Friday Quote Up
“The New Testament communities never considered capitulation to the naive dreams of “all men becoming brothers” or of “millions being embraced.” In a very realistic manner they sought to achieve fraternal love within their own ranks and constantly make simultaneous effors to transcend their boundaries. In this fashion an ever increasing number of people was drawn into the fraternity of the church, and neighborly relationships became possible.” Lofink, Jesus and Community, 114
