Day 2 – Faith (Faith and the Fig Tree)

Day 2 – Faith 

Faith and the Fig Tree

Question: "Why did Jesus curse the fig tree?"

“…The lesson of the fig tree is that we should bear spiritual fruit (Galatians 5:22-23), not just give an appearance of religiosity. God judges fruitlessness and expects that those who have a relationship with Him will “bear much fruit” (John 15:5-8). More Commentary @ http://www.gotquestions.org/curse-fig-tree.html and Life by the Spirit; notably the Fruit of the Spirit - But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,  gentleness, and self-control. Against such things, there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23 NIV @ http://biblehub.com/niv/galatians/5.htm  And The Vine and the Branches which references the spiritual fruit-bearing relationship between Jesus Christ and Believers - ⁵“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me, you can do nothing. ⁶If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire, and burned. ⁷If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.  ⁸This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. John 15:5-8 - More Commentary @ http://biblehub.com/niv/john/15.htm

Affirmation – I have faith in God! I am a branch of the body of Christ expected to bear the Fruit of the Spirit which is “love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.”
