  • Basically, dont look at each other or you will go to hell.  ;)
  • elijah and Anok cannot still be on earth. One was taken up in a chariot. but where did it go?
  • yea the problem i have with it is that we always say that the purpose of the ascension was for Jesus to open the gates of heaven. And the period bet. death and resurrection was for opening paradise. I dont even know why we do that "play" during the …
  • The church is where the believers pronounce their belief in God. Many have pronounced their belief in God without the church. (ex. people living in solitude in the desert) The bride of Christ is the belief in Christ. Since all these churches believe…
  • Eyptian parents and egyptian in-laws want to brag. It is in their blood. Be courageous and be strong. Think at a higher level and show that you are confident in your own happiness. Do not let this culture affect who you truly are inside. Yes it may …
  • Purgatory is a place believed to exist by the roman catholic church in which people are temporarily punished for their sins on earth. Upon completion they go to heaven and live happily ever after.
  • [quote author=vassilios link=topic=63.msg70293#msg70293 date=1177343309] So, i come into Church at 8AM in the hope of trying to avoid purgatory time, and to attend ANYTHING before the mass starts. So, what happens?? http://tasbeha.org/hymn_libra…
  • Ibrahim Ayad's recording is wrong by the way. He adds an extra line which no one else says so i am guessing he wasnt paying attention.
  • What is the order for the VOC during the 39 days? Do you say Kerya leyson and go straight to A pee ekhristos? Because i heard a couple different things.
  • I really dont like this "speeding up church" idea. If you seriously aren't coming to church because it is long, something is wrong with you. If you are doing your best to attend and pray and grow spiritually, then God is not gonna be angry with you …
  • Ill pay you bro.
  • So i am right when i say it has its own tune?
  • I heard that there is another way somewhere.
  • thanks so much mina. Any knowledge on the other tune?
  • Good friday-the ending of Remember me-it is the hymn for Dimas the theif all i know-some say piepnevma tune.  Some say rarer tune.
  • Actually alot of evidence supports evolution and the Big Bang. What you are trying to say is that they are not 100% proven.
  • Lol this is probably some Jewish scheme to convert Christians
  • on the discovery channel...not sure when
  • Yea Sarkis is the muallim, back in the day, who composed this hymn. He put his name in the last paragraph in order for people to pray for him. The hymn is said in alphabetical order making it easier for blind muallims to memorize.
  • first of all you have to conquer one problem before you start thinking about the next. Stop the bad habits. Really. You are going to wake up one day and tell yourself that you have been wasting your time (drinking, partying etc.) Please believe me. …
  • So the real question is probably "how do we know this is the true body and blood of Christ?" This takes an understanding of the love of God, the value of the church, and the body of Christ which is the church. Understanding the word of God, and the …
  • OK about the lady who took the communion to a lab: There is a flaw in this. The lady's gum cells could have been in the communion. This story does not prove that the bread and wine became the body and blood. For if it were so, God has the power to r…
  • I am not sure what type of Christianity he came into. However, being that thirsty for the word of God, he will probably strive to understand God in whatever Christianity he becomes a part of. Hopefully, his new understanding can allow him to become …
  • I always thought that the tribulations were a test to Job, not a punishment. I don't know I could be wrong.
  • yea Scott. Feel free to ask your questions or share your thoughts on the forumn. You will definitly get good answers. God Bless You
  • Thats a very good story as well. It is not only important to pray for our brothers and sisters already being persecuted for Christ, but it is also important to pray for our new brothers and sisters who find the truth.
  • you probably have to wait until tomorrow. Why are you posting here? lol
  • So what do most churches do? Just say the theotokia in the tune, without the extra passages??
  • Nevermind. I understand now. Usually the congregation starts with eleycon, then the priest says peklaos, and the shab answers in a different language. Then, the priest can continue in a different language. But i still don't know what they did in th…
  • Galations 6:14: "But God forbid that I boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the WORLD has been crucified to me and I the WORLD." All people have a connection to the saving cross of Jesus Christ. Show them what they have been …
