The primary purpose of this book is to show you that the Fruit of the Holy Spirit that believers are expected to manifest as a lifestyle, but which most are unable to, constitutes God's nature that the perfect believer manifests naturally by doing only one thing - keeping his body crucified as a lifestyle; this will motivate you to become perfect. The book reveals that the perfect believer is perfect like God because his spirit is perfect after the image of God, and he is filled with His fullness through the fullness of the Holy Spirit. He achieves this state of perfection when all the idols behind filthiness of spirit occupying his heart which is the throne of God have been purged out for it to become pure. They are purged out by the circumcision of his heart achieved by denying the desires of his body to crucify it. Through his perfected spirit, he will begin to manifest the dimensions of the Holy Spirit that manifest God's nature, naturally. These include among others the holiness of God through the spirit of holiness, the faith of God through the spirit of faith; the power of God through the spirit of power; the wisdom of God through the spirit of wisdom; and the love of God through the spirit of love. It is through these dimensions of the Holy Spirit that all the various aspects of the Fruit of the Spirit are manifested. The major challenge of most believers is their inability to access abundance of grace to endure the suffering of denying the desires of the body as a lifestyle to keep it crucified. But the perfect believer, through the fullness of the Holy Spirit who supplies grace that is in him, has access to exceeding abundant grace as he walks after Him as a lifestyle. Without becoming perfect, a conscientious believer can manifest different aspects of the Fruit of the Spirit now and again; not as a lifestyle. It is only the perfect believer that manifests all of them as a lifestyle because they flow out of God's nature that he manifests naturally. They are his character traits.
