humans. For when God said to the first two humans, especially to
Adam, "Work and keep." How is "keep" interpreted? From whom to
guard? From whom to beware? My wife and I are not. There is a
third. And we saw the one called the day before yesterday how he presented the deceit when
we spoke about the fall of Eve. We do not know exactly when the fall occurred
. However, we know that he comes from the angelic world and the angelic
world had become the first material world. For we have testimony from the scriptures that
when God was creating the earth, the stars, and so on, Satan was there.
He says that the angels of God were praising him when he created. Therefore, the
spiritual world existed. Thus
Job states in his 38th chapter. If you read it, you will find it in this chapter and this topic
existed. Well, from this now comes his chronology, his years. Well,
how old do you think Satan is approximately according to the scriptures, not according to
scientists. They neither believe in the existence of Satan, nor do they believe in the
real chronology. Based on their science, they put zero numbers
and make up numbers. Sometimes they make them smaller. From millions of years,
the Russians have recently come up with something that is only 100 thousand years old. That's how
they come up with it lately. Otherwise they add zeros or erase zeros.
The world did not sit still. This will be a doctrine. Be it so or not.
Man's salvation does not depend on whether he knows how to answer how old the earth is. How
old. We know from scripture that man is not telling you about the earth. Man
until Christ is 5.58 years ago.
Add 1000 980 where we are now. We reach approximately
7,500 years. Now when exactly the fall took place between the creation
of the angels and the creation of the man that we find already
made, this gentleman, we do not know exactly. However, we are dealing
with a person who is approximately 7,500 years old. We are not dealing with some little girl with
her month who learned everything and closes the door to the faces of her mother and
father. We are not dealing with any of the young people of
today. We are dealing with a satan, with a devil, with a
cunning one, with 7,500 years of experience and it is ridiculous for him who thinks
that he will escape him alone. Alone. Because together with the Lord, with
Christ, with grace, he limits his
influence over him. He limits him many times and completely exhausts him
. But he is there motionless. next to the soul of man and
takes care day and night, but with the hand, but with the eye, but with the mind, but with the touch,
but with the bone, but with the bone, but with the bone to put him in his hand, to get his signature.
He has been fighting for many years in fact with spiritual people. He takes care
in myriad ways to be able to put them in his hand. Satan primarily
uses, as the fathers say, three ways. I would like, it made sense to me
and I kept them. To convey them to you too. He makes
a way, sets his traps for man, so that if he does not catch him here, he will
catch him further, if he does not catch him further, he will catch him further, somewhere
he will catch him. Because Satan sows now in order to reap after 100,000
years. Satan is not a child, nor a little girl, nor
an educated person. Satan is cunning. Experience, he has eaten
new people. He has eaten wise men, he has eaten ascetics, he has eaten patriarchs, he has eaten
saints. It is difficult for a person to escape Satan if
a person does not do exactly what Christ tells him. Because everything that Christ says, everything that
Christ teaches, that Christ built in his church and left here in
this inn, are all works for people who fall into equal ranks.
Learn, listen, read and learn the interpretation
of the parable of the good Samaritan, of the
fallen robber. From there you will interpret the whole case of Satan. Listen, then,
according to Saint John of the Ladder, this Nyptikos father, to the three
ways that Satan uses. He says in his own language.
The demons define three pits for us. Three pits. The pit is a pit. He says the devils make three
pits to catch us. At intervals, of course
these. And first of all, they are old-fashioned, they cling to good, they are born. Born.
First, they take care not to let man do good. Good to
his fellow man and good to himself. For it is not only to do good
to his fellow man, since you are wronging yourself. Since you are wronging yourself by
confession, by divine communion, by fasting, by abstinence, by restraint
of the tongue, by childbearing, since you are wronging yourself by that. First, then,
he says, he takes care to make it difficult for people to prevent them from doing
good either to themselves or to others. If they do not succeed in this, they will not
succeed unless man overcomes this and despite the
temptations and suggestions that he puts forward, they move forward, then he says, do
the following. Second after the first, this was the name according to God, this was born. Do
it but let it not be done exactly as God wants it. Because you know
Basil the Great says that good is not good or if you do not do it well. He says good
is not good if it does not become good. I give but I give from stolen things. I give from
wronged things. You understand, therefore, he looks at this good that you will
do so that it does not become good as God wants it. I do something and I tell it.
I say I will give but I will write it there. Although the commandment is that whatever
your right hand does, your left hand should not know it. So he looks at you, since you
escape from the first and you are willing to do something good to
yourself and to others, then he takes care to put you in his hands with
the thought that this will not become good as God wants it, genuine, without limits, to have
foreign materials inside. If you escape him again from this point and he does not catch you,
then he sets you another one below, since you do it and you do it and good, then
he sets up another one, then he says when this too is stolen, the achievement of the purpose.
Then the sychos come next to you
now, until now they have been an obstacle to you not to do it, they did not succeed, now
since you have done them, they come next to you now, silence, reminding you that our soul
is blessed, as those who are governed according to God, he comes and tells you
, I wish that like and another like you, this is his job and he does not
do it, he is self-centered and does nothing, you layman and you do
this thing this is for the rich and you are deprived and you give
your thumbs up this is what God wants e If he succeeds and inflates your mind a
little bit, see your so-called mind, you have lost all these things. If
he succeeds and puts you on a cigarette paper, how high can
a cigarette paper give if he puts you on the cigarette paper to step on and only
say a little that what you did others do not do. What you made
there where you were present that was a job of lunatics and you did it and
so on or I wish that like there another like me and the others caught you there and
took everything from you. He is cunning. And only God is the one who gives
enlightenment to man to see the traps of Satan. If you read the life of
Saint Anthony, you will be horrified by the traps of Satan, which this
spiritual man saw and guarded against. We do not see
his traps. No.
