not to worry...
most ppl have high blood pressure and they are just fine, just make sure that he takes his medications (if any) on a timely basis, and he'll be just fine.
plus prayer is your friend.
my foc always tells me when satan starts to tempt me, i should get my self busy, and get my brain thinking about something else other than what i was doing before satan started, and may be get up and go take a walk...
this might help u i hope.
I agree with you, but I think all of this technology stuff just increases the temptation rate on the monks since satan can use these as weapons against them.
My personal opinion, I think if Anba Antonius or Anba Bola come back to the monasteries an…
hey mike,
you bring a good question up!!! why do we believe in Jesus??
look, i'm not gonna tell you that the bible is authentic, and try to prove it to you, but i'll remind you of couple of things that will make you believe in God Jesus Christ:
1.…
vas, may be it was my fault when i said i don't like to pray from a piece of paper... but i always do when i pray the agepya... the reason why i said i don't like reading from a piece of paper is because of this: image that i have 15 names to mentio…
You are right esakla23; our church does not interpret this verse the same as how the Pentecostal church interprets…
To help understand the Pentecostal point of view, I was born in Egypt and my parents taught me arabic, and that is what I grew up sp…
rabanna ma3aak awad,
abouna tadros malaty says "if you make God happy, He will make you happy!"
make God happy by reading in the bible, praying for yourself, your brother, and your family, and He will make you happy...
we all will make God happy …
oh man, i was falling asleep reading this nice bed time story :P
JUST KIDDING
so you pretty much have the same idea as me, but do you ever think we will look down at earth and look at the people, and pray for them?
I guess if we were to look down…
tayab 7`alas... why are you sooo worried...
wait, lets go back to my question cause I really don't know the answer to it? what do we see initially when we die(going to heaven or to hell)? copticcross3 was saying something about diamonds, and gold g…
copticcross3, bentBABAyasooa'
u guys should be a little optimistic about heaven and where you are going... let me ask you this: 1. do you go to church? 2. do you confess? 3. do you take communion? if you answered yes, then you are in!!!
you don't h…
I agree with all of you guys, but if you are worried about what other people might say, ask abouna to give you communion privately... Abounas do that alot of times when someone is sick....
BUT remember to pray for me :)
and welcome aboard!!
if you are looking for something simple to just ask a question and get a reply back, check out my church's website: www.stpachomius.org, we have a section where you can send a question directly to abouna and he will answer it back, then the question…
sorry i wasn't clear last time,
Speaking in tongues just mean speaking in different languages... so for example, when someone is born, the parents would be teaching him/her a language (i.e arabic, english, etc...), and as this person grows, they mig…
esakla,
Your question is a very good question, and fortunately, abouna covered this topic during the bible study sessions. Here is what he said:
At the time St Paul wrote this epistle, the people of Corinth were faking their gifts in the sense that …
so who do you think we will see first at that moment when we know we're dead? our guardian angel? Christ? Virgin Mary? our intercessor? satan? or all at once?
Hello,
Remember what the bible said about the miracle of the two fish and five loaves of bread? Jesus gave to the apostles and the apostles gave to the people.
Now a days, Jesus gives to the priests, and the priests give to us.
Also, Jesus gave th…
Hello,
I think ideally, we should think about monks and how they view death. They just see it as a gateway to get to God whom they desired the most. They wait for it everyday. And look forward to it. They even say to themselves, today is the last da…
Hi,
We all have hope in Christ and His resurrection, even St. Paul. You too Mike, you should know that you are saved!
Everyone who believes in Him, and partakes in the divine communion shall be saved.
Pray for me.
Hello,
All of you guys have every good interesting comments made here which taught me alot, but I'm not sure why we are talking about death of muslims, or non-baptized, or non-orthodox, etc... Only think about your own life. Remember that the wise v…
Hey,
If you are thinking about it in earthly matters - God gives us something like job, wife, house, etc... then for sure, we can not give God "money" or something similar in return that would componsate. Instead, we can offer Him a humble heart.
