Christian Living A Beautiful Mess When we respond to evil in our world by acting with kindness and goodness, we are not only bearing the supernatural Fruit of the Spirit of God, we are also living in the power of the cross and the resurrection, and we are anticipating the final victory of God’s goodness over all evil in the universe. In doing good we demonstrate the saving and transforming power of the Gospel.

Christian Living A Beautiful Mess The cross and resurrection are not just the proof of God’s goodness, they are also the source and pattern of any and all goodness we can do as Christians. Do what is good, do what is right, and let God take responsibility for the consequences.
