these meditations on Galatians 5! Send us any feedback. We'd love to know what you think.

Passage: Psalm 57:9-11*

9. I will praise you, O Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples.

10. For great is your love, reaching to the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

11. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.

Practical help

All Christians are given the fruit of faithfulness (God's faithfulness, not our ours). Even when we are not faithful to God, he is faithful to us. He will keep his word and will be there with us whenever we need him. He has promised to help us overcome sin, and he will do it! He is faithful all the way up to the skies.

Not only will God's faithfulness reach to far places, it will also reach to anyone who seeks him. How about letting God's faithfulness reach you?
