Like the water of the mountains, the Spirit of the heights seeks the lowest place. He strives downwards. His Church bears the lowly and childlike spirit which alone is of God. She is with Mary in the stable. The Church comes into being with Christ on the gallows. She goes the way of apostolic poverty. With her one mind and one heart, she honors no one but God in Christ Jesus.

- 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.”

With the hands of our souls we must hold firmly His burning light, because it wants to penetrate the graves. Nothing else can we have in our hands but His radiant life, because it conquers all worlds of death.
