Many people find both inspiration and solace when reading Christian classics. And while most readers today have at least some familiarity with the New Testament, few have any experience with other Christian literature from that period or beyond. This second edition of FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT is a fascinating compilation of the writings of various Christian authors of the first and second centuries. Editor George Zgourides has chosen as his organizing theme Saint Paul's texts on the "fruit" of the Holy Spirit, and he presents instructive and inspirational sayings from this very early group of Christian authors on such attributes as love, peace, patience, gentleness, and righteousness. These sayings provide a glimpse into some of the deepest thoughts of these early followers of Christ and stand as a testimony to their dedication to the growing Christian faith of their day.
