God stands above every event. Faith can withstand the storm of all forces only if we are one with God. It is not men who stand firm. God alone is invincible. In Him alone is the freedom of soul that guards against bondage to even the strongest force.

- Eberhard ArnoldThe task of healing the sick and the purification of the body is the beginning. The raising of the dead and the driving out of demons is the peak of this authority. Here we must become silent because we have not received this authority in our age. We have not yet raised up bodies that were laid in the coffin or in the grave. But the apostleship of Jesus and his authority extend as far as this. If we look away from ourselves we must say, “The whole reality of the coming kingdom of God is given in apostleship.”

Jesus challenged us to work while it is still day. (John 9:4) He compared His Kingdom to labor in a vineyard, the investment of entrusted money, the good use of every talent. If God’s Kingdom is to transform this vale of tears into a place of joy, it has to be a realm of work. Work, and work alone, befits the destiny of the human spirit. By our nature as human beings we are called to a life of creativity. Healthy joy in life will be ours only through unclouded, loving fellowship in work.

Our all-inclusive task is to awaken the people of Israel to the impending catastrophe, to shake out of sleep the whole of mankind before their certain overthrow, that all may be prepared for the coming Kingdom.
