The heirs of the old covenant of unity, in dedication to Christ, extend the work of peace over the whole earth. For all land belongs to God. Jesus has shed the glowing heat of His rule of peace from the other world into the world of men.

- Eberhard ArnoldThe good human urge is only capable of realizing community and justice if in its deepest depths it allows itself to be overpowered and ruled by God’s urge, by the impulse of his Holy Spirit, by Christ who becomes man, so that God’s kingdom, Christ’s kingdom may come! In our humanness we lack the right expectation of what is to come, in the sense that it is from God, from the other world, from the powers of the future, that the kingdom of justice must and will burst in upon us – not through the efforts of good people.

Yesterday's quote
February 18,2026
All that mankind has in common today is suffering. Joy is alive in this suffering only as hope, but nonetheless as joyful faith in a better future. Without this joyful courage there would be no mutual help. The help given by one person to another proves that in spite of everything, faith in future healing cannot die.

Those truths of the spirit’s struggle are best experienced in life itself. In the steadfast constancy of faith, which is the fighting spirit itself, one then says “Yes” to this out of one’s heart. For this fight is indeed the highest love itself, as we know from Blumhardt and above all from the crucified One himself .
