Unless we share the need and guilt of the world, we fall a prey to untruthfulness and lifelessness, to eternal and physical death.

- Eberhard ArnoldEven if Christ suffered death a thousand times, if you do not die with him on his cross, he would have died in vain. In vain, that is, in regard to your person. Unless you die with Jesus on the cross in such a way that you are no longer a part of the other atmosphere, like a dead man on whom that atmosphere no longer has any claim, Christ will have died in vain. And unless Christ and the atmosphere of life penetrate your life through the Holy Spirit, you will not win this battle. In the power of the Risen One alone can this battle be won.

Yesterday's quote
February 25,2026
The inner source of strength, which in silent stillness lets God himself speak and work, leads the believer from the decline of death to the dawn of life. This life forces its way outwards in the stream of creative spirit, and yet cannot lose itself in the outer world.

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.
- Eberhard Arnold
