  • Yes, I believe Origen commented quite extensively on this issue, showing that the lack of the article shows that the Logos is God, but not God the Father. Ahh... I understand now... Since he said the word was with God, as in God the Father, then he…
  • The exact answer from the early times: St. Mary gave birth painlessly.
  • Thank you Iqbal... I seem to understand what you are saying now... I'll post my final draft soon...
  • Furthermore, JW's fail to realise that had St. John qualified the term theos with the definite article, the Trinitarian conception of God would have been destroyed. In other words, the fact JW's point to the absence of the definite article as a proo…
  • And (in the old days, not any more) it was held that if a person paid money to the Church, the Church would give them the excess "points" earned by the Saints, which would pass through purgatory quicker. I believe these were called indulgences - an…
  • Wow.... thank you so much... I never realized I could add so much... With the part where Christ is burned on a stake... I can't believe I said that... I remember reading that in fact it was a one bar cross - thank you for bringing my attention to t…
  • What do you mean it was acceptable? Accepted by who? Adam and Eve were naked in the Garden of Eden simply because of lack of knowledge. They didn't know they were naked to begin with, and so in turn they didn't cover themselves. Once they ate from t…
  • Quote: nope .. was iut the catholics that believe in punishemnt in hell and then they go heaven after suffered(cant memba the name) was that the catholics or protestant????? Roman Catholic doctrine of Purgatory I think [Forgive me if I'm wrong].…
  • No reason to be sorry... ;D
  • Its right here... http://www.saintmina-holmdel.org/Multimedia/index.php Go to Spiritual Songs... then look for the Better Life (its in the beginning) and the album named Mali Sewak, its the first track on the left side.
  • socoolbishoy, I believe you understood her wrong. The problem is not with the lesson or the message. She is giving a basic Old Testament story - nothing wrong with that. The only problem is with a question, which I personally wouldn't have been able…
  • Not only will seeing a priest be neccassary for confession, but spiritual guidance and advice. I personally have no idea what I would do without mine... He's exactly like my own dad... Priests are not there to judge but to guide. Remember that this …
  • Ahh... That is a problem... I'll try to see if I can find out anything for you...
  • Hmm... I don't know... I told abouna I wanted one before and he told me they were expensive... You can find the Synaxarium at any Church bookstore.
  • Nope, I just accessed and printed from it. Maybe there is something wrong with your computer?
  • Thank you Orthodox 11, :) I never looked at it that way...
  • Elijah fasted for forty days and nights in the desert. It is not medically possible, but remember that with the strength of God man can do anything.
  • I didn't mean tasbeha or alhan or etc, rather secular music. But for one that previously listened to music, I found now spiritual food in it. Maybe it differs from person to person, but I cannot see how someone talking about the completely wrong mea…
  • Orthodox 11, glad to be of help. ;) Mazza, I doubt they exist.
  • Having the desire to listen to music, in my eyes, in and of itself is wrong. Any desire for anything that is not associated with Christ means that I am not fixing my eyes on the race I have to run, but rather I am losing my focus on the true prize. …
  • Start by reading the Psalms. They are full of prayers for repantance and strengthening, etc.. Then start praying from your heart, just telling God everything inside you and you feel and much you want to get closer to him. I also recommend the book G…
  • Once again, just because she is Christian does not justify her actions. I could be practically living in church and still have a heart full of filth (not that I'm saying she does). Going to church and being Christian doesn't mean that what you are d…
  • K, so you ask your mom for some money because you saw this new outfit that you HAVE TO HAVE TO have. your mom says no. u and ur friends go out that night. they know that ur mom said no, but they go to the store and get the shirt for you, shoplifted…
  • Nancy Agram, or any other secular singer, is by no means approved of the Church for its children to listen to. St. Paul says that he has taken us as a pure bride to present to Christ - by watching nancy dance on a music video is by no means edifying…
  • [quote author=Christ4Life link=board=1;threadid=4178;start=0#msg58083 date=1153794091] I still don't understand. Can someone further elaborate? The way I see it is this, Christ was crucifixified on Friday before sunset so that's one day, and came e…
  • Orthodox 11, the arabic lyrics in english alphabet are here: Meen gheirak bey hen alaya, lama ba koon taban, meen gheirak enta we meen yetra'ef, ma dafe ka ensan... meen meen meen meen meen gheirak yasoo meen, meen gheirak ya yasoo meen. Meen ghei…
  • Marena I would greatly appreciate it if you would tell this angel's story in detail. Thank you sooo much
  • St. Paul says in 1 Corinthians repeatedly that you can eat whatever you please, as long as that doesn't harm anybody else.
  • I agree with Marianne. If someone loved another to the point of marriage, but then when they discover that the other person is ill they no longer want to be part of the relationship? What kind of love is this? Selfish love, and according to St. Paul…
