Where the life-giving Spirit of the peace of God fills and unites men, it expresses its infinite power in an activity of love which is as many-sided as it is unified, as moved and stirred as it is firm and steadfast, as manifold and varied as it is whole and undivided.

- Eberhard Arnold Meeting transcript, October 1934The love of God is poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit. This is what really becoming human means. Besides, out of this love that which God wants must be created: our truly becoming human; the embodiment of the eternal Christ in complete love, in complete community, in complete peace, in complete unity! I am always so thankful when we are together with guests and friends and they, by their contrasting points of view, remind us that we may return anew to that which alone is decisive, to the way of Jesus Christ, who was humiliated.

God himself is the giver. The Spirit gave God’s fiery brand into the Son’s hand. The torch of wrath became the giver of life. The glowing heat of judgment has gushed forth into the fire of life. It lives in the light of love which liberates and gathers us.

The reality of repentance and of our smallness is effective only if one takes the smallness for granted. As long as that which moves us is not God and His kingdom but instead “my” heart, “my” inadequacy, “my” remorse and “my” repentance, the whole thing is and remains a completely heathen idolatry.
