sorry, auto correct error, i mean glorify God

sorry, i understood 'why does God care' to mean 'what is the big deal'. these answers are good. sex was created as a beautiful way to seal a life long relationship which should be a picture of the relationship between God and His church. so it shou…

yeah, who cares how many ppl sleep with yr sister, no big deal, eh? :-O what!!

looks interesting, but like the website recommended by mrpete33 (https://alexandrianorthodoxy.wordpress.com/)it has no information about the author. it would be like me (a non engineer) writing a website about hydroelectric power in china. i know no…

probably posts here, maybe he / she will admit who it is ;) seems interesting, but anonymous...

lovely sermon quote in great modern english translation. think I will download it later. saint gregory is my new best friend :) also great Bible quotes -as we are all 'slaves' of God, the 'free' person is reminded the he or she has the same humble s…

It is a very old source, really old English. The one on saint takla dot org is better, but still uses archaic (out of date words). Probably the coptic is good, but my coptic is not good enough to appreciate it!

may God kick you into action... ;)

this is a good question for yr confession father. different things make different ppl cry, so there is no single answer that fits all ppl. start by praying and reading the Bible (eg the daily readings) and pray psalm 50 (51) every day and think abou…

it was the church and the oral tradition that gave the authority.

yes, keep looking, don't give up.it is good to ask questions:)

i joined as the only orthodox Christian in my family, you are v welcome :)

dear friend, i am sad to see you did not confess in childhood. in our orthodox church, this is normal. i have seen 7 year old children talking to a protestant enquirer in my church about confession and they explained it nicely. once you have left it…

this story is grossly inaccurate.

you don't need to date anyone. if you think you are ready for marriage, ask God 2 guide you, then make friends with women and with men (they all have cousins or female friends). treat your female friends like your sisters, in all purity, and learn a…

yes, we only do a 'great entrance' at the time of feasts, when the bread and wine enter the church in procession.i think there are very many similarities between eastern and oriental orthodox churches, but it is not always obvious how they correspon…

yes, adam blamed God as well.italian coptic, would you like to tell us more about how your wife lead you to the faith?i think it would be useful for jathniel as well as the rest of us.11 years is a long time, could she maybe send me a personal messa…

26 nov equals 17 hator. this is equivalent to 13 nov on the 'new' roman calendar. he is one of my favourites :)

'te' or 'ti' is the feminine word for 'the'. 'pi' or 'bi' or 'b' or 'ba' (depending on how you transliterate it) is the masculine word for 'the'.eg. piChristos = (the) Christ.try this:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6JlNTGDSStQ&list=PLEEBD2A6EA7…

https://m.youtube.com/watch?list=PLF7AD87A732FB31D3&v=uFRgADT9w6w this is about the middle of the course, you should find links to the other lessons. i found just doing lessons 1 to 10 were enough for getting a basic understanding of coptic hymn…

correct advice. also note that you are following the 1st man when you blame 'eve'. best just 2 confess u are wrong, we all sin sometimes.

oops, just enjoyed my kusheri a bit too much!;) and i do love falafel more than steak, but am missing my tea with milk! i agree we all also need to pray more and focus on being kind to others, as our Lord has been very kind to us.:)
