JOY

feeding . . . gathering . . . carrying . . . leading . (Isaiah 40:11)

Dear family,

I covered a lot of ground on Sunday so I suggest you get the tape or download the MP3 for follow-up! Remember the main point, that we have an opportunity, to use Paul’s term to the Corinthians (2 Cor. 1:24) to be a “helper” of another’s joy. The fruit of the Spirit that is joy should equally be a mark of corporate identity, and I spoke about ways that we could increase the joy of a community, not just our own personal lives.

I thought you might be interested in the compact summary I put together of Jonathan Edwards’ argumentation for taking joy seriously (to use a C.S. Lewis term!) Edwards argues that at the end of the day, there are two primary distinguishing marks of a transforming work of the Spirit of God: love to Christ and joy in Christ. Regardless of any other manifestations or miracles, that’s it. Assess your life and your ministry, assess transformation and revival by these he argues, and he had seen it all. Is there an increase in your love for Jesus and is there an increase in your joy in Jesus. Is there? To quote him: “Joy in Christ is one of the most basic exercises of true faith and its nature is supernatural and glorified. True faith must consist in holy affections.” Edwards bolstered his argument with other pertinent observations.

• The fact is that scripture teaches that the activities of the heart and will are strong and vigorous. “Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord…be joyful in hope.” (Rom. 12:11)

• We cannot live without affections: they were given by the Creator and are the well-spring of our actions.

• Things only take hold of us in so far as they affect us.

• He argues that all of this is equally inferred by biblical descriptions of a heart that is estranged from God, that is described as hard and unaffected and joyless.

• The most eminent saints, he points out, were people of strong affections. Strong apostolic ministry, global mission, is born in strong apostolic affection. Why are we surprised then that Paul mentions joy more than any other apostle. Over 21 major mentions and treatments. Next comes John with 9!

Jonathan Edward’s observations about this vigorous affection of JOY are direct and simple so let me use them as a convenient summary to at least agree we are dealing with something of great import and magnitude. I am reducing a mass of biblical material to a sound byte so don’t judge God or Edwards by my presentation here! It will at least serve to throw you in to the biblical argumentation and truth about joy.

1. It is the strong affection of God: “He will exult over you with loud singing…” (Zeph. 3:17)

2. It is the strong affection of heaven: “Let us rejoice and give him glory” (Rev. 19:7)

3. It is the strong affection of Jesus: “Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit said I praise you father…” (Lk. 10:21) 4

4. It was the strong affection released through the incarnation: “I bring you good news of great joy” (Lk. 2:10)

5. It is a strong affection and fruit of the Holy Spirit: “The fruit of the Spirit is joy” (Gal. 5:22) “The kingdom of God is (a matter of) joy in the Holy Spirit” (Rom. 14:17)

6. It is the strong affection that is the accompanying and sustained gift and manifestation of salvation and knowing God through the finished work of Jesus Christ: “In his joy he went and sold all he had” (Mt. 13:44) “There is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents.” (Mt. 15:7-10) “The ransomed of the Lord…. ever-lasting joy will crown their heads…joy will overtake them” (Isa. 35:10)

7. It is the strong affection that characterizes those who love God and are revived: “Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love so that we may sing for joy all our days” (Ps. 90:14) Lack of joy is a sign of unrevivedness or back-sliddenness. “Make me hear joy and gladness that the bones you have broken may rejoice…Restore to me the joy of your salvation.” (Ps. 51:8, 12)

8. 8. It is the strong affection that inspires, accompanies and results from spiritual duties:
   a) Prayer: “I always pray with joy” (Phil. 1:4); “I will give them joy in my house of prayer” (Isa. 56:7); “ask…and your joy will be complete” (Jn. 16:24)
   b) Word: “The precepts of the Lord give joy to the heart” (Ps. 19:8); “When your words came…they were my joy and my heart’s delight” (Jer. 15:16); “You welcomed the message with the joy given by the Holy Spirit” (1 Thess. 1:6)
   c) Gatherings: “At his tabernacle I will sacrifice with shouts of joy” (Ps. 27:6); “They offered great sacrifices because God had given them great joy!” (Neh. 12:43)

