Fasting concept

Fasting concept
The concept of purity, like the concept of fasting, should not be impoverished. The word “purification” comes from kat-artios, which means a process towards wholeness, perfection. So, kharsis denotes an inner stability, an integrity of character that remains completely devoted to God in the face of any temptations. It presupposes a gradual spiritual transformation from disintegration to wholeness. And so, according to the hymn, true fasting is a “means” to “wholeness.”

Along with the struggle to eliminate passions, the purpose of fasting is to introduce believers to the glory of new life in the Lord through the Cross. So, when we feel the minimal physical hunger that fasting brings, we try to reform it and reshape it into a “hunger and thirst” for Christ.
