The intercession of the angels and their friendship to the human race and their help to mankind is an orthodox doctrine rooted in the Coptic Church. Father John Naseef, the priest of the Church of Our Lady of Chicago, in his article Intercession of the Angels , tells us about some of Origen s quotations about the intercession of the angels.

They love their homeland and have a great sense of nationality even though they don t listen to the national anthem on daily basis as Egypt s Minister of Health sees a recipe for nationality! I am talking about a group of Egyptians who traveled to Russia to enjoy the world football cup. Yet, they had a special way of cheering which is by wearing Pharaonic costumes and stand for 6 hours daily to take photos with football fans from around the world and to give them souvenirs.

Perhaps, as President al-Sisi said yesterday at a graduation ceremony for students of military colleges that the war on Egypt comes from inside. There are people who want to topple this country and those have launched 21 thousand rumors in three months. Such a number in a country that is working on economic reform and democracy as well as strong state institutions may have negative effect. We are well aware that the Muslim Brotherhood are the main beneficiary of that evil action since they seek destruction of Egypt.

On July 23, 1952, a number of Egyptian army officers who called themselves the Free Officers, overthrew the regime founded by Muhammad Ali al-Kabir that ruled Egypt since 1805. Mohammed Ali was a member of the Albanian army and worked as an officer under the Ottoman caliphate and succeeded in reaching the rule of Egypt. He established the modern state of Egypt. Mohammed Ali knew how to choose his regardless of religion or origin. Under his ruling, Copts and Armenians reached the highest positions based on their efficiency.

The Last visit for president Sisi to Sudan was remarkable and we should stop and analysis this visit especially that the relationship between Egypt and Sudan wasnt the best in the last years. There is no doubt that Sudan is very important to Egypt and the vice versa, Egypt is very important to Sudan in many ways. Egypt and Sudan share many national issues like water, security, terrorism and illegal immigration.

The Holy Bible says: Your hands have made me and fashioned me; Give me understanding, that I may learn Your commandments. The Hands of the lord has saved us after we were exiled from the paradise of joy. His hands save us from despair and corruption to make our existence meaningful and give value to our life. Moreover, his Hands protect and lead us into salvation. His powerful Hands support us and heal our sicknesses and injuries. His Hands keep us up and never go astray. We are made his children in the baptism and he feeds us his flesh and blood. He takes our hands to teach us how to minister as we should and to save what has been perished. He will also not reject the works of his hands, for he is good and merciful, and his mercies endure forever.

His care for the poor and the needy were beyond the limit. He suffered too much and kept very few for himself. He is Bishop Abraam of Fayoum, the friend of the poor.

We hear in the Middle East many accusations to women that they are created from a crooked rib and if we want to fix it, it will be broken! In the Holy Bible, it is mentioned that Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. )Genesis 1:31(. She was made perfect human being and was brought to Adam. Other people claim that Christianity also commands men to rule over women. Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. For the husband is head of the wife, as also Christ is head of the church. (Ephesians 5: 23) Yet, they ignore the rest of the chapter where St. Paul talks about love Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her (Ephesians 5: 25) it si a matter of love and sacrifice and not ruling over.

Sometimes people tell you this word “Keep yourself busy”, however, you might think about his word deeply and say, what does this mean? Does it mean at work that you need to keep working and not let anyone feel that you are not busy so they don t fire you? Or does it mean be busy so you don t feel bored at home. Many and many thoughts could come to your mind when they say this word. Unfortunately, we have wrong idea about how things work in the west and we just try to entitle ourselves and say we wish to be like the developed countries.

When a Muslim man attacks Christians in a church or even on the streets using a white weapon, he is described as mentally ill. And when a Christian man shares an insulting post to Islam on social media, he is described as naïve and ignorant who don’t know how to use smart phones. Yet, in both cases the Copts pay an extra price just for being Christians! The same scenario was repeated this time in Menbal village, Minya province where a Young Coptic man was arrested on charges of insulting Prophet Mohamed and Islam by sharing in appropriate post on social media. Soon, fanatics of the village had gathered and attacked houses of the Copts in the village to punish them and express their anger at the unforgettable insult for Islam!

In the Parable of the Sower, the farmer went out to sow and did not care about the hard land or the hard hearts. He did not stop at a land where the plants had no root, but sowed his seeds with all generosity. The hearts with thorns of Lord s beloved ones injured his hand. He abandoned his glory and came to this land. Indeed, he was overcome by his love till he reached the cross.

The new technology added by Tariq, 38, who works as an engineer in Saudi Arabia, has encouraged many foreign companies to contract him to produce this robot, but he prefers to produce it in Egypt.

God created man and made him in the image of Himself. Therefore, death can t be the end of man, but a bridge to reach eternal life. I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death. (Hosea13: 14) Father Benjamin of Moharraq monastery said In his article The Faithful Foundations of the Saints apparitions said that God is god of the living and when Jesus Christ talked about Lazarus he said he only slept since good people don t die, but depart for another life.

Many people think when they have their health that they will live forever and they will be always like that and they never think one day that they might get sick or not be able to do things like before. Unfortunately, being healthy all the time is a grace but not always good, because it let the person do many wrong things and continue doing that until his body got rebellion on him and start feeling sick and at this moment only will remember how healthy they were.

They are two football teams called the tiger and the white horse. The players are former cancer patients whom have overcome the deadly disease.

The commandment of fasting is the first commandment given by the Lord to Adam when he told them not to eat from the forbidden tree. Fasting is a critical commandment of the Lord Jesus Christ for a complete and acceptable worship, and whoever does not fast with an acceptable excuse deserves a punishment. Bishop Mataus, head of the Syrian monastery, said in his article about the fasting of the apostles and the Sacraments explained to us the connection between fasting and communion as not fasting with the church prevents Chitins from taking communion with the church as well.

The new Minister of Tourism in Egypt has reduced the rank of the project of reviving the path of the Holy Family from A to D which means it is not within the priorities of the ministry. Therefore, the project may stop due to her decision. I find the decision detrimental to Egypt s status on the world tourism map. Consequently, Egypt will lose billions of dollars annually from the pilgrimage of all Christians in the world who will come to visit these holy places. Moreover, such project reflects coexistence between Muslims and Christians in Egypt after the Vatican has adopted the path of the Holy Family in Egypt on the map of religious tourism, which means that more than one billion and three hundred million people will recognize it and millions of people will visit the Holy Places for the benefit of the Egyptian economy.

Lately the US president Donald Trump announced new Tariffs on the European countries and Canada; he claimed that European countries and Canada exploited the generosity of US by allowing their products to go to US meanwhile, forbidden the US products to be sold there. This battle was very clear during the last summit for G7 in Quebec when the US president left the meeting early and before signing the statement of the summit, following by criticizing the Canadian prime minster “ Justin Treadue”. In fact, no one can deny that president Trump is different from any other US president, not just because he defens the US interests but because he doesn’t mind to turn his friend to be enemy as long as that will serve the interests of the united states. But the main question here is; will Trump continue on the same approach or will he try to change it in the next coming years? In conclusion, we can say that the world witnessed lately a lot of changes that might change the future of the world and all countries need to be ready for that change as it seems that everyone slogan will be me first.

As Father Makary Younan, the prominent Coptic priest, received a question about the second coming of Lord Jesus Christ, he said we are seeing more and more signs which prove it is at hand. He connected the transfer of the American Embassy to Jerusalem and the talk about building the temple of Solomon. Furthermore, he said that the mark of the beast He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. (Revelation 13: 16)
