The fruit of the Spirit

I just love using Noah Webster's 1828 Dictionary. When you look up a word, it provides not only the definition of the word, but also a Scripture reference. Most of the Scripture references for the fruit of the Spirit were found in the dictionary. I only changed one or two references because I had a preferred Scripture verse for a particular definition (for example, I like Hebrews 11:1 for "faith" because it seemed to define faith better than what was in the dictionary).

The site administrator for the dictionary has updated the site with a comparison of the 1828 with the 1913 edition.
