Perfect community is a matter of new birth and resurrection. Into our time also, the Holy Spirit of Jesus Christ has placed the power of eternal birth and new resurrection.

- Eberhard Arnold, 1925 Writings SelectedWe love the activity of mind and spirit, too: the richness of all the creative arts and the intellectual and spiritual exploration of history and humanity. Whatever our work, we must recognize and do the will of God in it. And God has entrusted the earth to us not only as an inheritance but also as a task: our garden must become God’s garden, and our work must further God’s work.

March 20,2026
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.
- Eberhard Arnold
March 19,2026
The garden must be won back for God. God himself will conquer and rule it. But men must be ready to accept this rule of God. The kingdom of God has the same earthly sound, the same earth-color, as the vanished paradise. Sin, the destroyer, which has kept us from rejoicing fully in the earth, must be overcome. Not man, renewed by God, but the enemy of God must leave the earth.
- Eberhard Arnold
