Our all-inclusive task is to awaken the people of Israel to the impending catastrophe, to shake out of sleep the whole of mankind before their certain overthrow, that all may be prepared for the coming Kingdom.

- Eberhard ArnoldWe expect God’s future with as much assurance as a farmer awaits his coming harvest. We need to be prepared for terrible suffering and the cruelest death in these dangerous times, for we know that faith can be proved only in distress and persecution. The wrath of God and the fire of his judgment must spread across a world unprepared for his coming. And if we, too, give way to our flesh and want to be spared, if we crave for the comfortable life we led earlier with the rest of the world, then we shall have to meet judgment like everyone else and remain far from God’s kingdom of God.

It was Jesus who showed and brought and gave us God’s nature and power. Ever since He came, it is possible for us to pray to the Father in spirit and in truth. This spirit of truth makes us free from the impure mixing of religious practices with their human emphasis on what is outward and their idolatrous materialization. It brings us into the unified realm of the pure Church of God and of God’s unconditional rulership. This truth is the essence and reality of God’s genuine, clear word as it has gone forth from Him from the beginning.

Let us always work together, upright and clear and at the same time in faith and confident joy. Christ gives us this possibility of putting truth into practice as love, and love as purity and freedom.
