Translation note (Vision §4.6 review item): Greek pistis in this fruit list is best rendered "faithfulness" (reliability, trustworthiness) rather than "saving faith." The KJV "faith" reading is defensible but obscures the fruit-of-the-Spirit context — the facet is the believer's reliability under pressure, not initial trust in Christ. Hab 2:4 — "the just shall live by his faith" — the same Hebrew word emunah carries both the faith-and-faithfulness range. Lam 3:23 — "great is thy faithfulness."
