The church-community . . . is conceived of as a single life to such an extent that none of its members could be imagined apart from it. But in the church-community every member is moved by the Holy Spirit; all have their divinely appointed place and their wills moved by the Spirit. Whoever lives in love is Christ in relation to the neighbor—but, of course, always only in this respect. “We are God through the love that makes us charitable toward our neighbor.”