9. It is the strong affection that is the source of spiritual strength and release: “The joy of the Lord is our strength” (Neh. 8:10)

10. It is the strong affection that will always be the fruit, the outcome, the product of truly spiritual ministry: “We work with you for your joy” (2 Cor. 1:24)

11. It is a strong affection that is independent of circumstance: “Blessed are you when you are rejected…rejoice and leap for joy!” (Lk. 6:33)

12. It is a strong affection that is commanded: ”Be joyful always” (1 Thess. 5:16) Lewis understood this: “In commanding us to glorify Him, God is inviting us to enjoy Him.”

13. It is a strong affection that God withdraws as a judgment or punishment: “The joy of the harp ceases…all joy is darkened” (Isa. 24: 5-8)

Any questions about the necessity for joy as a fruit of our lives?

Joyfully yours and wishing to be a helper of your joy,
Stuart

INTRODUCTION

feeding . . . gathering . . . carrying . . . leading . (Isaiah 40:11)

Dearest family,

On Sunday I did an Introduction to our new Summer Series, “Living on the Vine”, which will be a week by week study of each of the nine manifestations of the fruit of the Spirit that Paul lists in Galatians 5:22. It will be relevant and refreshing, as nine different speakers present a fruit from a scriptural but also personal perspective, in a blend of teaching and testimony. Don’t forget that “fruit” is in the singular here. It is not “fruits” as if we can pick and choose between them, or comfort ourselves that we are stronger in some than others, or think that as long as we cover them all between us then we are alright. Deficiency in any area affects the overall presentation and health of the fruit in our lives. My concern in my introduction had less to do with giving you an overview of the fruits themselves (our speakers will do a good job on that) than with setting and explaining the context for this list of divine characteristics. I addressed two things:

1. I did a summary of the concerns that Paul had that determined the content of Galatians in which our teaching is placed;

2. I commented on the immediate context of 5:22 and what leads up to the specific description of this fruit.

The book of Galatians was provoked by the news that false teachers, “Judaizing legalists”, were infiltrating the young churches, and intentionally undermining Paul’s labors, first by questioning his ministry credentials and then by questioning and undermining his message, the gospel, by insisting that observance of the Jewish law was an essential ground of their acceptance by God and their assurance of salvation. This explains the order of the letter’s argumentation. Chapters 1-2 contain Paul’s defense of his call and his apostolic authority and gives us some personal details of his testimony. (The word “gospel” is constantly repeated.) The remaining four chapters are the defense of the gospel against those who were “perverting” it (1:8) by adding to it. Chapters 3-4 deal with justification by faith in Christ alone, and the word “faith” is the most prominent term. Chapters 5-6 deal with sanctification by faith through the Spirit of Christ alone, and not surprisingly, constant references are made to the “Spirit.” Now you can understand why it was written under duress, and it stands out from other epistles for its tone which is combative and confrontational, urgent and solemn, severe and stern. It gets in your heart and your head by getting in your face! Its seriousness is reinforced by the fact that Paul points out in 6:11 that he has written it in large letters “with my own hand.” In every way, this is a large letter and a heavy one as a result. So why did I pay attention to this context and not get straight into that sweet spiritual fruit-salad of 5:22?

