yes, if he / she repents and becomes a Christian.for people in remote parts of the world that don't know about Christianity, God judges, and always gives every person a chance to repent.we are not sure exactly what happens with them, but everyone ha…

i met quite a few people who had mixed religion marriages or who lived together without marriage. all of these relationships failed.

may the prayers of the saints and martyrs be with you.God has blessed me with much work related conflict. it is a blessing because you can't obey the commandment to love your enemies if you have no enemies!really you need to pray for your enemies, w…

ok, i agree, mixed Egyptian fava beans it is then!

all these cases are complex, so it is not for us to judge. God will give wisdom to our priests and bishops, so we just need to pray for them. if someone from outside the church gets divorced before becoming a Christian, he or she gets a fresh start …

also none of the trains would run on time and fisikh would become the national dish. yuk!

they thought they could speak greek but when they finished all the Greek words they knew, they wrote the rest in coptic. ;)

they should be allowed to stay hidden so they are not tempted by pride. pride is extremely dangerous. but yes there are those who our Lord gives the gift of miracles and prophecy.

they are not labelled saints untill death, so no!

you can go to liturgy and stay through the whole service. anyone who is not baptised orthodox Christian stays in their place and does not go up to receive Holy Communion (the consecrated bread and wine). that is the same for atheists, hindus, peo…

you are very welcome to visit any orthodox church. try to be not too shy and say hello to someone after the service. if you can, read something from the Bible first, for example the first book in the new testament (2nd part of the Bible) called the…

thanks, mina. one of my favourite quotes about Christians :)

who would want to be the wife of a bishop? you would never see him!not to mention, if you have kids, they would only very rarely see their father.bishops don't really have time for families.
-
remember the woman can be present, just someone else who can take Holy Communion will say the faith responses on behalf of the child. my friend who is a dentist says that she bled for longer after having her daughter than her son, so it made sense t…

we speak english because the forum started in usa and then people from other countries joined in. some people here don't speak arabic as their families are from uk, italy or other african countries. we want all our neighbours to know the love of Go…

to be clear (as it was messed up by the copy and paste), up to 'Judge.' is from abouna tadros' book, and from 'so,' is my commentary on it.

i used it a lot.i don't know how accurate it is, maybe a hymns expert can comment for us.:-)

from 'the first epistle of saint peter' by abouna tadros malaty, translated in usa, p21 - 22: “But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, ‘Be holy, for I am holy.’ And if you call on the Father, wh…

oh dear, i am sorry you got as far as being the girlfriend of a Christian guy before you were honest with each other about your religious beliefs.you say you haven't told him you are an atheist, so you have not been honest with him, and it looks lik…

in romania there are many beautiful old orthodox churches.they nearly all have a few seats around the sides, fixed to the wall, for old people and disabled people and then 80 - 90% people stand during the service.the old people come early to the chu…
