As educators, you need the daily leading of the spirit of light which immediately recognizes, attacks and does away with all darkening elements, even before they can come to rule over the little sensitive souls.

- 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 02,2026
A turning is necessary; but anyone who would remain at the point of turning is not usable for the kingdom of God. The decisive thing is to see God’s kingdom, to enter God’s kingdom.

February 01,2026
Not our inadequacy, but God’s perfect will is now the substance of our life and thinking. Therefore, from now on our entire interest goes away from ourselves, toward all people of the earth and of all worlds of God, toward near and far creatures of God; toward those who have died and those unborn. The interest of God’s kingdom embraces the times and spaces of all worlds of God, of the earth as well as of all other worlds with all their spiritual princes and creatures of light. That God’s kingdom may become reality on earth as it is real in heaven—that is what we have to live for. Certainly, for this a turning is necessary.
- Eberhard Arnold
