hi father peter, now you have counts, can you fix the stars for ilovesaintmark?! ;)
-
yes, u need to ask a priest or spiritual advisor who knows you. i am older than dzheremi and younger than father peter. but i was speaking to a young (20s) single coptic friend of mine and she said sometimes there is a problem that if people see eac…

'don't buy a used car'? :o i first bought a car > 10 years ago, but have never afforded a new one! r u guys crazily rich or something?! cars lose 1/4 their value in the first 2-3 years, they are not good value for money. ask God to be sure u re…

i am mabsoota (happy) coz God loves me. i thought it was a cool user name! He loves u too and has a plan for your life. just be willing to give everything for the one who gave so much for you. :)

may God help you. start by reading even one verse of the Bible every day and praying 'our Father' and try to read more each day to get back on track. i remember going to confession once, i didn't know why the previous weeks had been so difficult, i …

in case there are any new-comers here, these guys are NOT serious! do not try this at home!! confess, using words, to a physically-present priest! ;)

but maybe don't take the website too seriously, this is what it recommended to me: 1. Sports Coaching - 75% 2. Development - 75% 3. Instructing Exercise - 69% 4. Playwork - 63% 5. Teaching - 63% ha ha ha, i had to train 6 months to do a 9 mile spo…

not enough details to comment. if you only talk on the phone, it's not dating.

this is a newspaper that most british people consider to be as accurate as a mid-morning celebrity talk show. most people don't take it seriously.
-
aah, this is the one from the 'great entrance', when the Body and Blood of our Lord process in on feast days, is that right? it's the same words as the one from Holy week. funny how to european ears this one sounds like a sadder tune and the one fr…

we copts value theology and education very much, actually. i will leave further discussion to p.m. as i feel we have strayed off topic a little... :)
-
ok, so i mean everyone has a chance to respond. i like to be called 'coptic friend'! will write more when i also have a theology degree... ha ha ;)
-
it seems to me there are about 100 hymns called epouro, can anyone give us a link to the words and tune of the one people mean when they say 'the hymn epouro'? i know only the one from Holy week and the one which is my ring tone, and they are comple…

titL, those 40 and 50 year old guys think they are young. it's something that happens as you get older... ;)
-
hmm, does that mean we should call the priest's wife tensoni?!
-
when i was in school, i got a D in physics (like about 40%, a clear fail!). then i worked really hard, made recordings of my text books and exercise books, and listened to them in the evenings, and just kept reading and listening to my work (giving …

this is a balanced reply, however i think God calls everyone.
-
isn't 'voice of copts' that organisation which has very little to do with the coptic church but is quite active politically? i don't think we should be too concerned.
-
is ok, we just wondered where you were! please also take time to sleep occasionally... i think maybe you already gave that advice to some other people! ;) God bless u :)

this was also mentioned here: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,10593.0.html may God have mercy and comfort those who suffer, our dear brothers and sisters.

i would like to ask people not to use the term 'sub-Christianity' for protestant belief. it's a bit harsh when many of them are very sincere.
-
just be cool. not rude, but too 'busy' to hang out with her. there are some great Bible verses in this thread; get busy with studying the Bible and praying and attending mass and listening to sermons. make friends with some geeky guy at church that …
-
good questions. a good start is to preface each answer with 'according to Mr... in the book...., Christianity is...' this means you just quote him without agreeing with him, and you will pass the exam without sin. if you need to go deeper and debat…

to answer my own post (!) i just saw this: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,10625.0/topicseen.html
-
so if pi-ouro means the king, what does epouro mean?
-
in short, no, not yet. which is a good thing. you need to hang out with other people in a group and get to know each other, then get to know each other's families (or best friends if your families are distant or don't attend church etc.) then talk a…
-
actually, in the uk at least, there are not many orthodox churches outside of big cities, so maybe someone wants to be orthodox and has been reading a lot of byzantine history and may have met orthodox friends on holiday in russia, but the nearest E…

great summary of what i was thinking, u said it much better than me! ;)
-
hey, this is at my level, thanks! ;)

may God guide you. remember He never wants you to do everything at once. take it one step at a time. He plans for you a future and a hope (in Jesus), as in jeremiah 29 verse 11. :)
