Thank you too Mabsoota
The one where you say: always remember that other people know more than you, and don't be the first to give your opinion. Made me reproach myself when I read it. Then I thought, am I making one of my problems someone else's?…
I was told that I was the priest of the family.
So I think I read somewhere it is not submission in the sense you think but obeying and the husband as priest lives his live in the wisdom of the bible and if he doesn't then she doesn't have to obey.
When wrote that verse last night. I saw your question and after went to Facebook and a friend had put that verse down in Arabic. I couldn't read it but I looked up the verse and I had to answer to your problem.
There are five high points in my li…
I was baptisted in the Coptic church a little over ten years ago now and abouna came and visited me before I was baptisted and asked me to choose a name out of the bible. A little story sorry. I chose Solomon because when I was young and learned tha…
In the English language we only have one word for love but in the Greek language there are three. I can't remember the words at this moment but I do know what they mean.
One means like the love of ice cream etc.
One means like the love of fami…
Another thing is that because protestants believe they have salvation by God's grace alone they cut off the ones whom Jesus choose to be His bride, namely, the apostles.
Jesus isn't going to marry Himself but that God's works prepare the bride in…
I read the Catholicon in church yesterday and as God always helps me I should try to help others. This is part of what I read: 1 John 4:12-13
No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfec…
Sometimes we need to wait a little before a situation cools down. Till the emotions aren't so strong, before we can be reasonable
Males think differently than females. For example: my wife said to me that she thought she was getting a bit fat. In…
Hello venadoazul
I am sorry that you are having problems with your relationship. I pray you are granted tto be put on he right path.
The first thing I noticed after reading your post was there seems to me to be jealousy in the relationship.

I too dislike the protestant influences in church.
This is my disagreement with it; that protestants believe they have already received salvation when Jesus died on the cross. So when you listen to their songs or anything about them you can hear …
Hi hiten33 you used the right word when you said sin is a trap. If you think of sin is a trap then you can think in terms of God helping you to get youselff free.
Then when you talk to abouna you will be talking about how you are going to be free…
God had explained that He found iniquity in satan in Ezekiel 28:15. He exposes satan separation from God in a spiritual sense much in the same way God reveals Himself in the spritual sense.
This separation is what Jesus Christ will judge on the f…
My prayers for you loannes. I remember your tribulations in your church. I have been going through some myself in my church.
I feel if you go back Ioannes and do what you are supposed to do without judgment or feelings of rejection by them then,…
Thanks for praying for me Khas.
I think what you said about yourself having pride is one issue that if you can turn it around will solve a lot of others because the pride stops God from helping you.
I'm wondering if you would like to buddie u…
I will be praying for you my brother.
The world is full of sin but dont be too hard on yourself as God's wisdom can extricate you from it.
One thing that keeps us sinning is lack of self-discipline. We lose our ability to focas on what we shou…
Khas I pray you're ok now.
If not, then I pray God will find someone who will support you in times of weakness. If you have found someone, let them know any bad feelings you might be having. Then it would be good if they are there with you.
Pri…
Satan was a cherub and God explains his iniquity in talking about the king of Tyre.
Ezekiel 28: 12-15 12 ..... Thus says the Lord "You were the seal of perfection, full of wisdom and perfect in beauty. 13 You were in Eden, the garde…
It would of being easier if God revealed Himself by defining Himself in a less mysterious way. Even the Father said He was I Am which is ambiguous. I like Proverbs chapter 8.
If you are in doubt Mike pray be merciful to me a sinner for I don't know what is good for me unless I have your word. Also pray to God to enlighten your mind to know His wisdom.
God bless you Mike
Hi Mike
Isaiah 66:2
"For My hand made all these things, Thus all these things came into being," declares the LORD "But to this one I will look, To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.
Why would God say this…
