Chapter overview (whole chapter)
The chapter explains that the gospel brings true freedom, not the law, and that believers are free from the burden of the law. It then lists the fruit of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self‑control - and says that those who live in these qualities will not be bound by sin.
