Still uncertain whether to post this or not, as it may seems to be a harsh scolding to some. But nevertheless, I'm leaving it in His hands... (The English verses are from New International Version: NIV): 

Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. (但是圣灵的果子是仁爱、喜乐、平安 (和平:和合本)、忍耐、恩慈、良善、信实、 温柔、节制 (新译本))。

 And that

 Ephesians 1:13 And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, Ephesians 1:12-14 (in Context)

Therefore, it is possible to attain the fruit of the Spirit, but that on the condition that one has to be willing to change one's previously held values,

as the opposite of the fruits of the Holy Spirit is :

 Galatians 5:19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. (19 情欲的事都是显而易见的,就如奸淫、污秽、邪荡、 20 拜偶像、邪术、仇恨、争竞、忌恨、恼怒、结党、纷争、异端、 21 嫉妒、[a]醉酒、荒宴等类。--和合本 加拉太书5:19 (added the Chinese version of the verses on 12th oct)

 How can one e.g. bring peacefulness if one spreads discord? How can one able to love (cross-reference to also Matthew 22:39 : And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’)when one is jealous or hating another? This is also why Jesus said "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other... " (Matthew 6:24; in context Matthew 6:19-24)

 And to change one's values, besides believing in Him and one's faith in Him, is to "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." (Matthew 22:37). And thus following His teachings and commandments will come easily, though at times there will be some struggles. Look upon the cross. The reason why He had to undertake the path which was full of sufferings and ultimately cruxification. For our Redemption...

 And these are in accordance with the Ten commandments that were engraved into the tablets brought down by Moses from Mount Sinai (Exodus 20:1-17).

 *Apologies for the haphazard formatting/paragraphing and punctuation...

 Oh yeah and that being said, the difference between witchcraft and miracles lies in the motives behind it i.e. whether it is out of selfishness or greed or whether it is out of love and concern for involved party or involved parties. And miracles are actually in accordance to His attributes such as merciful etc.

To those who are still trying to imitate me, and claiming that they are me, and after I tried to clear that up, the bad things that they had done within that period of time, are also pushed upon me, please know what you are playing with. It is better to stop that then to get exposed for all the lies that are being used to cover that one lie that 冰月is you, especially when the lies are causing hurt and harm. And don't think that no lie can go unexposed, at best, it's just that those who know didn't reveal that they know about it.

And apologies for the paragraphing, didn't intend it to be one big paragraph...was typing under the HMTL box without realizing...

Feel so pressed to add this..definition of love:

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
