Jesus said that the kingdom of God is within each human, but the devil wants to suppress the good spirit in us. Consequently, it is up to each person to fight for the kingdom in their own heart, and make his heart ready for God’s coming kingdom. As Eberhard Arnold said in 1933: “To be ready is everything! Let us be ready! The expectation of God’s coming shall be our active readiness, so that we stretch out our hands to him, to be crucified with him; so that we are on our knees, ready to be humbled by him; so that we lay down all our power over ourselves, that he alone may have power over us.”
