After a violent shock, Ella opened her eyes.
She wanted to pull out the pen and paper from the void, but couldn't do it several times - so she confirmed that she had returned to the material world.
She smelled the aroma of green grass, with some earthy smell; she touched the gravel on the ground, which was hard and rough. The sun shone on her, giving her a bit of heat; the wind blew on her, taking away some of the heat.
For the first time, she felt the real weight of this material world.
His limbs were limp and his stomach was growling. She sat up and felt dizzy, and her hands began to feel numb.
"I asked you to wake her up. Why did you touch her spirit body? If one of you's spirit body breaks into pieces again, I won't be able to keep you body-guarded for several days?"
The sound of Gottfried being scolded by Habiba floated into Ella's ears.
The mathematician and his master had been lying on the ground for so many days, and their bodies had become dirty again. There were many fallen leaves on their heads and shoulders. Ella thought this look was a bit funny, but as soon as she moved her head, many leaves immediately fell from her head - she herself became just like them.
Members of the Ancient Church of Abraham woke up from the ground one after another - Jochebed's magic that stripped them of their spiritual bodies finally failed.
Jochebed was sitting under a big tree in front of them - he still maintained the position of burying his head in his knees and had not yet woken up.
"How are you practicing the "Chariot Ascension Technique"?" Habiba asked everyone.
Hearing this, everyone showed shame on their faces, and then they talked about it:
"I ascended to the third heaven and suddenly entered a maze. I couldn't get out!"
"Nonsense, there is a maze in the third level! There is only a long noodle flying in the sky!"
"I was about to reach the seventh heaven, and suddenly a lake appeared in front of me. I went to take a dip in it, and then suddenly fell from the sky!"
"Lake? I didn't see the lake, but someone is chasing me! Their wings are dark, they are fallen angels! They are Satan and Lucifer!"
"Absurd! How can Satan and Lucifer go to the seventh heaven? Someone is indeed stopping me, but it is not Satan and Lucifer, but the Seraph Gabriel who guards the heaven! It says that I am not qualified to continue going up!"
During the debate, people gradually realized one thing - although each of them had experienced the experience of "ascending to heaven", what they each saw in heaven was completely different. As a result, none of them succeeded in seeing the Supreme God.
"Habiba, your spirit body is the only one among us that has always been intact. How is your practice going?" someone asked.
"I arrived at the seventh heaven and saw the palace of God. A straw fell from the sky. The straw was three meters long. I used the straw to measure the palace - the palace was surrounded by walls, thick and thick. It is three meters long and three meters high. There is a door to the east with a door railing three meters thick. There is also a guard room, three meters long and three meters wide. I also measured the porch facing the palace. It is three meters thick and four meters deep. The wall is three meters long and three meters wide. The column is one meter thick..."
Everyone took the trouble to interrupt him: "Habiba, just tell me, have you finally seen God?"
"This...I have been measuring the dimensions of this palace from top to bottom...I will come back after measuring it."
An irritable young man shouted: "That's enough! Forget about the "Chariot Climbing Technique" for now. Before Jokibe wakes up, I'll give him a knife and everything will be solved!"
It was too late for others to stop him. The young man took out a knife and rushed towards Jochibed.
Jochibe opened his eyes - Habiba suddenly stood in front of Gottfried and Ella. At the same time, a blazing light flashed in the sky, shining like the sky!
The dazzling light shone on the person's body and immediately turned into boundless fire. The more than twenty members of the Ancient Church of Abraham didn't even have time to exclaim before they were burned to dust!
When the light dissipated, the only people standing still were Habiba, Gottfried and Ella. Their bodies are wrapped in a circle of warm light - this is Habiba's magic. He protected himself and the two people behind him at the critical moment.
It was only then that the knife fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
Jochebed slowly stood up, casting a shadow on the ground.
"Unexpectedly," he said, "Habiba, you can actually block the divine fire. You have also successfully withstood the test of the fire of the seventh heaven? But if so, why do you refuse to accept the divine fire?"
"Jochebed, what have you done?" Ella shouted, "Even if you are a Gnostic, you are also a Semite. Aren't the people you killed all your compatriots?"
Jochebed shook his head: "Kill? No, I am giving them salvation."
"Are you crazy? You call this redemption?"
"What can a pagan understand?"
Jochebed raised his head toward the sky, like a prophet receiving divine revelation.
"I reached the seventh heaven and opened the veil of God. There I saw the angry armies, the fiery Sennaim, the cherubim like torches, the Ovanim like burning coals, and the lightning-like Seraphim, and the eternal light - it made me stand there, turned my body into flames, my veins into fire, my eyelashes into lightning, my eyeballs into torches. It turned my whole being into a holy Angel. It allows me to return with its fire to burn this erroneous material world. Then, all souls will return to the perfect God wrapped in divine fire!"
After saying these words, Jochebed stared at Habiba: "Habiba, you are not my opponent, don't stop me. Since you have been tested by the divine fire, I can ignore you. But you Those two people behind you...get out of my way!"
"I'm sorry. One of those two people is my apprentice, and the other one owes me a roast chicken meal. I can't let you burn him to death right here."
"Why? Don't you want them to be saved? The body is just a prison, let me burn it!"
"With your statement, I think even the Gnostics will label you as a heretic! Aren't you gnostics? What's the use of burning your body if you haven't been saved?" Habiba cursed. , "I don't understand, what's so bad about material things? The roast chicken I ate when I became a spirit body tasted terrible. It was like eating air!"
"I understand, what you see is not the Supreme God. You are blocked and bewitched. What you see is your creator, Laldabaoth (son of Chaos)."
Jochebed raised his head again and said:
"In this case, I will grant you salvation as well. Habiba."
