Are you known by your fruits?

Everyone is known by their fruits. You might be thinking, "Duh, of course. How else do you know someone?"

But I'm asking if you're known by your fruits: or by another person's fruits. If you're father is the President of the U.S., chances are that you are known by your father because of his role in the country. The President's entire family is in large judged by his fruit.

Matthew 7:20 says-Wherefore by their fruits you shall know them.

I know this verse is literally talking about false prophets, but I am going to apply this verse to you personally.

Looking up Romans 8:9 you would find-But you are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

Finally, Galatians 5:22-But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

My question again: Are you known by your fruits?
