within many eternal gifts . But the man runs and works for those that are not , and gives his soul for them , and his soul is from Me , by the first created man . Behold , this is how the man nourishes his soul .
I put the breath of life in the man created by My hand , and he pulled himself out from Me and withdrew into himself with all of My gift , with the breath of life that I gave him , as what I put in him , I did not take back , but I call the man to account for the gift of the life which does not die . The soul does not die , and it comes back to Me , but I call the man to account for those that he had done to his soul .
Man , tell Me what the word „ fast ” is , in order to give you a crown , if you know . Who is the one who knows not to be indebted to the science ? For the man , after he pulled himself out of Me , stole his knowledge from God and knows , and he is indebted to the knowledge of God , if he does not know about it . I told the man to eat and not to eat , and I taught him what food was and what fasting was , but the man fell off the obedience and he has no longer known what obedience is . Obedience is fasting ; it , and not as the man knows that fasting is . The one who does not listen can fast anyhow he wants for he does not fast for Me . The man has to fast from his wills , as he cannot keep My commandments for everlasting life otherwise . ( See the selection topic : „ About fasting and almsgiving ”, r . n .) But the man on the earth does not know what the word „ obedience ” means , and he does not like to live for Me and not for his own self ; for other and not for himself . The one , who lives for his own self , does not make life , either for Me or for anyone else , and not even for himself . The one who lives for his own self , that one remains in his wills and does not live , for he has nothing to live for .
The man pulled himself out from Me and withdrew into himself for disobedience , for immorality , for the will of his instincts that fell from the life , which does not die . The man who woke up against Me chose disobedience towards God and the immorality of his own instincts . Let the disobedient and immoral man no longer say that he loves Me and that he believes in Me and that he knows Me ; let him no longer say such a thing , for he says it in vain , and he says it to himself , not to Me . The man listens only to himself and to his own instincts , which fell on the earth . And here is a question from heaven from God : who is the one who knows what fasting for God is ? The man fasts from food if he fasts , but he does not fast from greed . The man does not fast from hatred , from worldly joy , from slander , from pride , from lust and from immorality . The man does not fast from worldly clothes , from riches , from avarice . He is greedy of all these when he fasts from food . Who shall teach the man what the truth of the word “ fast ” means ? Behold , I come and I teach him .
Be attentive , earth , for the One Who created you speaks over you . It is not the man , who rules over you , that created you , but I created you , man , who set yourself as master over the earth . I told you to eat and not to eat . When I told you to eat , I also taught you what food and obedience were . Obedience means love and life , and disobedience means pride and death , and there between the two stand belief and disbelief . The one who believes in Me has eternal life , a life that does not die , and the one who does not believe in Me , is judged because of the deed of his unbelief . Soon , soon , I bring upon all the flesh the reward of disbelief , a right reward according to the deed , for the man has not liked to listen to the commandment of the life . Behold , the man made yes from no , and no from yes . I taught him what yes meant , and what no meant . I told him that obedience meant yes , and disobedience meant no , and when I told him yes , he said no , and this is what he did ; and when I told him no , he said yes , and this is what he did . From that moment on the man had no longer known what fasting was . I had to come down from heaven then in order to show the
