Quick question.
How can Jesus practice a consitition (ablution, shahada, mecca, Ramadan, Hajj) that DIDN'T EXIST in His day?
Even more, how can One who is claimed to be the greatest prophet in Islam commit such a sin as calling God Almighty Father?
Isa didn't call God "ABBA".
Jesus did. He called God "ABBA".
Two different people. π.
The Torah and Injil are older and have far more manuscripts to authenticate. Historical accounts also exist to prove Jesus said what He said.

Geek mode. I'll set the foundation of my point on Newton's first law.
"An object in motion stays in motion (and an object at rest stays at rest) at the same speed and in the SAME DIRECTION unless acted upon by an unbalanced external force(the abroad context)."
Contexts have shifted. Back home certain operational realities allowed for some perks.
It all falls on the individuals to RECOGNIZE and ACCEPT that contexts have shifted and be WILLING to adapt accordingly with the least friction possible(this is where they are exposed..lol)
The adaptation is the hard part.
Some learn fast. Others, not so much so.
This thing also requires grace from both partners. For some the shock is something else.
Variances in time to process and adapt is where couples need to show grace to one another.
@msmocrown Just a simple comment. Nothing more.
They'll need to be here to see the opportunities.
From doing the same as they've been doing to leveraging the benefits of their PR for better qualifications etc.
Best if they're here on the ground to network and connect directly.
@SolaTheAnalyst There's a warmth in Africa, and it's not the sun. It's the people.
Canada is cold. Cold but effective -mostly. π.
Again, it's why you must help the kids grow around the culture. They'll learn best of both worlds.
