The Fruits of Faith

What are the fruits of faith?  The Bible tells us.

Remission of sins - "To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission (forgiveness) of sins" (Acts 10:43).

Justification - "...and by Him everyone who believes is justified from all things from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses" (Acts 13:39).

Freedom from condemnation - "He who believes is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God" (John 3:18).

Salvation - "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned" (Mark 16:16).

Sanctification - "...and made no distinction between us and them, purifying their hearts by faith" (Acts 15:9).

Freedom from spiritual death - Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life.  He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.  And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die.  Do you believe this?" (John 11:25, 26).

Spiritual light - "While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light" (John 12:36).

"I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness" (verse 46).

Spiritual life - "...but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name (John 20:31).

Eternal life - "...that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life.  For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:15, 16).

Adoption - But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name (John 1:12).

Access to God - "...in Whom we have boldness and access with confidence through faith in Him" (Ephesians 3:12).

Edification - "...nor give heed to fables and endless genealogies which cause disputes rather than godly edification which is in faith" (1 Timothy 1:4).

Preservation - "But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you.  My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.  My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father's hand" (John 10:26-29).

Inheritance - "...to open their eyes and to turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified (set apart) by faith in Me" (Acts 26:18).

Peace and rest - "Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ" (Romans 5:1).
