RAMADAN When It Happens Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar, which is based on the moon. The western dates of the holiday move up about 10 days every year. In 2006, Ramadan began on September 23rd and will end on October 22nd. Si…

Reading your responses makes so much sense...especially explainations of slander and critism. A lot of people muslims and non put up arguements agianst the over reaction to the cartoon row with citations from the scriptures. This is ok and very intr…

This topic was treated in a related question some weeks back. I had posted that as student of Bible studies [1979], this was my first question to my teacher and his answer then was female children were not usually counted then so Adam might have ha…

I don't believe this...it is really a family we got here. Keep up the good work. :)

Math analysis is very clear and calls for reflections especially by those who see Hisbollah as terrorists. Today it is Palestine, Iraq,Iran,Syria, & Afghanistan .....it is very strange that terrorism is the common reason for the attention and th…

there are three kinds of actions/deeds: 1. physical deeds 2.talking 3.thoughts. One can commit sin in any or all of these actions just as one can use them to earn rewards from God. We all are humans and are bound to faulter at one time or another. …

Is the kidnap of the soldiers the real reason for the awesome destruction of lives and properties? How many more innocent lebanese lives will equate the adopted two ISRAELIs? Were the two killed, and why were they kidnapped? Is the threat to set Leb…

I feel comfartable with gmankbadi position too. I asked a fellow muslim friend of mine about the book and he had this to say: "Well,God did not tell us so in the Quran" And strange as this may be , that was it.

Hany hit the nail right. God judges us by our intention. He punishes those who are unrepentant. So it follows that even if one commits a sin intentionally but soon realises and asks for forgiveness he receives God mercy. Now we can commit sin throu…

Below are some verses that have made clear pronouncements against drinking. I lifted the points from another document on similar issue. 1 Corinthians 6:10 lists drunkards among those who will not inherit the kingdom of God. "Know ye not that the un…

Hi Hardyakka, may I suggest you look again at Kristina 's post, match it against Jesusiskingokings response then you will see your point and that is not different. What I suppose the kids what to know is why the offsprings of Gehazi should suffer fo…
-
Thanks all. The way I see it is the way Orthodox puts it without having to make unnecessary complications by making mathematical assumptions that we can't support. If it is idiomatics that puts to rest the case. Any thing elsecan be confusing.

Kristina, Sorry I had to cut and paste all below for the benefit of those who may not be immediately with internet at their disposal. "....20 But Gehazi, the servant of Elisha the man of God, said, Behold, my master hath spared Naaman this Syri…

Hi Kristina, This is a hard one as Elisha’s action appears to go against the teaching of the scriptures. I find the response of Jesusiskingofkings very appealing and logical. For it is written that who ever ask he shall be given and who ever seek,…

All the people mention are not ordinary people like you and I. These are men God had empowered spiritually. I do not contest those....I am saying can you or I attempt this feat today?

Hi Minagir, I do not know which of my questions you are referring to but will how ever attempt some answer on the two discussed here. First of all, questions for knowledge seekers are a continuous process. My question on the issue of 3 days & …

Job is sure a very good example of human endurance and steadfast in faith with God. And I am sure there may be a couple more even in our time. The temptation I mentioned was to stress the import and crucial timing with the fasting Christ observed fo…

The world is like a school, you go to class, the teacher teaches and you are tested until graduation. Each test that comes adds to your cumulative grade. Now in school just as we find group of friends bounded by social class or taste, there are othe…
-
Hi Igbal, given all the explanations and the fact that we as humans lack or are in no way near Christ powers and abilities, would you say this test can be endured by any man. In simple language, are we suppose to emulate Christ in this respect i.e. …
-
Hi Orthodox, it did and more. This is one of those explainations that not only ans but settles ones mind. As for my dear Minagir, do not be tired or impatient with questions or queries concerning God as long as there is an interested person. You ju…

I am sorry about your name miss up and the caps....it is not inteded to show urgency or to stress...I was lazy so did not bother to change. And as regards my posts, all are on issues I find challenging that I am unable to read and grasp on my own. …

Hi Katrina, check this FRIDAY THERE IS 1 DAY AND 1 NIGHT SATURDAY 2ND DAY AND 2ND NIGHT BY SUNDAY MORNING CHRIST HAD RISEN. SUPPOSE LIKE COPTIC EXPLAINDE WE TAKE THE MORNING AS A WHOLE DAY, THERE IS NO THIRD NIGHT?
-
Thanks Copticboy, but the three nights aint complete. And Katrina, reaing between lines means appreciating every word. Just like Coptic tried to analyse.

Matthew 12:40 (New International Version) New International Version (NIV) 40For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

Hi Meena, the first and best help is to learn your scriptures well. Concentrate on understanding all the tenents of Christainity as all the challenges will centre around these and events that led to them. For example, Trinity,Atonement, Ressurrectio…
-
Thanks Sorehearted, your explainations put to rest any doubt as to what is truth and false and how to determine when God is calling on His faithfuls. It follows that when you get to know a person, then you can almost and always know his or her ways…

You are right in your position that the deveil keeps tempting but like I said, your weapon against this is learning and appreciating every commandment...by this I mean understanding the applications and implications. If you go back a little to read …
-
I feel and know this is very possible. First one must find and know God. Having achieved this, one must learn, understand and observe HIS commandments. Knowing and appreciating God s commandments is one of the greatest source of spiritual strength …

Yea there are lots of lessons I learnt in Mr Nick, Minagir. I learnt the power of understanding that what you dont have which you so desire ,God sure has something better for you. You ever heard the story of a poor guy who tried to commit succide be…
