2010.02.14. 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 diso- bedient 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 im- mortal 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 2
