Title: The fruit of the Spirit
Never mind if they possessed them or not, but people have the idea what to look for and expect from a Christian. It could be some sort of an irony that an unbeliever, who is aware of what comes naturally from man: the works of the flesh, knows that a child of God must be loving, joyful, a peacemaker, longsuffering, generally good-mannered, faithful, gentle, and self-controlled. What links us to God is His Spirit in us. What defines us to the world is its fruit in our lives.
