  • Well put by Unworthy... At the end of the day, its your decision whether you fast or not.. know one thing though, your not doing God any favors by fasting, it really doesnt affect him, fasting is something we do for ourselves to get closer to God.…
  • Thanks JG and dzheremi, the problem is that no one wants to help me lol. Its a pretty small class, with the majority of people in there being indian or chinese, and they all have there own groups or friends. I do know one guy who is very helpful, bu…
  • Please pray that God have mercy on me and forgive my sins, also for help in my uni studies
  • [quote author=jfarag92 link=topic=10823.msg131689#msg131689 date=1298786209] Oh Ionnes, you will love these [/quote] That really hurts, I cant stand hearing people insult the church of God because of their ignorance of scripture and history and t…
  • Your on a Coptic Forum so were all going to say go to a Coptic Orthodox Church lol. I Don't live in the U.S but I know there are a lot of Coptic Churches there, i'm sure you can find them around where ever you go. Talk to people from the Coptic Chur…
  • I don't understand what this issue is about personal prayer during the Liturgy. Personal prayer can be and should be every single day of your life, how can you complain about there being not enough personal prayer time during the 3 hours a week of l…
  • I dont know if I would say the Jews worship a different God, but I would say that the Jews simply failed to realize there God when they saw him. The Jews worship the same God as their prophets David, Isaac, Abraham.. those prophets worship our Lord …
  • [quote author=Cyril97 link=topic=10342.msg127301#msg127301 date=1295368025] In the same way you have a spirit, a mind, and a body, (three different things) iy makes you as a being. The trinity is the same you have the father, the son and the holy sp…
  • I guess we wont know for sure till we get there... either way, we should always be ready at anytime to willingly give ourself for Jesus' sake, since he didnt hesitate to give himself for our sake.
  • [quote author=dzheremi link=topic=10483.msg127345#msg127345 date=1295411635] The question that your scenario prompts, Meena, is: Are they really being turned onto Christianity if they are rented this space and allowed to do whatever they want in it?…
  • I thought if you died WILLINGLY for the name of Jesus you were considered a martyr. WHat if you really didnt want to die in the name of Jesus but they killed you anyway because u were christian? I dont think the same crown is given to a person who d…
  • [quote author=dzheremi link=topic=10483.msg127342#msg127342 date=1295408142] Wait a minute...I thought this question was asked in the context of what happened in the UK with the bed & breakfast, not an apartment/house renting situation? I think …
  • I would also prefer to rent out my apartment to Christians, thats just my preference. But we have to remember, these people, whether gay or straight, sinners or righteous, are still our brothers. They are our brother looking for a place to live, if …
  • Great answers guys.. thanks alot
  • [quote author=Abanoub. link=topic=10473.msg127190#msg127190 date=1295234333] I think the death sentence is not harsh enough, they should lock up the guy in a maximum security prison for life and take really good care of him so he can live until he's…
  • Guys I appreciate your answers, but that wasnt my question. My question was that the angel told him to go to Israel but didnt specify nazareth, this is something Joseph did on his own, why wouldnt the angel just tell him to go there from the beginin…
  • If Jesus went as far as to say "whoever LOOKS at a woman and lusts after her has committed adultery in his heart", how much worse is it to actually masturbate. It is a sin, I don't care who says its not. The sexual desires are normal, but when they …
  • [quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9898.msg121250#msg121250 date=1287969047] The Sacramental sequence for the Apostles was not the same as for us. For example, they received Baptism and the Holy Eucharist, and later on they received the Holy S…
  • No, but that not my point. I know that when we take communion in the Church it is the REAL body and blood. What I want to know is whether it was the REAL body and blood at the last supper which was BEFORE Jesus even died. Likewise, another question …
  • [quote author=minagir link=topic=9898.msg121232#msg121232 date=1287960103] [quote author=Meena_Ameen link=topic=9898.msg121229#msg121229 date=1287954446] Was the bread an wine Jesus gave at the last supper really the true Body and Blood? I know the …
  • you are right anba bola, and I did also mention this earlier when St John Chrysostome was brought up, I said this is something the church can disagree on. Its not a doctrine that has to do with salvation such as the divinity of Christ. Personally I …
  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120923#msg120923 date=1287358508] Meena, calm down for a second. I did watch that debate many times before, these are opinions or views and while I respect Hugh Ross and his views, I dont agree with them at a…
  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120915#msg120915 date=1287353126] Their interpretation of an expanding universe is the big bang, thats NOT my opinion its theirs. It is clear that you are trying to reconcile erroneous "scientific" beliefs wi…
  • There is actually an Abouna named abouna Pishoy i think that is coming to my church this friday who will be giving a lecture on the Big Bang theory. I am really excited to here his response, and will be sure to let everyone on this site here what he…
  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120892#msg120892 date=1287287525] Michael Heiser, who is a Greek, Hebrew, and many other languages, scholar has a much better take on the Genesis account. Keep in mind, nobody ever questioned the literal 7 da…
  • also, here is a video on the scripture of Genesis one in Hebrew and what the "days" in genesis mean...
  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120887#msg120887 date=1287283645] Here is the link http://www.pitt.edu/~jhs/articles/morph_paleo_neander.pdf This is their personal theory based on evolutionary thought. African-American, and most west afric…
  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120880#msg120880 date=1287277289] Meena, I have actually watched that debate. What I asked for was your evidence of what you said of Neanderthals, as I have never heard that before, so why did you give me the…
  • Let me ask again. If you were creating a mature Oak tree how old would it look? And how old would it be? If it were created as a mature tree what laws of nature would be broken? And in what way in any case is God bound by anything? No laws of nature…
  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9851.msg120807#msg120807 date=1287161444] The big bang lol. Not only did matter just self exist, but the space it existed in had to come into existence of its own accord before matter did the same. Then when the big …
