The Word of God[1] on the Sunday of Adam’s expulsion from paradise[2]

Oh, I long after My love in man and My longing is long and hard. I am the One Who built the man out of My love to make him then the house of My love and to have rest in him, for love is hard and it needs rest. Before the man was, My love was, the love from God, and I made the man out of it, and then I made him out of dust in order to be the house of My love and so that I may look at it and have rest in it then from the hardship of My love, for God is big and He needs rest.

I am coming as word into My book during these days, and I am finding it open and I am coming in and speaking for My beginning with the man. I am the Word of God and I was the Word at the beginning, as I am now, in the end, and everything has been made by My spoken word, and nothing was made without Me, for only God is the One Who works, only He. I am Who I am and I am the One Who does, and I did and I do everything out of love, for I am love, and My wound has been deep after I made the man, for I have not been able to rest with My love in him. I made him to have rest with My great and hard love and to look at it face to face with it, and I said that it was well, and since then I have been only sufferance. I was speaking the word of creation and then I was looking and seeing that it was good and then I looked over everything I made, and the heaven, the earth and their whole armies were very good, and on the seventh day I rested from all the creation that I made. The man knew only the good, as this is what I meant for him and in this way I loved him so much, and I wanted that he might not know the evil, and that the evil might not know the man either, and that is why I told him to keep away from evil and to work the good, to be happy and to be immortal. Only the one who knows evil, only that one is mortal, because I told Adam: «You shall not eat of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil; for in the day that you eat of it you will surely die». (Gen: 2/17)

Oh, the man did not listen not to touch those that were God’s good things, those that only God had to know, to keep under control and to protect the man from tempting God; however, man wanted to tempt God’s being and so he did, and then he saw his fall and was afraid of God and wanted to hide. However, I was walking and speaking over him and when I called him to answer Me where he hid, he died, he died to Me, for he who knows like God longs after himself and not after God and he does no longer have God to be great upon him, because he hides from Him, as Adam did. He, who hides, hides because of the evil in him, and men blame each other and from one another before God, as it was in the beginning and after man knew evil and thus becoming sin in man, that is God’s death in man.

Oh, what great love for the man’s redemption from sin had those who established the opening of the man’s sight and days of long fast, after he sees his fall from life by the awakening of the evil in him! The saints and the fathers have established fifty days of fast for the faithful ones (See the selection topic: „About fasting and almsgiving”, r.n.) and they gave the example of Adam’s expulsion from paradise, so that man may have power of repentance and longing after the paradise, for the paradise was on earth and it is still on the earth now, and it is covered within mystery and it has the sword of the invisible fire within its gate.

Adam had an immortal body, but his disobedience clothed him in a mortal body, in which the lust and the sin dwell together, and Adam took himself in his thought and put God away from him. Oh, it is not well with the man to live with himself in his own thought but with Me, for he who lives within his own self in his thought that one does no longer have God in him, in his thought, but only for fear, and the fear makes the man tired and it makes him hide as Adam did. I exhorted the man to seek to get away the sin of tempting God, and no longer commit this sin, for when Adam gave up his listening to God, he also started to tempt God and His work, His being and His wisdom, thinking that he might get above God, but his body, on that very moment, became mortal, for I told him that in the day he would violate My command he would die, and Adam had to fall from paradise then, like the one who would die in his body, and thus he inflicted this sufferance on the whole human race that has come after him. 

Oh, behold how much damage a man who sins does! Instead of being good, instead of being obedient, instead of fasting, as I told him to do, Adam wanted to be above God and started to tempt God’s being and His work, by which everything has been made. Adam did not see Me but he only heard My voice and My walking, and with gentleness I asked him when he hid: «Have you broken My word?» (See Gen: 3/12)

Man has been asking himself why I did not stop Adam in due time and why I told him only after he had sinned against Me and against himself. Oh, I know what I did. I made the man out of My love and I wanted him to love Me as well, but if he does not want, then love does not have to be pushed from behind, but rather man has to do this freely, for it is no love otherwise. Even when I questioned him about his disobedience, I did it with gentleness, for I was the One Who had to be loved by the one built by Me for the love between Me and him afterwards. Love does not punish when it is in man, and I was the Love and I worked with gentleness before the one who trampled love, for this is how love works. Whoever does not have love does not have it at all, but he who has it, then love becomes pain in the one who has no way how to put it to rest.

Man does not have love because he has got lust, and love is not mingled with the man’s body. I am coming as word now, in the end of the time, I am coming as in the beginning and I am speaking with the man as in the beginning, and I am working mysteriously, and it does not come to the man’s mind how I do My work of today, and the doubtful and disobedient man like Adam tempts with his mind My work and falls like Adam, who thought to tempt My being and to be a god in My place over everything. Oh, many have fallen like Adam from among those who have tempted My today’s work, for the unbelief has no shame when it comes to make its dwelling place in man, when man, like Adam, wants to search out the mysterious and well covered meanings of My works into the midst of the people. I do not help the man to understand how I work for him and for everything that I have to fulfill, but I help him to believe by touching his heart, by helping his love, and those who believe in My mysteries are only those who love with My love in them, not with theirs, for the love in man becomes sin in him, for him and for man, because man loves himself by the love that he has got in him.

I am speaking in this day only out of pain, for it is a hard and long time since the immortal man put on the mortal body by knowledge, by the sin of temptation, a sin by which the man can hardly believe in God, and by which he falls from the grace of the faith, which comes from love, from Me, in the one who loves Me with his heart and not with his mind. All those who have wanted to think with their mind have not got a heart for God, and they have lost the way and passed on to the way that leads the man astray. Two thousand years ago, I gave My whole love to man and I became Myself a Man and I became the tree of life on the earth and gave Myself to man to believe and to take Me in his own body as the first fruit of his redemption from the sin of his fall from the beginning.

In the beginning man knew only the good and then he took and knew the evil as well, and then he was ashamed of God, and then they were ashamed of each other as they saw themselves naked, and those who have not listened have known their nakedness after that. Oh, the man has been weak since then and up to this day and he has been drawn to sin on and on. The man has longed to know the sin that deceives by this fleeting sweetening in the fallen man’s flesh. I would like the man to do away with this poison in him by himself, for it took him out of paradise. Oh, if it was good what man had loved and what he had called love, then why did I take him out of paradise?

Oh, it is the death in man that man loves in his body! How shall I free the man from his pond of blood, in which he has been staying getting sweet from his own blood?

How shall I do, man, how shall I do with you to condemn the sin in your body and to let it there not being known by you, as I wanted you to be when I put you in paradise giving you immortality? Do you like dying? Oh, you do not die only when your body remains without you, without your soul. You die whenever the sin gets sweet in you with its poison from the beginning, which makes you give God away from you and makes you live in your house made by God. You have not been thankful! You have wanted to know about you Maker, about His being and you have longed after it, and woe, then you have fallen, as one who has been looking after what is not yours.

Oh, the man stays face to face with the sin and he cannot overcome and he gets united with it instead, one body with it after that and the Lord is outside, for He is the
