It is rare for people to listen to God nowadays because our times are noisy and restless and because our hearts are too full of newspapers and noise. When the Holy Spirit is heard in hearts, however, he calls forth in us holy resolves, holy acts of will, a holy shaping of life. God’s kingdom is now. God’s dominion is here. God’s kingdom is here, in the Holy Spirit. He is present in the unity of the church. His reign is present in the shaping anew of life.

- Eberhard ArnoldWe experience that unity is at the same time agreement with the apostolic testimony of the New Testament, and agreement with the testimony of the future of the kingdom of God. Thus we experience unity not simply in the small circle of our community life, but as a unity that embraces all millennia; the spirit of inspired men and prophets; perfect unity with all original movements that were a spiritual uprising, with all movements, which sprang from the source, borne by the Holy Spirit and led by the inner light. We can testify that we have experienced that we become completely unanimous, when in the quiet hour the Spirit gives witness, and the light of Christ bursts into flame in our hearts, when in this silent concentrated attention the voice of Jesus speaks within us.

October 07,2025
In answer to our faith, and to the measure of our faith, everything will be done just as we ask. There is no wall, no mountain, no barrier too high for the prayer of faith. God is above everything. His Spirit is stronger than all other spirits. When a man’s faith, life, and deeds are in Jesus, who is the Word, all his prayers are answered. If everything we do has only one goal, that his kingdom comes, that his will becomes fact on earth, then the things we pray for will happen. Much more will happen than we could dare to put into words. God’s answer will surpass our boldest prayer. And so that we know it is God who does it all, it will happen even while we are praying or before we have spoken our prayer. Anyone who knocks at God’s door and seeks nothing but God alone, will receive what he asks for in the twinkling of an eye.

The Holy Spirit produces a judgment upon everything that resists him, for the light he brings is a fire that he kindles. For this reason he is a Spirit of reverence. As the Spirit of truth he brings into the light everything that tries to hide. He leads into the reality of ultimate truth by testifying to Christ and, as the Spirit of mercy and of prayer, by bestowing and granting whatever the believing person needs.
- Eberhard Arnold
