It must have been difficult for you to see so much break down under God’s flashes of lightning, to have to recognize so much as inadequate, yes, some of it even as dangerous and destructive! Not only that which is evil, also that which is almost good, must yield to what is better, what is alone and truly good.

- Eberhard ArnoldWe ask only one thing: that the Holy Spirit come to us and establish among us the government and reign of God; that nothing else count for us but only this one thing, the Spirit of the coming kingdom of Jesus Christ. Him we entreat to step into the life of this community, so that from here he may stream out and radiate into the whole world, into the hearts of all men; a hidden and mysterious working of this very Spirit who speaks his word from heart to heart and from soul to soul, who carries his message onward, reveals his life, proclaims his prophecy, and manifests his reality.

In speaking before others, it is possible for a great miracle to happen. God, really God, works so powerfully that speakers and listeners no longer feel anything that comes from men, especially from the one speaking, whom they forget completely. They are so overpowered by God that chains fall, sickness departs, new birth is given and God and His Kingdom alone prevail.

It is depressing to see how blunt everything still is, how little we come to a holy revolution, how little we fight the battle until death, how little we dare to break with all existing values toward that which is to come! I do wish that you may dare the utmost. The utmost begins with the free decision to fight against oneself, to give up oneself, to place one’s very small self into the very great for which alone it is worth living. May Christ be your deliverer and leader in this!