The reason is because the context alerts you to the fact that whatever Paul is saying about the fruit of the Holy Spirit here, it is not some mellow, cute, cozy devotional chat about some nice things that will make you a nicer person. This fruit is not something you should give some thought to if you have a meditative moment, or if you feel strangely exercised to improve yourself to be a better Christian than normal. The fighting tone of the letter, and the massive issues of truth that are being argued for, tell us that whatever we think about this fruit, we should understand it is a crucial matter of life and death. Nothing less than the truth and power of the gospel of Jesus Christ is at stake. There is a critical choice being presented to us about two warring and contrary ways of living: the works of the flesh (5:19) or the fruit of the Spirit (5:22) This is so critical that Paul says there are two possible outcomes depending on your choice (6:8). If you choose to sow to please your sinful nature, the works of the flesh, then you will reap destruction. If you sow to please the Spirit, then you will reap eternal life. Are you tracking? This fruit is not about becoming more moral, more ethical, but more righteous, more holy, more of a gospel agent, but most importantly and necessarily, more like Christ. Our life and the lives of others depend upon it in this battle. The fruit is not growing in some pastorally sheltered, protected, high-walled, south-facing garden. It is better you understand it growing in what is a hostile environment that naturally does not support or co-operate with the growth process. In fact, it actively opposes it, so there is going to be great need for the spiritual equivalents of fertilizer and pest control. Given the nature of the human terrain that Paul has described in the letter, the realties of the heart without a relationship with Jesus Christ, this fruit is totally counter-nature – that is why it is counter-culture. This precisely explains why it is the fruit OF THE SPIRIT! These are not characteristics that we can cultivate by ourselves, for ourselves! It takes nothing less than a spiritual power to grow this fruit in us and through us. It is not self-derived, it is not dependent on our personhood or temperament. Hell will be full of nice godless people. We all start in the same place – unfruitful unless we are related to Christ and the Spirit of Christ.

Do you see the critical nature of the choice here? The whole letter up to 5:22 has been about choices between contrary realities. Paul uses the word “conflict ” to describe it. (5:17) It is about Christ or Moses; Spirit or flesh; promise or law; blessing or curse; sinful nature or divine nature; conviction or condemnation; faith or works; freedom or fear; love or license; liberty or bondage; law of sin or law of righteousness; son or slave; new creation or old circumcision; Christian church or Jewish nation; grace of God or rules and restrictions of men; fruit of Spirit or works of flesh; eternal life or destruction. This is serious stuff with serious consequences. In other words, this fruit of the Spirit is not an optional extra. It is not spiritual “accessorizing.” It is the non-negotiable, maturing evidence of a transformed life, that has been justified by faith in Christ alone and that is being sanctified by the Spirit of Christ alone. (Get the message for the extended explanations of these two vital truths about our salvation.)

You see, before Paul describes the FRUIT, he establishes what FAITH is all about, so any introduction to the fruit should draw attention to the faith too. He refers to it no less than 22 times which fairly presents the issue he is taking with any view of salvation that has any additive that is rooted in works or the observance of human traditions or obedience to legalisms – that is not of “faith through Jesus Christ.” (3:26) In 5:6 he says, “The only thing that counts is faith.” If we don’t get this sequence then we will be tempted to think that the fruit is something that we can manufacture, that we can manage, that is merely the product of our will. We will mistake good behavior for righteousness; civil politeness for godliness; good manners for Christ-like character; happiness for joy. Paul establishes that everything that has to do with our salvation is by faith. The assurance of faith is opposed by what he describes in chapter 6 as its counterfeit, namely “confidence in the flesh.” I have already mentioned the two aspects of our experience of salvation that Paul argues in chapters 3-6. If you want a refresher course on the gospel you could do no better than reread this letter. Luther described its affirmations of the gospel as “thunder claps from heaven.” When it comes to justification, it is all about the work of Christ. When it comes to the second aspect, our sanctification, it is all about the work of the Spirit. So it is clearly true to say that Paul is concerned about the means of our acceptance by God and Christ’s supreme role in that acceptance and he opposes anyone who dares to say that our salvation and acceptance is based on anything other than Christ’s redeeming work. If this is minimized or marginalized, reduced or revised in any way, then other works will replace it or be added to it, as was the case here, when observance of Jewish customs, particularly circumcision, were being insisted upon as a ground of qualification and acceptance. If this happens then the result is tragic. “Christ is of no value to you at all.” (5:2) It is in this acceptance issue that most commentators see the emphasis of this letter. However, it must also be stated strongly, that it is equally true that the main motif of Paul’s message has to do with how, once we are converted, we live, and his emphasis is heavy on our dependency on the work of the Holy Spirit. So there are the two main things that Paul wants them and you and me to know: the centrality of Christ’s work once and for all, and the cruciality of the Spirit’s work in our lives for now and always. Once saved, there is nothing that we can do by our own efforts, or rules or strategies, nothing that the law can do, to maintain or sustain our lives. If we try, it is foolish! It is saying that flesh or law can supply Spirit. What does Paul say? “If a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law.” (3:21) “Are you so foolish? After beginning with the Spirit, are you now trying to attain your goal by human effort…Does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you because you observe the law or because you believe what you heard?” (3:3-5)

