  • [quote author=servant33 link=topic=9491.msg148480#msg148480 date=1323115762] [quote author=Stavro link=topic=9491.msg148474#msg148474 date=1323111177] The truth about heretics is: They are heretics. Telling them they are heretics saves their souls. …

  • [quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=12643.msg148457#msg148457 date=1323104739] I promise not to turn this into a bitter debate but I'm going to be the voice of a different view. There is no such thing as "break from service". Did the Jesus, the Suff…
  • Please allow me to ask you all another question and benefit from your wisdom. If my FoC permits me to take some time off from serving in Sunday School, should I tell my fellow servants the reason I will not be with them? What should I say? I don't…
  • [quote author=minatasgeel link=topic=12643.msg148430#msg148430 date=1323045528] I think that it would be a good idea to get a break of that specific service (with a reason to not alarm others) but not pf service in general. This is just a temptation…
  • [quote author=Servant of Jesus Christ link=topic=12643.msg148429#msg148429 date=1323045450] Hello brother! Good evening I hope you have many more in Christ! I seen an extremely helpful quote at the Ottawa Church that I go to. It says, "it is better …
  • [quote author=ReturnOrthodoxy link=topic=12643.msg148425#msg148425 date=1323042337] Good, finally a question which i do not see as having the prospect of turning into a bitter debate. It is in my opinion that taking a break from service for your o…
  • [quote author=peter_saad link=topic=12643.msg148423#msg148423 date=1323041569] I'm in the same boat. People always say to respect the decision of the elders, and I agree with that. But when it comes to church, I feel no one is too old for correction…
  • [quote author=John_S2000 link=topic=12596.msg148401#msg148401 date=1322949287] A correction: MB = Muslim brothers (i.e. NOT brotherhood) pls spread. Ironically, lately the US sent the gift of another 50 millions US$ to the MB to support their demo-…
  • Well done, Ioannes!
  • Great explanation. I was just a bit confused because I always heard that verse interpreted as St. Paul's struggle with sin, not doing good works. In any case, my misunderstanding rests in the fact that there surely are some who have no discomfor…
  • So, Mina = abahoor?
  • Yeah a track list would be great. BTW, the video has a typo at the 3 minute mark. . ."proffessionally". . just one too many "f's" Looks like a great production though!

  • This is an interesting question, Peter. I can't decide!
  • [quote author=caji link=topic=12624.msg148237#msg148237 date=1322700793] You have all failed to mention that Pope Shenouda rides in his private jet virtually anywhere. I think that in itself is a great service to the Coptic community. [/quote] I'm …
  • [quote author=ReturnOrthodoxy link=topic=12624.msg148196#msg148196 date=1322675913] The first bit of this video makes me a little more restless. His view of the Quran as being, "like the Bible" and that the problem is the Sharia rather than the Qura…
  • Well after listening to the first few minutes of that interview, I wasn't too amused. I don't know much about him but based on his rhetoric it seems that he is not a faithful Orthodox but is concerned more about the worldly things. He doesn't have …
  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=12618.msg148184#msg148184 date=1322663611] Andrew, George_Mina_Awad goes by "Jimmy". Just thought I'd put that out there. [/quote] Duly noted.
  • BTW, is the professor Coptic?
  • It's a good book though  :) If your intention is to take what you learn and apply it to the liturgical services, don't take the course. If you are taking this with a scholarly attitude and you may do research in the future, etc., than it will great…

  • What school do you go to? Who is your professor? I took a Sahidic Coptic course. . we used the Lambdin book. Merely being exposed to the coptic language in church doesn't make learning the language any easier. It does help for pronunciation though …
  • [quote author=servant33 link=topic=12618.msg148137#msg148137 date=1322625996] Alright, 'nother question. What about food that is 100% vegan, like a veggie burger, veggie cheese, and soy milk. Is it fasting? [/quote] We have to understand that the …
