Paul prays that believers live the same way—overflowing with the visible results of a right standing with God. • John 15:4-5: “Remain in Me, and I will remain in you… the one who remains in Me and I in him will bear much fruit.” Our connection to Christ is what makes the branches fruitful. • Galatians 5:22-23 lists love, joy, peace, and the rest as “the fruit of the Spirit,” showing that righteousness expresses itself in practical attitudes and actions. • Ephesians 5:9 reminds us that “the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth,” confirming that righteous fruit is moral and ethical as well as spiritual. that comes through Jesus Christ Paul makes it clear that the source of this righteousness—and every piece of fruit that grows from it—is not human effort but the Savior Himself. • Philippians 3:9: Paul wants to “be found in Him, not having my own righteousness… but that which is through faith in Christ.” He rejects self-made righteousness in favor of Christ’s gift. • 2 Corinthians 5:21 declares, “God made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.” The tree’s life-sap is Christ’s own righteousness credited to and working through us. • John 15:5 repeats the unbreakable principle: “apart from Me you can do nothing.” Every righteous deed that counts for eternity is Christ’s life expressed through the believer. to the glory and praise of God The end goal is worship, not self-congratulation.

(11) The fruits of righteousness is an Old Testament phrase (see Proverbs 11:30; Amos 6:12), used also in James 3:18; Hebrews 12:11. It may mean (as in these last two passages) “righteousness as a result,” or (in the common sense of “fruit”) the “result of righteousness.” As the participle is properly “having been filled,” thus referring, not to the future day of Christ, but to the whole time which that day shall complete, the former sense seems preferable. The righteousness which is “through Jesus Christ,” “not” (as St. Paul says below, Philippians 3:9) “our own righteousness, which is of the Law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God,” is clearly the likeness of Christ, and therefore in itself an all-sufficient fruit.

Unto the glory and praise of God. The righteousness of God's saints, springing from the abiding presence of Christ, shows forth the glory of God. The glory of God is his majesty in itself; praise is the acknowledgment of this majesty by the voice and heart of man. The glory of God is the end of all Christian effort.Parallel Commentaries ...
