Thank you for your presentation. A question: Eastern religions, such as Hinduism, teach that there is something divine in each person. This is testified for example by the greeting "Namaste" - the divine in me greets the divine in you. I see a correspondence here to what is implied in the Genesis narrative that purports that men was fashioned in the image of God and then being 'in-breathed' by him. Yet you say that the Spirit of God left men after the fall. I find it difficult to reconcile these ideas, but don't think it is impossible. Could you offer your perspective on this? Regards from Germany.
Once again Father Anthony, I thank God for "Coptic Orthodox Answers" and for you. Prayers continue.
Beautiful, Devastating, Father Anthoney Projecting Grace ...Thank you!
Blessed Pentecost to you all. Grant you many year Fr Anthony.
Amen Amen Amen
