(Ev.6, 9–12; Mark 7, 31–37) “Flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God” (1 Cor. 15:50). Consequently, in order to receive the Kingdom it is necessary to disembodied and bleed, that is, to establish oneself in such a character of life that there is as if there is no blood and flesh. This is achieved by complete renunciation of blood and carnal deeds. “The works of the flesh are known; they are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, quarrels, envy, anger, strife, disagreements, (temptations of) heresies, hatred, murder, drunkenness, disorderly conduct and the like.” Having listed all this, the apostle adds: “I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do this will not inherit the Kingdom of God” (Gal. 5:19-21).
