Maybe I should tell the story from the beginning...when her family noticed she was getting weaker they kept cautioning her to take care of her health and stop dieting. Well she didn't listen, it obviously went in one ear and out the other. Then one …

Ya I've actually always wondered the same thing. I must admit that being to Orthodox friends' engagements/weddings and seeing the dancing with loud secular music and drinking etc makes me a bit uncomfortable...and then I start asking myself "well wh…

God be with you and your family bigee. I know it's angering and I'm sure it kills you to see them like this. Please try praying for them. And God will not forget you.

I wish I could help but the only arguments I can think of are religious arguments, and unfortunately those will not be accepted by many people. In some of my psychology classes, sadly as it sounds, we learned that research shows they are actually be…

That's like euthanasia right? Yes I think we are definitely against that!

Thanks Fr. Peter for the clarification :) In the sense you just explained, it sounds like they have no hope, but I don't know...cuz my friend prays and asks me to pray for her grandpa too... The funeral arrangements and all that stuff, I think it's …

No they are not Orthodox, they're Protestant (Baptist i think), but very close to God. They have hope and trust in God, but I guess they have a feeling this is the end...

Hmm that sounds like a great book. Thanks AikotiEnsok for recommending it :) Just a few verses, I'm sure there's more...you can also check biblegateway.com or biblenews.com, they're great. Remember the Lord in the days of your youth before the dif…

"Therefore, let us pursue the things which make for peace and things by which one may edify another." Romans 14:19 "All things are lawful for me, but not all things are helpful; all things are lawful for me, but not all things edify." 1 Corinthians…

Cool I gotta look for that book :D G.J.I, God loves all of us soooo much, even unbelievers. Romans 2:2-16 is about the judgment of God.The Orthodox Study Bible has an article called "the basis of God's judgment" that discusses this passage. It's …

Psychology is great!!! I'm actually graduating this year with an honours degree in that, it's a great program, very practical in real life. God bless you in everything and will choose the best thing for you. There is this amazing psychologist, Dr. M…

Thanks Ioannes! But sorry i have a question...how do I find the audio Bible on Coptic Media Productions?
-
AikotiEnsok i know exactly what you mean, it happens to me all the time. Actually it's normal and happens to all of us!! When I talk to my father of confession about this, he always reminds me that as Christians we are always striving to keep going…

i know how you feel...I have this printed out and keep it on my desk, so whenever I feel down I just look at it. I hope you find it as comforting and encouraging as I do :). God bless you

my apologies again for the length...got carried away lol
-
Wow that was long...sorry ;). (I have all these saved in my email, so it's easy to just copy/paste the whole thing!). I also have some favourites from the Old Testament: "Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the L…
-
I have waaaaaay too many favourites, but I like a lot of the ones already mentioned. I also love the book of Philippians, especially chapter 4, it has the most inspiring verses ever! "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!" Philip…

Hi Jesus_the only way, I think you should talk to your mom about this. The reason I mentioned your mom first is because as females she would understand you more and give you useful advice. (Just from experience, moms are great for that kind of advi…

God bless you Ioannes. Make sure you share your book with us when you're done :)

God be with her and bless you and everyone who cares for her. Rabena ma3akom

Ya abounas are compassionate, they understand we're all humans and have weaknesses. I always thought my FOC would get bored of hearing me say the same sin every month, but he was always gentle and gave me spiritual excercises to help me overcome it.…

My favourite name is (and has always been) Joseph. It's because my favourite story in the Bible is that of Joseph. It always inspires me because he went through so much and yet endured, with God's strength of course. I love how he said "As for you, …

[quote author=copticcross3 link=topic=7440.msg98682#msg98682 date=1229906590] since we're on this topic... i was just wondering why no one names their kid Jesus ? i mean, he Is the best of all... is it considered "disrespectful" or something? cuz, i…

Anything done for the glory of God is good, as long as it is done with love.

My father of confession once told me that one way to avoid pride and try to gain humility is by constantly reminding ourselves that we are NOTHING WITHOUT God. That way we realize that we should not have pride in ourselves or rely on our on abilitie…
-
I agree with Godislove, pray for your mom and others and keep doing what you're doing now. Also pray that God strengthen you to continue in His way. Also by our actions we can touch the people around them and God can change their hearts. I sincerely…
