If we ask God earnestly that His will may become a fact on earth, that His nature may be revealed in work, that His rulership may lead men to unity, righteousness and love, then our life will become work. Faith without works is dead. Prayer without work is hypocrisy. The Lord’s Prayer without the way of God’s kingdom is a lie. The prayer of Jesus wants to bring us to the point where its words are turned into deeds, so that the prayer becomes action and history.

- Eberhard Arnold The Meaning and Power of Prayer LifeGod went out from himself. He has truly revealed himself in His Word, in the creation which came to pass through His Word, in the incarnation of His Word, and in His Spirit of truth and unity. God has opened His heart. He has come forth from himself. He has turned toward us. He has revealed His thoughts to us. He has revealed His essence and His will to us. We little, weak beings are the object of His concern.

Yesterday's quote
April 21,2026
He who was put to an ignominious death is and remains the coming Lord of God’s future age. He who was dead has become alive again. The present age is facing its end. The greatest turning point which can occur in the history of the world and in the order of creation is imminent. Jesus will come for the second time with authority and glory. Then the rule of God shall be established over the whole earth.

The new future brings to an end all existing ruling powers, all systems of law and property. The coming kingdom of God is already revealed as unity in the perfect love of God, and therefore as devoted brotherhood of men. Jesus proclaimed and brought God alone, God’s coming rule and empire alone. Jesus founded neither churches nor sects.
