Virtue, knowledge, self-control, steadfastness, godliness, brotherly affection and love are popularly known as the Christian graces. (2 Peter 1:5-7) But that makes it sound like they come free with our faith.
Looking closer, Peter said to be diligent to supplement our faith with these things! (v. 5)
That means in order to bear the fruit of the Spirit, we have to keep training ourselves to practice these qualities (v. 8)
Maybe we should be calling them the Christian objectives!