So as we examine this fruit, remember this. It is not about behavioral rules, as required by the law or by traditions and customs. It is about the cross and the sufficiency of Christ’s saving work in our place and on our behalf. The fruit of the Spirit is not just a set of good behaviors. It has to be first the fruit of a crucified life – if it is not the fruit of a cross it will not be the fruit of our character. If you are not committed to living a crucified life, putting to death the works of the flesh, then you can forget the teaching on the fruit of the Spirit. What is the very next statement after the list of the Spirit’s fruit? “Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the sinful nature.” In other words they daily identify with the cross where their sin was borne, they daily deny their flesh and take up their cross.

We do not know what the result was of this communication by Paul to the Galatians. Was it received or rejected? As someone has observed, there is no Second Galatians to tell us what happened. Yet despite the silence of a response from the first recipients, the sheer intensity and integrity of this letter has resounded and resonated through the centuries, and as you know, it was this text that provoked the mind and spirit of a man called Martin Luther, that therefore served to launch the Protestant Reformation. We could say that this is one of our charter documents as an evangelical church, one of our foundational and constitutional declarations of faith. It has attracted many superlative titles like “The Magna Carta of Christian liberty,” or “The Christian Declaration of Independence.” Arguably, spiritual freedom is the central theological concept – being free to do what God desires. It is about the reality of our freedom that is emphasized in this letter: freedom from guilt and condemnation; from the fear of death; from the penalty, presence and power of sin; “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free!” (5:1) “You, my brothers, were called to be free…” (5:13) It is as an evidence and expression of this freedom and deliverance that we must understand the fruit of the Spirit. Before these virtues of Christ’s character are manifested through us, we first have to be delivered from the prison-house of our flesh. In 3:22 Paul wrote “The scripture declares that the whole world is a prisoner of sin.” We need to be freed from those sinful dispositions that dominate our soulish and selfcentered lives. We need to be delivered from lovelessness and hatred, from misery and despair, from dispeace and divisiveness, from self-serving impatience and ungenerous unkindness, from intentional evil and spite, from unfaithfulness and betrayal and offence, from abrasive and prideful aggression, from uncontrolled indulgence and anger. Are you getting the picture here that Paul is presenting? By ourselves we can neither produce this fruit nor procure it. It doesn’t happen simply because we promote it by a teaching series like this one. It is Christ in us, the work of the Spirit in us. If this is all about being like Jesus, because we are so intimately related to him, then maybe we should close with his words on the subject, his way of putting what Paul went on to teach about. He is still the best teacher, as good as Paul is. "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.”

So if you’re serious about this fruit in your life, get ready for the pruning shears, the pest controls and especially the fertilizer! Watch out for them this week because that difficult person is fertilizing love; that disappointing outcome is fertilizing joy; that storm that blows in to your life is fertilizing peace; that trial is fertilizing patience; that person’s inconvenient need is fertilizing kindness; that malice is fertilizing goodness; that betrayal is fertilizing faithfulness; that abrasiveness is fertilizing gentleness; that outburst is fertilizing self-control. “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22)

Living on the Vine,
