God and Science

That perhaps becoming a sensitive topic, but I have to! I remember when I attended a virtual discussion with two LDS (Latter-day Saints) missionaries on Zoom. We were almost stuck at a time zone difference. They were from California, starting at 06.00 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time includes Washington state, Oregon, California, Nevada, Arizona, and Northern Idaho). They were hearing fluent in ASL/ American Sign Language. So, we discussed in-depth about religion and science. They believe as it is related, some, apparently saying differently, usually, atheists and agnostics who doubt God's presence. 

In the book of Genesis, you witness how God created the world. God took a rest on the seventh day and became in order in worshipping every Sabbath in Genesis 1: 2-3 and Deuteronomy 5: 12. God made a woman who becomes helper with Adam because He trusted that a man should not be alone, so God made him sleep and took one of his ribs then made into a woman then becomes one flesh in Genesis 2: 18-24. God made the world in His own image in Genesis 1: 27. There are still many verses showing God is a masterpiece and God's creation in scientific proof, a verse that addresses God is a masterpiece and for good works in Ephesians 2: 10. You just need to learn more and deeply. Don't forget to pray before learning it as God will help you easier if you give it all with open hearts. 

Science is wonderful! God encourages you to learn science, so you'll be able knowing how God created the world and how it came up, how happened. You don't need to believe in science, but you need to balance both as well as easier understanding. God created for good works; science has proved. God created for His excuses; science has proven for an excuse. "God made creation in own image", addressing God made the world and plans in his own image. His imagination unmatched human imagination, no one knows His imagination. 

Science and God are balanced and related, working together. However, I highly recommend that you necessarily learn the Bible first before start learning science because where is the first you need to know and feel God's presence. It will make you feel faithful to God and blessed every learning science. But one thing I want to remind is praying.

Praying is a tool for guiding you. You pray and God will hear. You learn, and God will help you. You feel weak and God will strengthen you. You want to surrender, and God will fight for you. So, praying is powerful and helps you to learn science and Bible easier. 

That's not about proving but it's about the truth. Human nature's looking for the truth. That's why you need to pray before taking it further since you need the truth. Neither proving which is wrong nor which is right but looking for the truth. Truth only can answer everything you have been looking for. 

Start praying before taking it further.

Don't forget to pray

Praying is every day and every time

Feeling God's presence

The Idea of Feminism In the Church

A veiled woman lighting up a candle in the Orthodox Church, source: Adobe Stock Roman Catholic Pope Francis appeared a 60-minute on CBS's live-streaming interview with a female reporter, Norah O'Donnell. She was curious in a question towards on him,  " I'm curious, for a little girl growing up Catholic today, will she ever have the opportunity to be a deacon and participate as a clergy member in the church ?" Pope Francis simply, saying, " No ." O'Donnell seemed to trying to push on him about her idea of the progressive and reformation in the Catholic Church. But, thanks God, Pope was strong defending his faith.  This is a 60-minute interview has opened that in fact the pressure of the church reformation has been increasingly happening today. We heard that some churches trying to allow its LGBTQ movement within church life, like the Unitarian church. And, I think some churches have accepted the female ordination, but usually it is Protestant church b

Women, Modesty, and Veiling

(Veiling of women in different era, source: Diaqnoz.Az) " I am Orthodox and I do not agree with veiling " on a comment that recorded on Instagram while posting a reel of female Orthodox veiled at a church and monastery.  I am Orthodox and I do agree with veiling . So, why? The first place, that people may think that we are "sexist" or "pervert" as controlling on female clothing appearances. That's possible because we live in a modern era which is the female rights are more honourable and important in its society. Many girls are independent raised well and having same chances of working at secularism typically careers. But, as Orthodox Christians, who we know that we are about 2.000 years living to equip our Christ looks like in the modern era, which that has been fallen down, especially rising up feminist's movement. The feminism is mainly different from what women have fought for equality gender as surely their aim is to dominate and create the &q

The Pascha, Life Bond, and SO SPECIAL! Orthodox Christianity!

Holy Fire in Jerusalem We typically celebrate the Easter - however that the Orthodox people generally saying that's Pascha - but I felt like that was so special that I celebrated the Pascha in a different Christianity tradition which was unfamiliar to myself, being to live in the country who well-known about Western Christianity. We celebrate the Pascha on a different calendar, it is Julian Calendar so many people wonder that why we are being late celebrate the Pascha and even the Christmas, a week late (between 12-13 days on Julian and Gregorian calendars) from the Western Christians. But, in certain times in history, we celebrate on the same date like 2017 we celebrate the Pascha together with Roman Catholics and it will be happening next year! The Eastern Orthodox is the holy and first church to just celebrated a blessed holy week in last week! Unfortunately, I was unlucky in that schedule as I had a five-day training during the holy week schedule, that caused I had to miss mult
