Visual Theology – The Fruit of the Spirit

Visual Theology
I hope you are enjoying this Visual Theology series of infographics as much as I am. It has now visited the ordo salutis, the attributes of God, the books of the Bible, Philippians 4:8, the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the Trinity, Philippians 2:5-11 and the Old Testament tabernacle. Today the series moves back to a particular Scripture passage–Galatians 5:22-23 where we learn about the fruit of the Spirit. [Update: There is now a Visual Theology website.]

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.” Here we tried to capture the tree and fruit motif, but without making it too obvious. I think it worked.
