He who waits for God expects judgment and fire. In the judgment of fire the light of His salvation shines forth. If your vision fails when you look at the sun, it is the fault of your eyes, not of the great light.

- Eberhard Arnold Why We Live in CommunityAll life – including the variety we see in nature – is a parable of the future community of the kingdom of God. Just as the air surrounds us, or as a blowing wind engulfs us, we need to be immersed in the blowing Spirit, who unites and renews everything. And just as water washes and cleanses us every day, so in the symbol of baptism we witness to our purification from everything that is of death.

Faith’s entered in –
- Eberhard Arnold, Sannerz, ca. 1921
true conversion is here.
Now the will is pure
and active and clear.
God is this will,
and he gives from above
new life, where all
was dead, and new love.

Yesterday we again had about a hundred people in our house. The Letter to the Romans, which is the affirmation of justice, and the question of group living in community of goods, was our agenda…What we want is not an academic or student organization. We want personal, organic exchange between university people, middleclass and working class people, who are moved by Christ and lead a free life of inward truthfulness and love.
- Eberhard Arnold
