There is no other life of faith than that of the unity and community in which Christ lives. Faith lives in Christ. The deepest relationship of unity is the necessary condition for the restoration and renewal of life. The believer is in Christ and Christ is in him; this is the power that transforms from within all relationships of life.

- Eberhard ArnoldIn the final kingdom, God is victorious over all worlds and takes possession of them in complete justice and perfect peace. Therefore the church is placed into this world as an embassy established by the Holy Spirit so that it may proclaim and put into practice this new kingdom of reborn mankind. The only way this is possible is through the forgiveness of sins: Christ is revealed as the perfect Redeemer, who alone is the center, not only as the King of the coming kingdom, but as the heart and head of his church.

Yesterday's quote
June 15,2026
The lightning descends and reveals the tension between the small “I” of man and the great “Thou” of God. The heart of man, as an “I” that remains very small, worships in complete surrender of will the great “Thou” that gives itself to him in incomprehensible goodness.

Union with God is possible only when all powers opposed to God, all facts and actions opposed to Him, are radically destroyed. Therefore forgiveness and removal of sin, release and liberation must be the basic substance of every experience of God. Forgiveness is the removal of things as they are. What is hostile to God cannot be present when God unites. He wants perfect purity in uniting. Thus everything that is opposed to purity must be taken away. This is forgiveness. Without this, God’s kingdom will not come.
