may God give u great grace and patience. the enemy is like a roaring lion who loves to hurt us, so he tempts our loved ones to say things they don't mean. sometimes we reply with things we wish we did not say. keep praying and thanking God for each …

quick correction: it is the 'mini pill' (progesterone only pill) that prevents implantation of the unborn baby into the uterus and so may act to cause abortion. the combined contraceptive pill does not do this as it prevents ovulation.

may God bless u and also those from this page: http://evangelismcopticorthodox.org/onlineevangelismclass.html i assume you have links with them. :)

i am not sure it's possible! i tried here: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php/topic,12148.msg143500.html#msg143500 and could only do it on word for mac but not on internet chat forums. i will be watching this space to see if anyone sort…

may God bless u and you r family and all those in philipines also. it is good to 'see' you here. :)

just stand up for the gospel (as you are a Christian). nothing else needed.

don't avoid church. but if you feel it is too difficult or stressful to serve in church please discuss this with a priest or deacon. you can go there to worship God, you don't have to always serve. may God bless you.

we shouldn't honour the spirits of the dead and gods of the dead like the pagans do by making scary costumes and pretending that communicating with the spirits is just a bit of fun. we are Christians, and we can only ask the Christian dead to remem…

this is truly beautiful. :) the english words are put into the tune really well, i mean without long pauses in the middle of words that people do in coptic, but sounds awful to a native english speaker. it is really, really well done, with all the …

err, i go on these 2 forums a lot! :-[ in my defense, i don't watch tv, so i do have time to meet real life people too! ;) i have actually met 4 people now in real life that i first met on Christian forums. they were just as nice in real life! w…

welcome, tobit! great name, i love the story of tobit :-) definately praying from the agpeya is good, and listening to tasbeha when ironing clothes or doing other chores is great. you can get english tasbeha (night praises) on this website - tell us…

i was not against marriage with 'non coptics'. i think it is not wise for a Christian to marry someone who isn't a Christian. even marriage to a different sort of Christian is hard work, but to a non Christian is too much hard work. my husband is …

also maybe you can use social media to 'chat' to friends more coz that way you don't have to actually talk. pray a lot, spend time in church and God will guide you. make friends with people who don't have a good social status, like the little kids o…

hi, i am sending p.m. may God give u strength. i found praying consistently (even if only 1 or 2 prayers from agpeya / day plus personal prayers) got me much closer to God and then i found it easier to pray to Him about the things that really hurt. …

[quote author=✞SuperMAN✞(BAM)✞ link=topic=14610.msg166224#msg166224 date=1381418824] I would not mind marrying a woman that is not Christian and living with her for the rest of my life, the only problem is the children, [/quote] :o :o :o my ch…

may God guide u and give u His peace and love. stay close to God and He will give u wisdom with the people around you. remember no one is perfect, so maybe your friends can do better if given a second chance.

hi, what i mean is that all of our faith has a clear explanation, and we should keep asking till we get answers; the answers are definitely there. if there are some hymns that don't make sense; this is a different problem. so we rejoice that salvati…

this is the best answer!

ezekiel the prophet had a vision of the incarnation in ezekiel chapter 44:2 when the king/prince enters through the east gate, and the gate remains always shut. the gate represents the virgin mary, and the gate being shut represents her remaining al…

hi and welco9me, EBK. did u try: http://www.france-copte.net they have a contact page (i assume u speak french, if not, it is 'contactez nous') and maybe someone there knows. this site seems to be down at the moment: www.eglise-copte-orthodoxe-de-f…

happy feast of the cross, guys! :)

try here: http://tamavirene.com/ it's a lot of reading. this is good for you. :)

sort of; because when we sin, we deserve God's wrath. but if we just say 'Lord have mercy', we can think 'you know, God, i am a weak human, so it's your job to have mercy'. so maybe we may not be too sorry for our sin. but if we say 'Lord take away …

hello, dear chinese bot, i wish you success with your business!

ahh, you are living in different countries. ouch. i did that too, but only for a short time. i was not spiritual enough for a long engagement, so we got married quite quickly after arriving in the same country! not the easiest time of my life, but a…

i agree completely, that is why i don't want to add anything to the songs that are already allowed. i just want to find out where our boundaries are and work within them. i think our liturgy and our church are very special and beautiful. i want to e…
-
i would also really like to know if there is a longer list of allowed songs as it really helps in churches which are reaching out to the community around them to sing songs in a language people understand and with tunes that are not too hard to sing…

hi, rebecca.ann! i 'know' you (in the virtual friendship form of the word) from the other forum (where i have the same 'name') so i doubt you are dressing provocatively. unfortunately from my knowledge of south egyptian (sa'eedi) families, Christian…
