The Ten Commandments 1.0
The Ten Commandments were not given just forthe days of Moses the Prophet, nor for the olden times only, butthey are for all generations. till heaven and earth pass away, onejot or one tittle will by no means pass (Matt. 5:18).Yet, Christianity gave the commandments a certain concept thatcoincides with the sublimity of the New Testament. Thus, theCommandments remained without change but with a broader concept asGod allows with His Grace through contemplation.True indeed are the words of David the Prophet: "I have seen theconsummation of all perfection, But Your commandment is exceedinglybroad." (Ps. 119:96).H.H. Pope Shenouda III, Coptic Pope of the Patriarch of the Seeof St. MarkPlease, follow me on twitter @Christservant10 to get updatesabout the new books

She loves the whole world,longing for the perfect salvation of every body.This is the spirit of the whole treatise which, under the guidanceof the Holy Spirit, sustained by the Holy Scripture, the Patristicthought and our church liturgies, I hope to discuss.FR.

The Spiritual Man 1.0
Perhaps this question is addressed to everyperson:Who are you?

The Epiphany & St John Baptist 1.0
While we celebrate the glorious feast of theEphiphany, we are gladto stop sometime for meditation:The feast of Epiphany is the feast of Baptism ......This feast is also called the feast of the divine manifestation(theTheophania).Because the Holy Trinity appeared in it: The Son is baptised,TheFather says from heaven: "This is My beloved Son, in whom I amwellpleased", and The Holy Spirit appears "like of a dove" (Matt. 3:16-17).Hence the baptism of the Lord Christ shows the creed of the HolyTrinity.H.H.

These lectures began as part of a course oncomparative theology as requested by the Theological College, in1978 and then completed in 1981.Some of these lectures had in factbeen attacked by the Plymouth Brethren denomination in variousbooks, which opposes the fundamental sacrament of priesthood.Their oppositions are based on two grounds:1) The claim that there is only one priest in heaven and on earth,and He is the Lord Jesus Christ.2) The incorrect interpretation of the verse which says:(Rev 1:6) and has made us kings and priests to His God and FatherH.H.
