  • [quote author=Orthodox11 link=board=11;threadid=4118;start=0#msg57580 date=1152715331] [quote author=Believer in God link=board=11;threadid=4118;start=0#msg57518 date=1152583964] OK, Lets shorten the search the Copts in general. [/quote] From what …
  • OK, Lets shorten the search the Copts in general.
  • I really love this topic and I strongly thank egydave for posting this topic. It was strongly suggested to me, by a very reliable source, that Salvation in the Orthodox Concept should be read in attemting to clarify eternal salvation and eternal li…
  • Dear twoshenoudas, The picture which depicts Saint George (Mari Girguis) slaying the dragon was to depict the part of his life when he killed the dragon. This part of his life is more of a legend. We don't really know if he did kill a dragon but …
  • I recieved this article which states the view of our Church on this issue. It does not fit on the attachments folder so I please allow me to just paste it onto this reply: In his own words: Judas the betrayer was really Judas the chosen one Gosp…
  • If you think that it is really serious then you should attempt to let your parents becpme friends with your friends parents, so they know how her parents are really like. Then they would be able to take proper action concerning this matter if you a…
  • I would suppose that it would be very difficult to explain when you are truly in love. True love is usually based on feelings and feelings are very difficult to explain. I suppose your heart will tell you when you are truly in love. You may feel …
  • I agree with this last quote, as it is, of course true, but then the question is, how do you know if they are sent from the Most High or not, as the quote says, " 6 If they be not sent from the most High in thy visitation, set not thy heart upon the…
  • I know that you may have a strong feeling for this issue, especially if somone close to you is suffering and the effects of the research can change all of that. One who truly has strong faith in God and knows that all things which happen are in the…
  • I am not really fond of the "what if" questions because no body worries about the "what ifs," if they will never happen. I will bear with you for this example, although, and say that I would agree with what the church agrees with, in this situation…
  • [quote author=Marianne87 link=board=11;threadid=3339;start=0#msg48976 date=1141003919] Well...I believe that everything is coming from God, if God didn't want that to work, He would have never made it possible for the cure of animals which triggerd …
  • I am not sure if you all know what embryonic stem cell research is. As was stated before, our church is strictly against this. What happens in embryonic stem cell research is that the egg is fertilized, meaning that it begins its process to become…
  • The Orthodox Creed would be a great primary resource. Please pray for me always, Believer in God
  • I think that Aaint Athanasius took a fairly big stand in history. If it wasn't for him the church would have been full of heretic ideas, God forbid. Really, everybody of the church took a big stand in history. If you study each of their lives ind…
  • I think that many people over exaggerate about marriage. Some may say it sarcastically, so make sure tht this isn't the case. Others sincerely mean it. If one gets maried for true love, then that couple will not complain about their struggles bec…
  • I have heard of the name Sigmund Freud before and how he made major contributions in the field of psychology. I am not, although really familiar with all which he contributed to the world of psychology, maybe you may a little bit more input, if you…
  • Actually, sometimes some people understand the visions, or dreams, of God. This is, of course, because God gave them this ability, according to His will. For example, Isaiah the prophet and Joseph, in the Old Testament, were able to interpret drea…
  • Would God ever reveal to you whether you are one of the elect or not? Please pray for me always, Believer in God
  • That would be great, Jesuskingofkings, if you could do that. I am definitely interested in this matter! Please pray for me always, Believer in God
  • I was wondering if you are 100% sure of that statement sandrahanna. If so, what was your source or method of coming about that conclusion? I am not wuestioning if it is true or not, don't get me wrong, but I guess I am interested because in anothe…
  • I definitely think that the best thing to do in this situation is to talk to your father of confession. Your father of confession is definitely wiser than I am and can probably guide you better than I could. About you staing that it might harm her…
  • I definitely think that you should pray, talk to your father of confession, kaza...kaza...kaza... all you can spiritually to combat such a situation. You should also train yourself to combat such situations. I mean, when you feel the strength to …
  • I think that to try to confess about sins to other people, other than your father of confession, is like trying to run away from God. Like Jonah, for instance, when he tried to run away from preaching to Nineveh. That was an attempt to hide away f…
  • MarMar91, you should definitely tell your father of confession about your dreams, as you have suggested. God is the only one who knows you better then youself and through the power of the Holy Spirit your father of confession can perhaps tell you t…
  • I am by no means a dream interpreter because I can not even interpret my own dreams. I was thinking that perhaps that dream might have been a sign of God trying to explain to you what the meaning of true love is and what true love can do to a perso…
  • I think that these verses in the Holy Bible clarify that the moon will turn into blood. Joe 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the MOON into BLOOD, before the great and the terrible day of the LORD come. Ac 2:20 The sun shall be turne…
  • What MarMar91 is asking is exactly what I want to know. Please pray for me always, Believer in God
  • How do you know that the end of the world will not end before the sun explodes? These types of scientific statements I consider to be inaccurate. This is because these scientific theories are just esimates and are not necessarily the truth. What …
  • The truth is that no body knows the exact day which the end of the world will be. There are signs that the Lord told us to look out for, but those who say that they know the exact date speak falsely. There have been things, such as the Bible code,…
  • I am sorry for my ignorance to this fact, Iqbal. I deleted my post to try to destroy any confusion and miscommunication that I may have caused. I did not want to form any heresies concerning the teaching of the Church. Forgive me for I am a sinne…
