[quote author=Joshuaa link=topic=11507.msg138643#msg138643 date=1306528096] The Trinity has three different roles. [/quote] Was that a response to me? My post was directed at Ioaness. Do you want us to give our thoughts on how prove the existence…

[quote author=Ioannes link=topic=11475.msg138617#msg138617 date=1306511909] Of all the billions of starving and dying people. People in war torn countries suffering massive persecutions. The daughters that are being abused and sold into slavery, you…

Christ the historical figure?

What is this? I didn't know 6 year olds were allowed to make accounts on tasbeha.org?! Grow up, Sudani. Abba Antony: A brother said to Abba Anthony, 'Pray for me.' The old man said to him, 'I will have no mercy upon you, nor will God have any, if …

God willing you will be happy with the result.

The Lord has given us the power to tread on serpents and scorpions and upon all the powers of the enemy. Use His power and you will overcome the evil one.

Mina, one can hold a personal opinion about which cantor to follow without that necessarily being his/her preference. For example, I might have the personal opinion that Albair is the most accurate and that I should follow his instruction but I migh…

You have already made up your mind. You are coming into this with too much baggage; if you do not empty yourself from your preconceptions reading and asking questions will be fruitless. You have asked already asked questions and it seems that you ha…

Thank you ;D

[quote author=copticuser20 link=topic=11441.msg138449#msg138449 date=1306199308] CIA teaching niethnos teero now: http://stmaryserver.saint-mary.net/streaming/ [/quote] Please tell me someone recorded it!

I am glad we can laugh about people being silly enough to think that they could actually predict the end. But let us (me first of all) be ready and not take the matter so lightly. If anything, we should realize that although we cannot predict the en…

If you truly converted and tasted the beauty of Orthodoxy, such a thought would hardly cross your mind. Converts are usually the most steadfast in the faith. There are a few muslim converts at my own church and no one treats them any differently t…

Congrats, Father!

I agree, father. I guess watching these saint movies is what gives the wrong message. For example, the "Silent Monk" gives his money to people that he knows full well are taking advantage of him, in the opening scene. The only reason I am for alwa…

[quote author=Father Peter link=topic=11404.msg138256#msg138256 date=1305829353] Well I am not going to argue. Do as you will. [/quote] Forgive me for coming off as being argumentative, father. That was not my intention.

So there is only one particular lesson for all parables? I think not. OK, but what we give the poor is DUE to them as well. We are merely trust-holders. God has given us a blessing but the money is not ours. So when we give the poor money we are n…

[quote author=epchois_nai_nan link=topic=11081.msg138232#msg138232 date=1305800224] [quote author=Unworthy1 link=topic=11081.msg138225#msg138225 date=1305789257] I am not sure I understand. Could you explain more? Why would the persecution of the Je…

Do not be surprised when you face tribulations in this life for it was promised to us by God (John 16:33). Your reward will be greater because of your struggles. St. John Chrysostom goes on about this at length. One interesting point he makes, when …

[quote author=Father Peter link=topic=11404.msg138227#msg138227 date=1305790551] Firstly that was a parable, and secondly it was not a gift, it was his inheritance. In the time of our Lord those who begged were the sick, the elderly, the displaced.…

Thanks for that Mina! ;D

[quote author=Boricua_Orthodox link=topic=11081.msg138215#msg138215 date=1305769672] Dzheremi's comment was very good. But also the reason why many Jews don't believe in Christ is....because of Christian themselves! Dont want to offend nor start any…

[quote author=Father Peter link=topic=11404.msg138202#msg138202 date=1305756870] It is not a good deed to help someone sin though. So it is better to give food than give money which will be spent on drink and drugs. [/quote] What about the father w…

If you cannot go into specifics it is hard to say. Seek the guidance of your FoC; he will be able to distinguish whether it is from God or yourself based on the thought that entered your head.

I'll do Je Nai Nan 20 times. I haven't learned Kata Ni Khoros and I can't do metanias during the Holy 50! Maybe after :) Kidding aside (sorry I couldn't resist), the prayers of the saints be with you.

Thanks for the commentary and I second your suggestion ;)

I am referring to the parable of the talents (Matt. 25:14-30). Some are given more gifts - each according to his ability. It is safe to assume that I have only received one talent and as long as I do not bury it in the ground but work with God will …

[quote author=GMAN link=topic=11458.msg138126#msg138126 date=1305670041] Firstly, for those who think that loneliness can be cured by being satisfied with God - this is wrong. Fr Anthony Messeh once said that Adam was lonely even though God was all …
