<p>1:11 <i>Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God</i>- The preceding verses have alluded to the activity of the Spirit within us. The fruit of the Spirit is what we are filled with, as a gift, rather than what we bring forth in our own unaided strength. Such fruits of righteousness are not of ourselves, but on account of the Lord Jesus; which results in praise to God rather than glory to our own psychological strength. The idea of fullness of spiritual attributes is an allusion to the righteous characteristics of God of Ex. 34- which likewise were unto the <i>glory </i>of God. The R.V. of Ex. 34:5-7 says that God is <i>full</i> of these attributes- hence Phil. 1:11 talks of us being filled with these things too if we bear the Name, even in this life. The idea of fullness and being filled often occurs in the New Testament in the context of the glory. Eph. 1:23 describes the church as &quot;His body, the fullness of Him (God?) that fills all in all&quot;. Thus we are &quot;<i>the</i>&quot; fullness of God and Christ. &quot;We beheld His glory... full of grace and truth (alluding to Ex. 34)... and of His fullness have all we received&quot; (Jn. 1:14,16). See on Eph. 1:23.</p>
