acts of intentionality
Many Liberals confess that they do random acts of kindness and encourage others to do the same. That is a preposterous series of things to do because there is no intentionality to it. It is a vapid attempt to replicate religious principles passed down for thousands of years. The fruit of the Spirit of God include: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness, and self-control. Acts of kindness done arbitrarily or randomly might affect someone's life and be the operative term in a senseless act. The more deliberate acts and qualities of the Spirit bring about many more positive, helpful outcomes.
Consider too the things that have brought us to the point of randomly acting ethically for fear that we might insult someone's scruples. The things to avoid in this life that will help bring about the fruit of the Spirit are sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, and orgies. Clear life of these intentionally, and the Spirit of God will light on you with the fruit of God's love in you.
