dumdum (I like the name too!!! ;))
I am from the U.S., and I have to say that you must be one smart fellow to find that much in common between our scenario with the Roman Catholics, and the Jews with Israel. I hope that you are correct in proving th…
Something to say, sin LEADS to death, and I believe the Bible clearly states, "The wage of sin is death." Also, think about it from this perspective, what does all sin have in common, whether how big or small it is? The answer is: they all prevent y…
Wow, Zakhary, I am amazed, that is UNBELIEVABLE thinking. Who would know to break the number down to the products that make it up? Very well, I know that 144,000 IS DEFINITELY a symbolic number. And to what Mina said, I HAVE TO disagree, considering…
I have only seen the ones that jydeacon has seen...gold, red, and black. I have may have seen orange once, but I am not sure. All of them are just as good as the other ones. And it shouldn't matter, as long as the badrasheel is blessed by God to wea…
1) Peter did not have the Spirit of God...rather, Jesus showed Peter that he was the Son of God, and he believed in Him. Jesus's teachings and miracles proved to Peter that surely He was the Son of God, and then, God gave Peter the COURAGE to procla…
"And the Lord God said, 'It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him.'" - Genesis 2:18
"And the Lord God caused a deep sleep to fall on Adam, and he slept; and He took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh…
Hello needprayers,
First, welcome to the Forum, and more importantly, tell him that you are always going to be there for him no matter what. I am pretty sure that if he was to come to you for help, then you are probably a pretty close friend to him,…
Well, St. Sidhom Bishay is one amazing saint. I still wonder to this day, how was he as silent as he was? He was just as quiet as our Savior, and even endured the suffering to the extent that he died. I find that amazing about him. He was like the "…
Well, God created man, and from man's rib, made woman. Therefore, the woman is what completes the man. It isn't like the man came first, and from his rib another man came. That's why we have two different genders. One COMPLETES the other. I will giv…
If someone is attending the Church, and someone yawns, that is the perfect time for the demon to enter into him and make him demon-possessed. So, that is likely the parts in which the demons "enter" the Church. They only get weak when someone makes …
But does anyone know the real reason why the Pope does not want the Copts going to Jerusalem? That is something I don't understand. I thought at first it was because of Israel being in wars with Palestine and Hezbollah, but now, that doesn't seem wh…
I think the one that would be most accurate is just replacing Pope Shenouda's name with Pope Kyrillos.
Like this:

I heard a lot about it from my grandma, and the fire-like light does not burn clothing (according to her at least). It is amazing light, is what I have heard. I wish to go there too, but I am wondering if H.H. says that Copts now can go to Jerusalem…
Oh, thanks a lot, ilovesaintmark. That clarifies a lot. Well, the piece of cloth that the woman at the Crucifixion held, that wiped Christ's face, still exists, and that clearly defines Christ's face. At least, I believe so.
You should always obey your mother no matter what. It is the Fifth Commandment. Mom knows best. And I wouldn't take any chances with anything, trying to trust someone, and they might go back on their word eventually. Right now, the status quo might …
Yeah, minagir is correct. Sunday is considered the end of the week. Consider that the last day of not fasting is Pre-Lent Sunday. And as minagir correctly states, the first day of fasting is Monday.
Well, Zakhary, I wouldn't say that Muallim Ayaad "dellahs" a lot, but I must say that he does a little bit. But his hymns are just as accepted as Muallim Lewis's are.
Nope, today was 2 Corinthians 6:2-13, and yeah, jydeacon is definitely correct. Lent overrides the calendar (with the exception of Annunciation and Feast of the Cross).
By the way, just to warn you...the Coptic calendar you have must be wrong or something. I checked it on the computer and it says that next week is Ephesians 6:10-24. So just say Ephesians instead of Phillippians and you're done!!!
1.) Phillippians. (Philemon is NOT a Pauline Epistle)
2.) It is probably a misprint, I will check mine and post later
3.) Introduction: Paul, the servant of our Lord Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, appointed to the Gospel of God. A chapter fr…
Well, MPEG is the same as an MP3, or it can be read as an MP3, or at least I believe so...so, I do not think that the format is the problem. If the format is the problem, there are many converters, and the one I would recommend is SUPER. Look for it…
Well, something for everyone to keep in mind...The Church is going to have to update itself with the on-screen presentations and more technological upgrades because if it doesn't, then what will the next generation of deacons be? Who would be attrac…
