Only when the order of unity and clarity is achieved in our innermost being can our life—the unity and freedom of the City on the Hill—attain the warming and radiating power of the light on the lamp stand, making it alight for the whole world.

- Eberhard Arnold When the Time Was FulfilledWe work until we are weary to the bone and yet see so little fruit. Does everything remain as it was? Haven’t we made any progress? Have we actually helped at all, or have we merely scratched the surface of things? Is there any trace or glimpse of the goal we long for? What do all our efforts amount to in the face of all the forces of misery and evil in the world? Left before such agonizing questions, it is good to remember the light that shines from the stable of Bethlehem, for it is here we are able to sense what it means that the kingdom of God came as a little child.

There is only one sense in which a man can be a Christian. This is the inner sense, which for this very reason works at the same time upon all that is external. One can be a Christian only when he has experienced within his own heart the decisive word about Christ’s nearness.

Nothing but a last, deepest inward revival, a great, full awakening to God and to His all-determining rule, will be instrumental in carrying into the whole world the Gospel, the glad message of Christ and His unique importance.
