    In Galatians 5:22–23, Paul shifts to happier thoughts, saying, “But the fruit of the Spirit is …” In what follows, he gives nine characteristics of the Holy Spirit’s work in the life of a born-again believer.

    This Bible passage, about the “Massacre of the Innocents,” can be applied to abortion. This message shares some insights into the driving force behind the killing of babies, and speaks of what can be done to stop it.
