Just as severus said it depends on the monastery your in but most monasterys today follow similar paths: In the olden times, The monasterys of Scete were filled with monks who were under the care of a spiritual leader but all lived in solitude while…

Well ya, the reason i was stressing hte word redeem was because i was referring to the good people of hte Old Testement who were automatically sentenced to Hades due to Adams Sin. When Jesus died on the Cross they were freed from the Bonds of Hade…

No he killed himself, but his scenario was different, so his shouldnt be judged as a sucide. Then Samson said, “Let me die with the Philistines!” And he pushed with all his might, and the temple fell on the lords and all the people who were in it. …

Jesus Christ died for us to Restore us to Heaven. Hence before this all who died went to Hades whether Good or Bad. This was of course our father's Adam's fault. Matthew 27 says (at hte moment of Jesus' Death) Then, behold, the veil of the temp…

Murder in the Bible has always been a NO and this cvan be clearly seen from the Ten Commandments that God Himself handed to Moses but just as today, in times of war it is be killed or kill thats why a Christian in the war, is not charged with the M…

Lol Sorry one more note on one of the reasons why the Church agreed to re-start relations with the EOTC Patriarch Abune Tekle Haymanot proved to be much less accommodating to the Derg regime than it had expected, and so when the Patriarch died in 19…
-
One can see this similar situation in the Current Eriterian Church, because we still support Abune Antonious. What have you done lately to support him other than saying "we are there with you",.... Unlike president Bush, what we've done is more p…

Unfortuanetly this guy is a typical protestant who believes that we are saved becasue we belive in Christ. I found this webpage online and it has your answer: The Plan of Salvation is the first area adversely affected by the false doctrine of Faith…

I think i have to agree with Hizzchild and Doubting Thomas on this one because by God saving everyone when he went down into hades would mean thta when judgement day comes along we will all likewise be saved (very heretical) An example: If the peop…
