Through out the Old Testament we see the finding or awaiting the fruit of Jesus Christ (Matthew. 26:56; Luke 24:44; Acts 13:27). Jesus is God that shows us what it means to be full with good fruit. We should see that Jesus was the prime example of what good fruit should that we produce. We often refer to bad fruit is the sin of many things and we see good fruit is obeying God. We also see that if good fruit is around then it will produce good fruit and if bad fruit is around it will produce bad fruit. What are we to do to produce good fruit?
If we look at Jesus and his example then we should not have any trouble finding ways to be full of good fruit. Paul tells us that love will produce good fruit (Gal. 5:14; cf. Rom. 13:8). He also speaks of fulfilling the preaching of Christ in the Roman Empire (Rom. 15:19). We should also be willing to continue the work the Jesus did. We should want to continue to work Paul left for us. It should be similar to the call that John had for Jesus (Jn. 15:11; 16:16).
