- Eberhard ArnoldJesus repeatedly challenges us to work while it is still day. He compares his kingdom to labor in a vineyard, to the working investment of moneys entrusted to one, to the good use of all one’s talents.

The Lord of peace wholly consecrates and sanctifies men and human life to His perfect purity and unity. He demands the surrender of life and everything belonging to it. Peace belongs to all those who do good, who surrender everything to love, and it belongs to them alone. Peace streams from the mercy of God. It reveals His heart.

The believing and loving people who are united in the holy flame protect not themselves but the flame of the Spirit which is the only assurance of true life. They do not seek to keep their own life; they seek alone that of the holy fire in which they have lost their own nature.
