An Elder said: “The Devil occupies himself constantly with any flaw in a monk; for, as a certain Saint said, a habit which persists for a long period of time acquires natural power, and above all in those who are greatly negligent. So, as long as you are healthy, cease seeking every food which you strongly long for. Eat that which God sends you and be thankful to Him at all times.”

"Sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto you"



John 5:12-14
Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk? 13. And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place. 14. Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee.

John 5:15-17
The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. 16. And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day. 17. ¶But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh hitherto, and I work.

John 5:20-21

For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. 21. For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

John 5:22-23

For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: 23. That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
