The age of God lies in the future; but it has already been revealed. Its nature and its power have become personal and historical in Jesus. They have been shown forth in His words. They have fought through to victory in His life work.

- Eberhard Arnold

Because the believer has himself recognized, in the word of truth and in the life and deeds and death of Jesus, that holiness in which the love of God is dwelling, he is constantly aware of what separates and divides men from this unity which is the only source of life. He must thank God anew for the certainty that his sin is taken away and forgiven by God himself. He is one with God and His Church through the victory of Jesus over the evil deeds of the demonic powers of self. He goes to meet God in complete confidence.

- Eberhard Arnold

Anyone who suffers from a lack of love must seek the renewing of his life in the deepest faith of the Church and in the power of the Holy Spirit. Only then will he be able to remain firm in the love of God. For his whole life will be turned in holy expectation toward the heart of Jesus and His coming eternity.
