I will answer later minasoliman sorry to sound abstract. I need to ask more questions of you.
I think death as a mercy is as a relief from this world in its sin and suffering.
Everything has a direction.
Some things are more benign in direction in comparison than the inheritance Christ wants to share with us.
Inheritance starts from a family relationship and as I started before satan will inherit this world when it's…
The question for me is: How does God reveal Himself?
I know He revealed Himself in Adam; in image.
I know He revealed Himself in Christ.
So for me, He does not need to reveal anything more than that would bring us to Him. So the things that tie…
Question Why did they live so long at the start of the bible if we descended from apes?
That's like saying "why did we live so long at the start of the bible if we descended from dust?" What makes your question any better than the literal? I…
I remember Tasony telling me they were immortal, and that is why after the fall when they lived to great ages,there was a reduction so as you read on, the ages of man became less and less. In other words mankind slowly lost that immortal beginning …
Didn't know Mina was a scientist.
I oppose evolution because it takes a material worldly view and I think intelligent design is just a compromise which came from some protestant.
Why do you let it worry you Zoxsasi
I acknowledge and understand the points you are making minasoliman.
However, works done by the Holy Spirit come through to us by the understanding of the Church Fathers. I'm sure none had evolution concept.
Is the Holy Spirit going to inform us o…

I think minasoliman when you say God is involved in all things, you are saying the Holy Spirit is doing it as the Holy Spirit is in everyone.
If the Holy Spirit wasn't in everyone then God couldn't judge anyone.
That brings me to a point where we …
I have a question.
If there is a God. Would He of told us in any other way or done anything different than the way He has done it?
Maybe more questions.
If Adam is in the image of God and in the old testament He is light, would Adam be represe…
Hello Khepra
Yes, when an opinion is expressed we try to talk in acknowledgement of the others comments. When it's not it becomes a power struggle with egos not giving in not learning what we're communicatng together.
Isaiah 41:10
10 So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
I know it's not a Psalm but it might be good for memory.
Hello Sara
God knows what is in everyone's hearts, so unless we know the depths of His compassion and love we can not say the person will not be saved.
It is infinitely good that in your opening letter you show much conscience and sorrow for …
Acts 20:28 "Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood." Since I was young, I have always thought o…
When I'm inside listening to abouna praying the Commemoration of the Saints, I think of the good those saints have done for the church in our Lord's name and also about those who have pasted away, (three in a very short space of time last year who…
Matthew 19:19-29 Jesus explains it well here. So if your neighbour is poor, how would you be able to treat him or her as yourself when Jesus asked to love your neighbour as yourself? Also, to honour your father and your mother is im…
Dear Marina, We aren't perfect and certainly have many faults. I pray you aren't burdened with too many expectations that you can never seem to be fulfilled in. Mother of the True Light, the Theotokos, Saint Mary. I pray for Your int…
I'm not sure why people would not want for the churches to come to join in our Lord Christ's faith? To find a commoniality in faith that would see that the See of the apostles would come from the One who sent them out into the world and preached t…
Sorry So blue, maybe you are putting too much into logic and so your feelings are suffering. I think maybe you might need to embrace what you feel. Read the bible as it is full of life and the way people feel and how God has dealt with it and what…
Our Bishop stressed that point that we are missionaries just a couple of weeks ago. The church in Fiji is just great and they are fantasic singers. Praise God that they are so blessed.
I pray God keeps you in all your ways Mabsoota and that you are continually blessed in His grace.
I pray for you too Altair9 that you overcome our common enermy satan and like wise blessed by God's
love.
I get the feeling you feel others have let you down. Maybe not, but it wouldn't be fair anyway, as the church is still expanding and I guess this would take some degree of patience. It would probably be quicker than the OO and EO churches getting…
I had asked and was asked my e-mail. However, there hasn't been a responce. So I guess I will give you an e-mail address as I did someone else asking something similar. It's [email protected]
