To experience the totality of those who believe in Christ as one organism, as one body, as the Body of Christ, is a special experience of faith. With this Body we are indissolubly united; its life is our life, its deficiency is our deficiency, its weakness is our weakness, its strength is our strength.

- Eberhard ArnoldWhen the day of judgment masses the clouds closer and closer, we must be prepared to go the way of Jesus’ cross with a mind completely at peace. Just as perfect love was once revealed in the death of Jesus, when he was judged, so too the Church of Christ must still have added to it what is still lacking of Christ’s suffering. We have to go still deeper into the willing acceptance of the cross and death, and only when we are ready for this can we ask God to intervene and make history.
