[coptic]+ Pi`[/coptic] but crucially whether kissing is in the first place is accpetable and i hate to break it to you , but the answer is that it isnt acceptable, whether it will lead to sex or not! Would you please tell me what is inherently wrong…

[coptic]+ Pi`[/coptic] I just want to make a slight correction to your second quote, it's: 1 Thessalonians 5:21 ... instead of 5:28. Thanks for the correction. I have no idea how I mistyped it. :D
-
[coptic]+ Pi`[/coptic] While I know you mean well, I do feel my concern is a legitimate one. I will wait to hear back from Mike before I go any further in this matter. In the mean time, would you kindly point me to the thread in which this had be…

[coptic]+ Pi`[/coptic] Seems like my response caused a little controversy. There is no controversy, I was just objecting to your statement that three's a crowd. I do think having Gods guidance is the most important step Who better then to help provi…

[coptic]+ Pi`[/coptic] Dear John, You make a very interesting point. Love is a very very very important virtue. But thinking about it, are the virtues themselves great, or is the person who possesses these virtues great (and by great, I mean gre…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Along the lines of what Matt has said: Very early on the first day of the week, they *came to the tomb when the sun had risen. -- Mark 16:2 Now after He had risen early on the first day of the week, He first…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] John, To quote a person who far exceeds me wisdom: Your kind comment about me was far more than I deserve - but very kind. :) Please pray for me.

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] John, If you go to your profile and under the 'Modify Profile' menu at the left, there is an option that says 'Account Related Settings'. You can change your name there. Please pray for me.

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] two is company three is a crowd Is this a joke? These two are not gossiping or exchanging secrets or anything like that. It seems that for trivial issues, one feels the need to run to their FoC, and yet, in a…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Becoming a monk is a calling. God has chosen people and called them to a life of asceticism. If you are called to be a monk, it is a great blessing and should be embraced. However, whether you become a monk…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Okay, fair enough. This begs the following question: Why does someone who is in university (I'm assuming of course, based on your previous posts) have concerns like these? Please pray for me.
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I don't wish to sound harsh here, but I honestly can't believe this is a sincere and legitimate question/concern to begin with. Some of the questions I've seen raised seem almost infantile. I'm just curious,…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Furthermore, what im suggesting is even LESS mean actually than what u are proposing: Im suggesting that she goes up to him and tells him politely (BUT FIRMLY) to not call her again. THat's more civilised and l…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I don't like it actually when i hear copts saying and preaching "You are all sinners, you are not worthy.. do not forget you are a sinner" to make people realise the value of God's love, and that they need to b…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Dear timid65, Thank you for responding to my post, I need all the advice I can get. However, you seem to have misunderstood something "you are able to, after something has happened to this person, feel that th…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I'm going to modify what Mina said a bit, if I may. Always think and know that you are a child of God, but never forget that you are a sinner and that you are not worthy of such an honour. This is an honour …
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] There are always two ways to deal with a situation: a civil way and the 'mean' way. In almost all cases, it is not necessary to be mean at all. In this case in particular, if she just ignores the person, and…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] All the forums on coptichymns.net are closed for the Pascha week. Try accessing it again next week. Have a blessed Pascha. Please pray for me.
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] There is just one thing I want to clarify. I don't see that you are foretelling any events. What I do see is that you are able to, after something has happened to this person, feel that they are in distress …
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Maryam, If you feel that the temptation will be too great for the both of you to handle, then I would suggest that you stop kissing entirely. You do not want to fall into sin, and God knows that this type of…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] This is something I didn't notice before but wish to address: I still don't know how monks will be judged on the last day To put it simply, this is not your concern. This is something between the individual (…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I've been giving this question some thought and have come to the conclusion that it is an invalid question. 'Which is the greater virtue?' I suppose we could ask 'Which is the greater sin?' The thing is, we…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] [quote author=kerestina link=topic=5109.msg69259#msg69259 date=1175521943] [quote author=vassilios link=topic=5109.msg69253#msg69253 date=1175476476] OK. You know what... NO ONE here has ANSWERED this poor gir…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Kerestina, I have always viewed the FoC as primarily the person one turns to for spiritual advice. If a person is comfortable confiding in their FoC in other matters, that is up to them. But it is as you sa…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] The Passion week is the perfect time to figure out what the both of you should do. Spend this week in silence, prayer and contemplation. Reconnect with God, who is the source of Love, because He is Love. Tr…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] i think that you should talk to him online telling him that you dont want to go out or anything like that... that you guys would just be friends She has already tried this and the boy is not taking the hint. …
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Excellent post. I only disagree with one part of it, where you talk about a man who has committed adultery before he is married (or a woman for that matter) and does not tell their future spouse. I would thi…

[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] u are his friend just to be considered ONE of his many wives (lol), Sorry bro, but what do you mean by this?
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] I'm not sure why exactly one needs to go see their FoC in a matter like this. This is not an issue of two people interested in each other, who wish to pursue a relationship that will potentially lead to marri…
-
[coptic]+ Iryny nem `hmot>[/coptic] Might I suggest that you talk to your mom. She may be able to act as an intercessor in all of this on your behalf. Please pray for me.
