  • Impressive and very well explained; thank you, gmankbadi and John_S2000, both!
  • Two points: 1) Take your time as much as you want to post the reasons to believe the historical reliability for the Divinity of Christ. 2) I think there was a little bit misunderstanding concerning Book of Enoch. What I was trying to say: if one …
  • You know, ‘why’, if you think of it pragmatically it is almost an impossible task, reporting every wrong doing/sin to an appropriate bodies or doing something about it, to accomplish in the surrounding we live in. That is just how I see it, but it s…
  • Well, One more point, it just occured to me: I am aware of the fact that the existence of God is also claimed by Christianity as well as others. There fore, proving the existence of God will not make Chrisianity any better than other religions. At a…
  • hmmmm...very interesting. Before I comment on it one by one, I would like to inquire more questions and make general assessment on your post: 1) I did not request verification for the existence of God rather evidences which substantiates the clai…
  • Prayer is a great weapon, a rich treasure, a wealth that is never exhausted, an undisturbed refuge, a cause of tranquillity, the root of a multitude of blessings and their source. -St. John Chrysostom
  • Thanks for the reply Marmar!, but I think faith is not really an evidence, do not you think?
  • There is ample historical, existential, cosmological, anthropological and spiritual evidence for the Christian faith. Dear gmankbadi, If you will? can you share with us what you consider are the key evidences; archeological, anthropological, sociolo…
  • Well, I guess I have SO MUCH TO LEARN, and VERY ELONGATED WAY TO GO. Anyhow, thank you much Iqbal; that was enlightening.
  • Good point Of All Nations, that was basically my driving force for arguing against it: who am I, one who did horrible sins in the past and still is, to report cheating?; in addition to the guilt which will come with it after doing so, reporting it. …
  • Yes, that does clarify it, thanks gmankbadi . And GBU too!
  • I have to admit, I did to the contrary on more than a few occasions. Anyhow, lesson learned, thanks.
  • Christ4Life was talking about the following verse St. Paul says: For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ. Galatians 1:10 Do you think by notifying the action o…
  • Christ4life, If one was to do what people "liked", than every single Christian would never do any good! Can you tell me what is good about reporting this, whether be it to a teacher or somebody else?
  • Iqbal, I would like to make four points: First, I concur that one should respect the rule of God. But can you back up with evidence that, students in the US have legal obligation to report when they witness students commit deceitful actions. Unless…
  • To begin with I agree with Of All Nations comment that one needs to pray about it if s/he finds him/her self in that kind of situation. Other than that I did not see any sound argument which was able to amend my mind so far. I agree with socoolb…
  • If I were you, I would probably disregard it and focus on my work. But if I believe I have to say something about it I would chat with the individual, who did such an act, in private after the test; that is just what I think so feel free to ignore i…
  • Hey guys do not be anxious and nervous. What is expected from you is do your best, and leave the rest for God. He will take care of it for you. And certainly you are in my prayer. Good luck!
  • I did not mean to make anybody feel bad, at least intentionally. So I am sorry if I did!
  • I just read it, excellent points 'joyisgod'!
  • Is it wrong to be angry at God for not getting an expected grade? I think it is! My brotherly advice is this: First try to make an effort to re-examine your studying method if there were any defects to it and strive to improve it next time so that y…
  • "....REV 5:8 it says "Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints."..." I guess that wil…

  • Thanks much for the reply. I think that do clarify it better. If something pops up in my head I will post it later on. Btw do you know anywhere in the bible where it mentions asking be it dead saints or prophets for their intercession? I think if …

  • Thanks for the reply CrazyCopt but I am still a little bit confused. What is the difference between asking like a saint who passed away/is dead for his/her intercession and talking to a dead spirit?

  • "..."There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who practices witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiri…

  • I love it CopticChica21, thanks! Here is another one: The Interview with God
  • [quote author=a_deacon link=board=1;threadid=3452;start=0#msg50277 date=1142728411] And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. Genesis 6:3 [/quote] I …
  • Of course that happened because God said/allowed it to be so. That whole process is just the possible scenarios of how such an occurrence took place in a way we can comprehend, I think, but could be wrong though. Concerning people who live more tha…
  • The Vela supernova (a massive stellar explosion that occurred early in the human era) has been identified as the possible culprit. It seems this event may be at least partly responsible for the cosmic radiation that keeps people from living longer t…
  • OMG! I love it!!, thanks for sharing Coptic Servent!
