[quote author=Tishori link=topic=9143.msg113655#msg113655 date=1271899315] Starting from the Garden of Gethsemane the night before, Christ started feeling the agony he would face of taking on the sin of all the world. All who had ever existed and al…

[quote author=Aegyptian link=topic=9138.msg113631#msg113631 date=1271854416] Oh ok my bad, misunderstood your question. However, I don't think the CoC has any suggestion for what to vote (but maybe someone else can tell you otherwise). Especially n…

Finally, I'd like to use the Bible (scripture) to highlight this huge problem we have. Fr. Peter at least asked us to quote from Patristics or from the Bible as far as possible: Most people, whether they believe in God or not, generally accept the…

Gosh Jydeacon, I am amazed to see that someone else was concerned about parent's wanting to be "cool" in front of their kids like me. This is a huge issue. Parents try their best to show their kids that they are open minded, and in doing so negle…

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9135.msg113595#msg113595 date=1271793878] My Dear Zoxsasi, The priests are not blind, but their hands are tied. Have you ever seen a parent admonishing the priest for the sway and loss of their child? They …

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9135.msg113592#msg113592 date=1271789268] The Coptic Church parishes are being passive about a lot of things--relative to observation. They feel they might offend the youth and they will leave the Church as a …

[quote author=omelnour link=topic=9135.msg113584#msg113584 date=1271778007] I've had a lot of conversations with the youth in my church: the preteens, young adults, and even older youth who are in their 20's and 30's....they all have a common issue.…

Why did Christ choose bread? Not only because it is written in the 4 Gospels, but also because of many reasons: There are many reasons, but one reason I particularly like is this: To make bread: you need flour: The congregation used to give f…

Thanks Fr. Peter for your post. (I just found it now for some reason).

wait a sec, the best way to prepare for confession is to read the Bible: in particular, read Matthew chapter 5. So, pray before reading the Bible. Ask God to open your eyes as to what you need to confess about. Then read Matthew Chapter 5.0 (all…

I don't think my priests have ever allowed me to pray in Church. I think once I tried that, and they told me to be quiet because i was making too much noise (during the tasbeha). I cannot believe the amount of disrespect some priests have for the t…

[quote author=Hizz_chiilld link=topic=9098.msg113109#msg113109 date=1270997645] From what I know, the church does not accept the theory that humans descended from apes, though there is some convincing evidence on the matter.. In Genesis 2:7 it stat…

[quote author=epchois_nai_nan link=topic=9095.msg113097#msg113097 date=1270960518] It's best not to put too much stock into traditions like these unless they can be backed up by independent evidence. Jesus opening His eyes after having died creates …

The tasbeha is very important, and it should be given its time. I'm thankful as this year we did all the hymns for Bright Saturday. Obviously something had to give, and what paid the price for our indulgence in praise was the story of Suzanna that n…

I met this non denominational, evangelical christian once whilst in the street sometime ago. He came up to me and he started to talk to me about God. I told him :"Its ok... I'm a Christian". He said "Oh. But are you saved!?". I said "Sure. If I re…

As fr. Peter said, we should not generalise, but Axum, you hit the nail on the head. A lot of them have a mandate to openly disrespect Catholicism or Orthodoxy under the premise that we are institutions. They strongly believe that an institute doesn…
