  • [quote author=Ioannes link=topic=9788.msg120143#msg120143 date=1286136499] Hell does not exist because, or is atleast being prepared, for the unrighteous and satan and his angels. To assert that anyone goes to hell or heaven after death is incorrect…

  • [quote author=Cyril97 link=topic=9785.msg119988#msg119988 date=1285794685] Why is the veili prayer prayed? What is it for? Is it a "pre-written" personal prayer? [/quote] no.....it have psalms and a gospel and litanies as the other prayers. actuall…
  • We think that Satan himself is bound in hell.....you can understand that through a study into the book of Zechariah the prophet.......all the evil that we are living in now is just his evil spirit and intentions done through his demons. [quote auth…

  • [quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=9769.msg119813#msg119813 date=1285358470] Minagir, So I guess St. Mark should be even before them since he is the one that taught us about all of them. Another great mark for St. Mark!. [/quote] if used sam…
