What does it mean to be filled with fruits of righteousness?

Answered in 1 source

Being filled with fruits of righteousness means producing good works in accordance with God's will through Christ's strength.

In Philippians 1:11, being filled with the fruits of righteousness refers to living a life characterized by good works that align with God's righteous law. Paul emphasizes that these good works are not the means of salvation but are the evidence of it—being the natural outcome of a justified life. This filling is enabled by Christ’s work within the believer and is aimed at glorifying God. Such fruits include acts of love, generosity, and service, which reflect the righteousness bestowed upon them through faith.
