I'm sorry, but I feel the need to clarify something.
"If we say that Christ is the beloved of the Father - it means it is a person other than Himself He loves, yet with the Son and the Holy Spirit, this is ONE God. How then can this be ONE God if t…
Hey, welcome... I've been here for a while (as you can see)... I love it. It's a great site, I'm glad you joined. We will never feel sorry, feel free to ask every single question you may have. I'm also from New Jersey, I go to the Virgin Mary and St…
I have to say this issue is terribly arising visually in many places across the U.S. as well. Although you don't see it on billboards often (the most I've ever seen was a beer advertisement with a half-naked woman... not saying that's bad but I'm po…
Unless, it says that Judas is in hell in the Bible (which, to my knowledge, it doesn't, though it greatly condemns him), we cannot make that statement because we do not know what was in his heart. We do know that there are four heavens (St. Paul asc…
Apparently, Discovery Channel has gone crazy with this... They also have a book which is already in circulation and Barnes & Noble claims its the 17th best selling book from them... This is absurd, it really is. The documentary will be aired on …
"Baptism, however, is greater because it gives you the Holy Spirit along with cleansing you from sin."
I am sorry but this is a commonly mistaken fact. We, in baptism, receive forgiveness of our sins through death and reserruction with Christ. Thi…
I believe Orthodox 11 provided the best answer (I heard the same answer before from a priest). Why didn't he have all the wisdom as a baby yet not manifest it? Well tell me, how would a baby chose to manifest something or hide it? Yes, he is God ine…
Ok, in regards to eating food with oil in it, it is allowed in the Coptic Church. However, and I really emphasize this, all fasting and its details should be discussed with the father of confession. Some people in the Coptic Church do fast Wednesday…
I disagree with you Meena_Ameen. Have you ever read Matthew 1? Christ in fact does come from a line of a few prostitutes... that is just to prove the fact that he choses the low to put to shame the wise.
Hizz_chiild,
Sinners were put to death in th…
Allow me to pose the following situation.
Lets say that someone spends many, many years away from God and his church. That period is the worst time of his life, filled with pain and depression and tears and agony... it goes on forever. Now suddenly…
Hey everyone... I'm happy to be back... please pray for me, im under tons of stress...
A common misconception is that the word "Sabbath" means Saturday. Sabbath technically means the day of rest. In the OT, God appointed the day of rest as Saturday…
Woww... ok I'll begin with the love part...
I agree with Marianne 110%... When my little brother was younger, and I am talking maybe a year or two old, whenever he had something and I said I wanted it, he wouldn't think without giving it to me firs…
Bentbabayasso', I just have one thing to say about what you posted.
" even though our fate have been already decided!"
I am afraid somebody who does not know our faith will take this statement to be true - it is implying the theory of Predestinati…
No way... The mother should definitely take communion while pregnant. The reason the Church allows the mother to take communion is because the child is not its own identity and person yet, and is still part of the mother. As long as the child is par…
Mnc_hnn and why where have you been?? This is exactly what I'm looking for when asked about Children's english songs. The age range is 5-8 yrs old. Anything you can give me would be greatly appreciated, more preferrably the audio and lyrics together…

"I deeply recommend you to read "God and Nothing Else" by His Holiness."
where can we get this book?

Any church bookstore should have it.
Why …
Well, I do not think its forbidden, because you will only pray one of the hours and nothing more (correct?). But however, our fathers the monks taught us that when we pray we go into our rooms and close our doors. I really prefer it that way, the on…
I do not think our church said that humans existed 10,000 years ago. Our Savior was born 2,006 years ago. This would that since Adam to Christ there was only about 8,000 years. However this is only my opinion, so I would appreciate anything official…
