how accurate is this website? is it official enough now to congratulate anba angels (of uk) who I will see soon? sorry I don't understand the usa politics but i pray u will all have love, peace and tolerance. anba karas was the first orthodox priest…

yes, preparing for death is a great way to live your life.do you have access to any of the coptic orthodox liturgies in your language?if so, reading these give all the answer you need.if not, try here:www.copticchurch.net/topics/liturgy/liturgy_of_s…

very well said :)

you only 'loose' salvation if u 'had' it in the first place. 2 peter 1 verse 10 and revelation 2 verse 7 make it clear that we need to make our salvation sure by overcoming the evil one. romans 8 verse 39 reassures us that no evil force can take thi…

maybe the denominations are being used as proxy arguments when the real differences are the usual marital stresses. may God guide u to be filled with love, submit to God and resist the devil. then the evil one will flee

does anyone have a recording of pi oik (the bread) in english with the words spaced out in an english way? i mean like 'o-o-f l-i-i-fe' and not 'o-o-o-o oflife'. in fact does anyone have any recordings at all of any good orthodox Christian songs…

all images have only limited usefulness.for exemple, if the kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, it does not mean all Christians make great pilau rice (with mustard, cumin etc.) but it means that it looks small but grows into something very big…

sorry, saw this bit late, hope it went well, stay close to Godoujai khen epChois:)

please pray and we will pray for u. please also see your doctor as it sounds like u are very low and a trip to the doctor can often help

see john 15:26 and orthodoxwiki/Filioque adding something to the nicene creed (which was agreed by all the churches including the roman church) was unnecessary. the correct way to alter the creed would have been to summon an international (eccumeni…

are u looking for comfort like many people in developed countries? do u read gossip (eg. about other churches?) are u part of the problem or part of the solution? do u go 2 church to seek something familiar or do u go 2 learn how to die for Christ?…

let the bishops do their work and we should do our work. eg. if u have transport and time, you can visit other orthodox churches in your neighbourhood from time to time. make friends there. if u are the only orthodox Christian in your village, you …

it is from the septuagint and very, very reliable. if you doubt it, it is like saying you think cocoa is fake because it does not taste sweet like chocolate! you are used to the massoretic text, but the septuagint is closer to the old testament quo…

binC, hello! long time no 'see'. happy new year :)

most eastern orthodox Christians are lovely, spend less time on the internet and you will find them :)

what most people are saying is that you should either change your religion because you believe that is the correct faith, and stay with that religion even if you don't marry this lady,or marry someone from your religion (if you don't want to change …

i agree, but maybe a few people should still speak arabic in order to help the rest of the world know Gods' love. it is a very useful language, even if you don't know it well!

thank you so much for linking that, thanks to God for His grace all over the world

top tip:talk to real life EOs about this. the ones that aren't on the internet are much more accepting, especially once they see you and see your sincere faith when you visit their church.(exception being menas17, thanks for your lovely comments - i…

hopefully we can safely debate it online now one or two duplicate account spammers have been dealt with.

anyone got a translation?sorry i only know 2 words of tigrinya!

hmm, think you need a philosopher. i haven't heard of this concept.doesn't sound like a theological question (unless I missed something when I joined the church!)

dear friend, we all have temptations and actually it is more common than u think to have same sex temptations. many who are tempted this way also have opposite sex temptations much later in life. others have opp. sex temptations when young and same …
