  • I was talking net icons, but I also have an actual icon of the three holy youth (I dont know if you consider that rare considering I dont know anyone who does) along with a few more icons. But all in all I was speaking of icons on computer not physi…
  • Dear CopticChris, Actually it is funny, I really cannot remember where I found it. I am actually a big fan of Icon collection and I have some pretty rare ones too. Anyways I hope you liked it. Yours in Christ: Avvaantoni
  • Yes Beshoy it isnt an coptic icon, but it is the closest thing I found to one. I hope you liked it as much as I did. Your brother: Avvaantoni
  • Hello Beshoy, As a matter of fact there is. I have attached it. I hope you like it. Avvaantoni
  • Has anyone seen this icon before? I hope you like it! Keep me in your prayers: Avvaantoni
  • Sorry, just one little question...... How do you upload pictures on to this post? Thank you in advance Avvaantoni

  • Dear Holy Rock, I believe you can find what you are looking for in the following link: http://coptichymns.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloadable&file=index&q=f&f=/Liturgy_Hymns/Congregation_Responses I believ…
  • Dear ServantofJesus, Actually you have found the place. This site provides you with words to hymns written by the users and for the users of this site. Here is the link, but you have to be signed in to access the hymns. http://tasbeha.org/hymn_libr…
  • Dear OstazaCoptic, I understand how you are approaching this, now let me leave you with a little comment that will get you thinking. If everything is preset or predestined for us, let us take your example of college, you said: [quote author=OstazaC…
  • Predestination vs. free will.... a notion that has boggled the minds of people from generation to generation. I am actually taking the blessing of writing an article on this topic so please pray for that. I am sorry but it is not yet complete though…
  • Hello everyone, well although the three holy youth have not been said I just love them. I feel that I relate to them in many aspects. Many people when they ask me who my favorite saint is and I tell them, they get surprised because not many people …
  • Thank you for clarifying it for me, but I just want to clarify something myself. When I said sin is the absence of the Good. Notice I had good with a capital G (refering to God). Sin is turning from God and God has no part in sin, therefore God is n…
  • [quote author=Iqbal link=board=1;threadid=1160;start=0#msg19685 date=1107313636] For example, God cannot sin. Does this limit God? No it does not, the fact God cannot sin, is not due to some external factor, but rather because of the fact He is defi…
  • I agree with the fact that God must be just in His actions, and thus to save us from our sins, He had to become the second Adam. But I do not fully understand what you mean by: [quote author=Iqbal link=board=1;threadid=1160;start=0#msg19683 date=110…
  • Well Iqbal, I think you just answered your question for yourself. It is true how you said that the stairway is the way of suffering because it is definately much more difficult than that of the elevator. Because God is unlimited, He could have give…
  • [quote author=beshoyrm link=board=1;threadid=1164;start=0#msg19643 date=1107280853] why does abouna let the deacons smell the blood , is it to see if there is alcohol or sumthin ? cuz the always say its ok anyway......[/quote] Ok Beshoy, the reaso…
  • Hello Samuelgg, I will try to answer your questions to the best of my ability, and if anyone has a better explaination I wouldn't mind hearing it. Ok your first question: [quote author=samuelgg link=board=4;threadid=1163;start=0#msg19625 date=11072…
  • For sure, Just pray for the success of the project. Avvaantoni
  • Unless I am mistaken, I think we are talking about the same Abouna Anastasi. And yes he is the one from Hawaii. God Bless Avvaantoni
  • Hello Dany, Actually I do have one that you will love. I am just wondering if you know Abouna Anastasi St. Antony. Well he was at my church about a month ago and we happened to record his liturgy. He has an amazing voice and he is a great monk and p…
  • You guys are in luck. As Hos erof mentioned, there is a book written by Fr. Athanasius Eskander, a priest here in Canada, explaining the Holy liturgy. If you read that, that is great, it is a very good book. He also made a video of the liturgy, wher…
  • Dear Copt4life, The eye in an icon has a symbolism, which makes you right. The eye in a coptic icon is usually large and wide. This symbolizes the spiritual eye which looks beyond the material world and looks toward the heavenly kingdom which await…
  • Hello everyone, I was just wondering if any of you have seen an icon for St. Joseph the interpreter of dreams. If not I have it, I just do not know how to upload it. By the way, I have a huge icon collection if anyone would like to see them please …
  • Dear copticchris, Let me start off by saying that doxologies are written by people like you or me to rejoice for the particular saint that he/she have reached their destination. Usually the last line is where we ask them to pray for us in front of …
  • Hello Tentheno, You can find the lyrics in the following link: http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/index.php?a=view&id=56 Please pray for me: Avvaantoni

  • [quote author=sleepymusician link=board=1;threadid=1101;start=15#msg18574 date=1106271087] It wasn't God's will as Bishop Daivd said, it was done through God's permission. God's will is never negative[/quote] I agree with you and Anba David on this…
  • Hello, I do not know if you noticed, but most of the topics are about this horrible accident, I know it is a topic that is very sensative and people that were in constant communication with her would like to be comforted, but can we please keep it …
