And another few verses that relate: 1 Peter Ch. 3 13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance [regulation] of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme: 14 or unto the governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the puni…

Here was the verse I was looking for before: Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword (Mat. 26:52).

lol. I don't know about that Wasim. We're closing in on 14 pages on that "GUYS" thread. lol - Chris

lol. It's not you sleepy. We started going a little off topic many posts ago. It's ok, we'll get back on track now. Sorry if it sounded like I was referring to you. - Chris

Our prayers are with Brian and your friend, Mike. But I have just one question concerning what happened with Brian O'Connor. Isn't there a International Human Rights Agreement that prohibits cruel and unusual punishment? I remember also reading abou…

High Five For YOU!!! Great way of putting it! ;D

It's Tyson. Ali is pretty much a vegetable. Guys, don't you think were perhaps straying just a bit off topic? - Chris

I couldn't find one on tasbeha.org, but if you check this site out: http://www.stmarystlouis.bizland.com/new_page_6.htm They have different verses of the cymbals for most of our Church's occasions; most are performed by Ibrahim Ayad and they are a…

Ali called himself the greatest, and ended up with Parkenses because of it. Actually, I think this relates to "sinful" sports. If one becomes good at a sport, and this leads one to boast about one's abilities, they're glorifying themselves, not Go…

DimYana, Feel free to upload that picture to "A Breathtaking Miracle" here: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=166 Concerning the crying of the Virgin, I've always been told it's because she's …

What? What did I say? Isn't this the death penalty topic?

Since sleepy and Mike both brought up drugs, I have just this to quickly say. How would drug restraint laws be enforced without a fear of jail time? It is that fear that make most think twice before doing drugs in the first place. Of course, not …

lol. We can always count on NorthernCross to be blunt! :D I'm just kidding around NC. You add some spice to this website, lol. Back to the exciting topic of cheerleading though... God Bless, - Chris

o0o0o...I like that idea CS. Very very good. We can try that next time. Great Idea!!!! :) - Chris

Matt/Tito, Really? Please elaborate. We would all love to hear it. - Chris

lol Mark. An interesting perspective. Believe it or not, there is a female, although most say she is in fact a man in disguise lol, who is on my school's wrestling team (which of course is all guys). When someone asked her why she joined, she said, …

Yea, I thought that was it. But for those who don't know the story: Abanoub was only twelve years old when he was martyred by the Roman ruler. On July 31 of each year, the Church celebrates his death, as the day of his birth into eternal life. Aban…

El-Nehessy (Nehisa) is the city where St. Abanoub is from. Do you know St. Abanoub's story? I'll post it anyway.

Mathitis, Speaking of St. Christopher the Christ-Bearer, did you hear that the Catholics, who at one time venerated him as a saint, no longer do? I don't remember why, but this was very recent. It makes me sad to know that a saint can be a s…

I've thought long and hard about this and this is what I came up with (in no specific order of course): St. Abanoub El-Nehessey St. Mina the Wonder Worker Amba Abraam, Bishop of Fayoum (the patron saint of my church) St. Paul the Apostle St. John t…

Hmm. This is a tough, good question. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with sports. They are just for entertainment and competition. Even boxing. I know you're beating the living day lights out of each other, but it's not because you hate your …

NorthernCross, The word "Apostle", from the Greek apostello "to send forth", "to dispatch", has etymologically a very general sense. Apostolos (Apostle) means one who is sent forth, dispatched--in other words, who is entrusted with a mission, rat…

Vorlbronx, I found this site, but just as the Coptic Scrolls of Nag Hammadi, and the "Lost Gospels" are controversial, I don't know of the validity of these writings. http://www.newadvent.org/fathers/ -Chris

Wasim, When I was typing that, I didn't understand it either. It's right from that site I referenced. I don't know why they said that, but I think it's best if I take it off now because, after all, Christ had no siblings in the sense we know. B…

This is related by Bishop (the seventieth) Dorotheus of Tyre who was one of the seventy and also a pious martyr in the reign of Emperors Licinius and Constantine. He wrote on various subjects in Greek and Latin and after the deaths of Diocletian and…

Volbrlorx, The 12 chosen by Jesus were his disciples. St. Mark was just one of the 70 apostles also chosen. So the 12 and their fates were: 1. Andrew - crucified 2. Bartholomew - beaten then crucified 3. James, son of Alphaeus - stoned to …
