Bible Verses About Fruitfulness

The Bible has a lot to say about fruitfulness! In Genesis 1:28, God blessed mankind and told them to be fruitful and multiply. The fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) is a key part of the Christian life, and Jesus Himself spoke often about fruitfulness (John 15:1-8). As Christians, we are called to bear fruit in our lives (Matthew 7:16-20), and this fruitfulness should be evident to others (John 13:34-35).
