- Eberhard Arnold, July 1934We take for granted the full forgiveness of sin, which is given to us in our unworthiness. We do not need to keep affirming it; it is made sure in our hearts through the Holy Spirit; through Him we are born anew to the justice of God’s Kingdom. Not our inadequacy, but God’s perfect will is what fills our life and thinking now. Therefore, from now on our entire interest goes away from ourselves toward all peoples of the earth and toward all worlds of God, toward near and far creatures of God, toward those who have died and those yet unborn.

The root of life is the spirit of joy which starts to grow when life is kindled. When the soul is fired by the Holy Spirit, then it triumphs in the body; a great flame of new life leaps up.
