PEACE Galatians 5:22-23 Part 2 of 2

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.  

of the Spirit is love 
Colossians 3:12-15  Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

peace 
Malachi 2:6  "True instruction was in his mouth and nothing false was found on his lips. He walked with me in peace and uprightness, and turned many from sin." (God speaking of Phinehas, Aaron's grandson)

self-control 
1 Peter 4:7  The end of all things is near. Therefore be alert and of sober mind so that you may pray.
1 Peter 5:8  Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

Against such things there is no law 
Galatians 5:18  But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.
