Like the above posts said, no one knows how God will judge each one of us but i think that He does look at intentions... for example, if you find see something in a store that you really like and really want... But you don't have enough money to bu…

That's exactly what was asking above... like, i know its wrong and just because it might be legal in where one might live, it still doesnt mean that its ok. But does that mean all those hymns and stuff that we download from the coptic websites is a…

[quote author=SaintaMaria05 link=topic=6233.msg82291#msg82291 date=1203316754] The reason is usually to escape the praise of the people in which may lead to the satisfaction of the "ego" which is a good trap Satan use to get you away from God. Also …

I think Lost pretty much said it all... but we also have to keep in mind that we shouldnt be questioning God and that everything happens for a reason. Everything bad that happens to us, God will make good out of it; so always have faith and always …

I dont think that the Church will allow her to marry again in the first place unless there is proof of her husband's death, for example, a letter stating that her husband has passed away during the war. I understand what Regretful+Sinner is trying…

It's not wrong to cry at all... Crying is a way for humans to let out feelings, and it's infact not normal for a human not to cry because its a way of coping with the hurt feelings within us. Also, ya we should cry for Christ in the sense of repen…

Actually, from what I know; girls can be deacons too but before the age of 12... Once they hit the age 12 they no longer are allowed because of the whole period thing.

Please anyone correct me if I'm wront but from what I know is that the church is against capital punishment for, like you said "who are we to take away a God-given life, especially when if imprisoned, one can repent and change his ways?" Also, but …

One of my favourite stories is about St. Moses the black because this shows us how loving our God is and no matter how many sins or how big our sins may be, our God is very loving and forgiving as long as we confess, repent and we truely mean it fr…

Start one step at a time, sit down with her and try to understand her reasoning for saying what she is saying to you. It might just be a phase that she is going through... And take it one step at a time, next try to show her love through your actio…

[quote author=markos123 link=topic=6138.msg82207#msg82207 date=1203117575] The separation of people into these cliques are based on the most worldly of things. we are all one church, and if these things are what divide us, than that is an issue. id…

Hi Loca4Christ, I think a lot of us can relate to what you are going through to a certain extent; just remember that life has it's ups and downs and its not going to always give us what we want or go the way we want it to! But also keep in mind th…

Im going to use Christmas as an example; Christmas morning (which was on a sunday) there was a Liturgy held, and later on at night there is the Christmas Liturgy. It is more then 9 hours; so in that case we are allowed to have the Holy Communion mo…

I actually have a friend who went to one of those things... And when she went up and he touched her, she did not fall, so he looked at her and asked her to leave. This shows you that the people fall down on voluntairly as they are pushed down. And a…

Just because its ok in the country you live in or because its ok in this world, it still doesn't make it right. Always ask yourself What Would Jesus Do? and do as he would do... Also, try to keep in mind that this world is not our where we belong so…

I actually asked my parents about this because its a very good question, and what they said to me was that when the child is being baptised, its like he's being born again so he/she is given a new name for that reason. Also, because not all names t…

Hi John_S2000, Thank you so much for ur translation, it is very helpful and I learned a lot of things from it. So thanks again!!

Hi again, It's the same idea with infants when being baptised, that new name symbolizes their new life with Jesus Christ.

Hi Coptic Servant, Anyone can correct me if Im wrong, but I believe that the reason Priest and Bishops are assigned new names is because that new name represents their "new" life. They forget about their old life and they begin their new one!
