The Feeding of the Five Thousand — Jesus Walks on Water

The part-power of the primordial power in Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ — Explanation of the multiplication of the fishes — Living and dead food — Castigation and fanaticism — The transformation of negative habits on the path to a higher life (4-7). Fear is doubt in the power and love of God (12-13). There are no coincidences — The transformation of man into the divine only by working on himself (14). Not everyone receives help and healing (17-18)

1. The Passover feast came and the apostles and those who accompanied them gathered around Jesus and told Him everything that they had done and taught. And He said to them, “Come and let us go to a secluded place and rest a little.” For many people came and went and they could not even eat in peace.
2. And they took a boat and secretly sailed to a lonely place. But the people saw them sailing away. Many knew Him and ran there on foot from all the cities. They arrived there first and met together close by Him.
3. And as Jesus got out of the boat, He saw many people; and He was moved to compassion, for they were like sheep who had no shepherd.
4. As the day was almost over, the disciples came to Him and said, “This is a secluded place and the time is almost over. Send them away, so that they may go into the nearby villages in order to buy bread; for they have nothing to eat.”
5. But Jesus answered, saying to them, “Give them something to eat!” And they said to Him, “Should we go and buy bread for two hundred pennies and give them something to eat?”
6. But He said to them, “How much bread do you have? Go and see.” And when they knew, they said, “Six loaves of bread and seven clusters of grapes.” And He told them all to sit down on the grass in groups of fifty. And they sat down in rows of hundreds and of fifties.
7. And as He took the six loaves of bread and the seven clusters of grapes, He looked up to heaven, blessed and broke the bread and did the same with the grapes, and gave them to His disciples so that they could serve them to the people, and they distributed everything among the people. (Chap. 29:1-7)

I, Christ, explain, correct and deepen the word:

I, Christ, worked in Jesus with the full authority of the Father; for in Jesus I was the Christ, the I Am, from eternity to eternity, the Co-Regent of the heavens.

As the part-power of the primordial power, I brought in Jesus the decisive turn in the fall event: The part-power of the primordial power became the redeeming power and is the support for all souls and people, and is effective as the energy of evolution for all souls and people.
My heritage, the part-power of the primordial power, flowed in Me, the Jesus, and worked through Me. And so I linked Myself with My mighty heritage and with this power I could do the great so-called miracles and healings.
My task also encompassed helping, healing and the raising of the dead. This I did with the full authority of My Father in connection with My heritage, the part-power of the primordial power, and with this, I showed the people the power of the Christ of God on earth. With the multiplication of the bread, the fruit and also the fish, I showed them that no person has to hunger nor be in want, if he fulfils the laws of God.
In this so-called miracle of the multiplication, it was revealed that man could live in the fullness, if he fulfilled the will of God; because the universal law is inexhaustible for spirit beings and for the souls and human beings who do the will of My Father, who is also their Father.
My disciples brought Me bread and grapes to be multiplied. On that day, dead fish were also offered to Me in order to be multiplied. As I took this dead substance into My hands, I explained to the people that the power-potential of the Father, the high power of life, was gone from it for the most part and that I would not create live fish so that they be killed again.
I explained to the people that life is in all forms of life and that man should not kill them deliberately. The people, especially the children, looked at Me very sadly. They could not understand Me, because they lived for the most part from fish, bread and little else. And then I spoke to them in the following sense: The energies of the earth are still maintaining the dead fish. And so I will not give you living fish from the Spirit of the Father; but — from the energy of the earth — I will create for you fish that are dead, that is, poor in vibration. They will never bear life and cannot be killed. I will show you how living things — bread and fruits — taste, and in comparison with them, the taste of the dead food.
And from the energies of the earth, I created for them fish which bore little spirit substance. I gave them the dead fish and, at the same time, I offered them bread and fruits to eat, so that they could recognize the difference between living and dead nourishment, between highly-vibrating and low-vibrating food.
In this and similar ways, I taught the people. Furthermore, I showed them — and with that I also show you who read My words — that every abrupt break with old habits is fanaticism. The one who lets go of his old habits from one minute to the next experiences an abrupt break and not a transformation in himself. There lies in this abrupt break the germ for a renewed outbreak of the old suppressed habits, which could then come out more persistently and be more difficult to put away than before the time of castigation.
Thus, the old habits should not be abruptly stopped, but it should be a gradual letting go that leads to a transformation in which the person turns to higher goals and values. This is a spiritual departure to new shores.
Fanaticism lies in every castigation. In feelings and thoughts, a fanatic judges his neighbors who still have the same or similar things as what he has suppressed. In this way, he nourishes what is suppressed.

Recognize that often much humanness still has to be granted to the man of habit, until he himself recognizes his mistakes and, through self-recognition and self-experience — or through suffering — lets go of the old in order to mature spiritually. This is then correct understanding and law-abiding guidance.
And so, with the multiplication of the fishes, I showed that man should transform and not castigate himself. Every transformation is accomplished in a law-abiding way; it is the complete change from a lower to a higher life. Just as a stone cannot turn into a flower from one day to the next, but only in the process of evolution, in the same way, the one whose habits lie in his blood and in his soul cannot change into an absolutely spiritual person from one hour to the next. Just as the stone changes in the course of evolution, the human being changes from the lower to the higher.
Thus, the change is a transformation from what is human to what is spiritual. In this lies the gradual letting go of humanness and at the same time the awakening of spiritual divineness.
