I did hear a question and answer session from Baba Shenouda III, where a person asked him about this same topic. (I think somebody just mentioned this in the thread). What he said, is that it is not wrong to marry a person who is related to you, su…

MarMar 91, I have realized that you are the one who started this thread. Was your question answered and did it satisfy you? Did you ask a father of confession or another spiritual leader? Did God provide you with the answer? How did you solve th…

I guess you're right, MarMar91. I do agree that what happened to Bob was infortunate. I guess with that example I didn't mean love but I meant lust. Wouldn't you think that by Bo having that dream, it would lead him to get impatient and force him…

Hi tu es Petrus, and welcome to Tasbeha. If I am not mistaken your username in latin is, "You are Peter". Please forgive me for putting words in the mouths of my fellow brethren, but I do not think that they meant what they said, to the extent tha…

I think that it definitely depends on what music you listen to. Some non-christian music is just simply inappropriate or it talks about so much despairing topics and topics that are against our faith. Anba Sorial, suring one of the midwest convent…

[quote author=MarMar91 link=board=1;threadid=537;start=45#msg45479 date=1136867536] so anyways, what do u think about that kind of a dream? [/quote] That was a fairly interesting dream, I must say. I guess that maybe, since it made you happy…

Oh sorry, my misunderstanding. Please forgive me for my insolence.

Can you tell me more specifically what your dream was about? If not, then I respect your decision. May that dream which made you happy continually bless you and bring you closer to God. Please pray for me always, Believer in God

I am not sure if I understand what you mean, soo sorry MarMar91. It is all my fault because my mind can not think for itself. I think you mean to say that you feel relieved, like in your last example I thought you meant to say that you feel relief…

[quote author=mikeforjesus link=board=1;threadid=3011;start=0#msg45385 date=1136701256] thankyou for your reply... but can you please explain to me more about how you can also I think be defeated by vain glory by your silence ... Is it bad not to…

Thank you MarMar 91 soooo soooooo much for bringing this up again. I know that this is a very touchy situation and that was why I wanted more elaboration on it and what you have said was very insightful. When referring to the last thing about what…

I heard of this story where a mother was on a boat emigrating to another land and she thought that maybe her children, who were not baptized, would not survive. Therefore, she cut her breast and anointed them with her blood. They survived the trip…

Wow! These are definitely tough passages to decipher. Nice choices mikeforJesus. forgive me if my insight to these passages are inaccurate but I will try my best. The first passage seems to tell you that one should not attempt to "show off" in f…

The Anglican church is the church of England, if any has heard it being used in this term. The Anglican church was established by, I think, Henry VI, who was the king of England. Of course, many English followed their king and became Anglican also…

You should always pursue a Christian-like conduct. I would doubt, although that there would be that much bad music, it is, of course, a wedding. May God be with you in everything you do. Please pray for me always, Believer in God

I don't think that it is a sin to enjoy food, please forgive me and correct me if I am wrong. I think that instead, the church teaches us to be thankful and enjoy all of the food we get, because the Lord has brought it to us. The poor people enjoy…

I definitely liked this piece. Thank you very much for these insightful words. I guess it does teach a very important lesson which we should all learn. It teaches how we should not complain about the afflictions which we encounter because God is …

I, personally would not see why that type of relationship would not work. Forgive me for I am not as knowlegable about this issue as many of you might be. Many say that opposites do attract though, so I see the point of view which Angel from Heave…

I think I understand what mikeforjesus is saying. My response to this question is that there are instances when the devil attempts to make someone see something as good, although it leads to something evil. It is an example of when the devil atte…

I am not sure whether our church recommends arranged marriages or not but if I had to take a guess I would probably say that our church probably does not recommend it. My reasoning to this is because some times arranged marriages work and sometimes…

I would not say that your soul mate is completely opposity from you. If you mean completely opposite then you would mean that one of the couple is good and the other evil. I think that being good or evil is part of one's personality traits. I thi…

I personally also thought that it was a symbolic meaning.
