Fight and struggle alongside your Savior for the
great goal! Believe! Believe that the Almighty
God came in Jesus to snatch us out of hell.
Even if occasionally you have to bear some evil
or misery, what have you to complain about?
Your goal is something else; your goal is the
goal of humankind, and humankind's goal is
your goal. The goal for all of us is the great
redemption, the great freeing, from the whole
mass of sin that has lain upon us for centuries.
Our goal is the destruction of the devil, of hell,
and all darkness. It is the coming to life again in
Jesus, our Lord, who came to us so that we, as
his brothers, might come to the Father in heaven.
Fight together with us! He who loves Jesus
must turn away from all else and fight for the
faith of his fellowmen, beginning with himself.
Christoph Friedrich Blumhardt, from
Jesus Is Victor, The Faith-Giving Savior.
