Thanks @steemchurch for sharing this great post.
Honestly, It's one thing for someone to say I'm a Christian, while is another thing for him or her to act and live as one. Christianity is not a religion, but a lifestyle, projecting relationship with Christ.
As a matter of fact, Christianity was founded on love and sacrificial living consistent with the will of God-- perfectly exemplified by the life of Christ. And genuinely being a christian, one's life is expected to portray or emit LOVE-- which is a major component of the fruit of the spirit, as stated in Galatians 5.
No doubt, certain attributes need to take practical expression to show that a regeneration has taken place in man's spirit.
