Quotes by Christa von Viebahn

We are here to show love to all people, no matter how they act toward us.

I reject everything that comes from Satan, the defeated one, and I choose everything that comes from God.
Christa von Viebahn

We are to proclaim the complete defeat of Satan and the victory of the Lord, the kingship of the Son of God. Christ and Satan must be shown to the world as the two poles around which everything revolves. Every person bows to one or the other of these two rulers. The final cause underlying all struggles and conflicts lies in this fight between darkness and light, between Satan and God.
Christa von Viebahn

Child of God, become and remain aware that the devil is the utterly defeated enemy and adversary of God. Remind him of that when he tries to press you and influence you! Since Christ accomplished his wonderful work of redemption and sat down as victor at the right hand of the Father, Satan has no more power and no more right over people. Where he exercises it, he does so unlawfully.
