The fruit of the spirit
God in the form of Jesus, our great Savior, came to this Earth to show how much He cares for us, and He saved us to show His mercy towards us. We could not save ourselves, so He humbled Himself to take the form of a servant and endured a humiliating and unwarranted public execution. He loves you and cares for you – the cross proves it beyond debate.
Just as God gave the wandering Israelites the precise instructions to build the Tabernacle as a place to meet Him with sacrifices and worship acceptable to Him, Christ has given us His law in the Christian age. God wanted Israel to be holy because He was holy. That has not changed under the Christian age: Christians are to be holy.
