'To the restorer, anything that cannot root itself in God as its source has no place in the life of the Christian or the practices of the community of God.'
'Restoration is not a last-minute interventionist act that will conclude this age; it is a progressive process throughout time.'
'Man is the key to the restoration purpose of God in all creative spheres, including the angelic orders, the cleansing of the heavens, the overthrow of satanic powers, and the establishment of righteousness and justice throughout the earth.'
'Restoration, then, must incorporate the reconciliation of man to God, restoring fellowship between the Creator and His creature. It also must bring family reconciliation between man and man, as well as reconcile man to his responsibility as guardian of the earth and of his environment.'
from The Radical Church (1999)
