Those truths of the spirit’s struggle are best experienced in life itself. In the steadfast constancy of faith, which is the fighting spirit itself, one then says “Yes” to this out of one’s heart. For this fight is indeed the highest love itself, as we know from Blumhardt and above all from the crucified One himself .

- Eberhard Arnold The Meaning and Power of Prayer LifeIt was Jesus who showed and brought and gave us God’s nature and power. Ever since He came, it is possible for us to pray to the Father in spirit and in truth. This spirit of truth makes us free from the impure mixing of religious practices with their human emphasis on what is outward and their idolatrous materialization. It brings us into the unified realm of the pure Church of God and of God’s unconditional rulership. This truth is the essence and reality of God’s genuine, clear word as it has gone forth from Him from the beginning.

Everything you do, and how you do it, must show the one clear image which reveals the full love of Christ. Without a daily coming together, there can be no life in marriage or in the Church.
