  • And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen' (John 21:25). -------------------------------------…
  • How could He have created us in the form of an animal if He made us in His image? - Chris
  • CA, That's what sleepy and I were talking about...that our religion reconciles God with science (that in some way or another, both are true when put together). - Chris
  • Yea sleepy, I also remember hearing that our Coptic Church believes in the reconciliation of science and religion when it comes to how we became of nature. This is one of my favorite topics, yet I know so little of what our Church has officially sai…
  • Hey CA, Check this out: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=246 It's the topic "Evolution vs. Creation" that you would like to discuss. We already have that discussion going in the above thread. Maybe …

  • And another few verses that relate: 1 Peter Ch. 3 13 Submit yourselves to every ordinance [regulation] of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme: 14 or unto the governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the puni…
  • Here was the verse I was looking for before: Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword (Mat. 26:52).
  • Great!! Thanks, I'll start it now. Any other recommendations? - Chris

  • lol. I don't know about that Wasim. We're closing in on 14 pages on that "GUYS" thread. lol - Chris
  • Any other good spiritual books out there that are good reads? I'm trying to find a book for the summer. Feel free to share thoughts about spiritual books you've read and would recommend. Even if the book was mentioned in another topic, go ahead and…

  • lol. It's not you sleepy. We started going a little off topic many posts ago. It's ok, we'll get back on track now. Sorry if it sounded like I was referring to you. - Chris
  • Our prayers are with Brian and your friend, Mike. But I have just one question concerning what happened with Brian O'Connor. Isn't there a International Human Rights Agreement that prohibits cruel and unusual punishment? I remember also reading abou…
  • High Five For YOU!!! Great way of putting it! ;D
  • It's Tyson. Ali is pretty much a vegetable. Guys, don't you think were perhaps straying just a bit off topic? - Chris
  • I couldn't find one on tasbeha.org, but if you check this site out: http://www.stmarystlouis.bizland.com/new_page_6.htm They have different verses of the cymbals for most of our Church's occasions; most are performed by Ibrahim Ayad and they are a…
  • So then let's drop it. I can bet you that not too many people know of this movie. Not nearly as many as The Passion. But if word gets out that this movie is as controversial as The Passion, it'll sell as many tickets. - Chris

  • Ali called himself the greatest, and ended up with Parkenses because of it. Actually, I think this relates to "sinful" sports. If one becomes good at a sport, and this leads one to boast about one's abilities, they're glorifying themselves, not Go…
  • DimYana, Feel free to upload that picture to "A Breathtaking Miracle" here: http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=166 Concerning the crying of the Virgin, I've always been told it's because she's …
  • What? What did I say? Isn't this the death penalty topic?
  • Since sleepy and Mike both brought up drugs, I have just this to quickly say. How would drug restraint laws be enforced without a fear of jail time? It is that fear that make most think twice before doing drugs in the first place. Of course, not …
  • lol. We can always count on NorthernCross to be blunt! :D I'm just kidding around NC. You add some spice to this website, lol. Back to the exciting topic of cheerleading though... God Bless, - Chris
  • o0o0o...I like that idea CS. Very very good. We can try that next time. Great Idea!!!! :) - Chris
  • Really? When was this? I didn't hear about it. - Chris

  • Matt/Tito, Really? Please elaborate. We would all love to hear it. - Chris
  • lol Mark. An interesting perspective. Believe it or not, there is a female, although most say she is in fact a man in disguise lol, who is on my school's wrestling team (which of course is all guys). When someone asked her why she joined, she said, …
  • Yea, I thought that was it. But for those who don't know the story: Abanoub was only twelve years old when he was martyred by the Roman ruler. On July 31 of each year, the Church celebrates his death, as the day of his birth into eternal life. Aban…
  • El-Nehessy (Nehisa) is the city where St. Abanoub is from. Do you know St. Abanoub's story? I'll post it anyway.
  • Mathitis, Speaking of St. Christopher the Christ-Bearer, did you hear that the Catholics, who at one time venerated him as a saint, no longer do? I don't remember why, but this was very recent. It makes me sad to know that a saint can be a s…
  • I've thought long and hard about this and this is what I came up with (in no specific order of course): St. Abanoub El-Nehessey St. Mina the Wonder Worker Amba Abraam, Bishop of Fayoum (the patron saint of my church) St. Paul the Apostle St. John t…
  • Hmm. This is a tough, good question. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with sports. They are just for entertainment and competition. Even boxing. I know you're beating the living day lights out of each other, but it's not because you hate your …
