Galatians 5:22 Faithfulness is not the same as faith. As a result of faith, we begin in the Spirit (Galatians 3:2-3).

But Gal 5:22 says Faith is a fruit of the Spirit. Do you deny that ?

Fruit of the Spirit
The word “fruit” is singular, indicating that these qualities constitute a unity, all of which should be found in a believer who lives under the control of the Spirit.
Test your faith by your works. The fruit/works believers should have in their lives is listed in Gal_5:22-23. These are contrasted with the works of the flesh Gal_5:19-21
Mat_3:8 Joh_15:2; *Joh_15:5 Rom_8:5; Heb_12:11 Jas_3:17-18

So are you telling me that Faith is not a fruit of the Spirit as per Gal 5:22 ? So is it from the flesh ?

Faithfulness is a fruit of the Spirit for those that already believe just as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness and self-control are.
It really is to bad that you fight so hard against the word of God. Your continued denial of His word does make me question just how serious you are about finding the truth.
