I'm sorry but it's wrong. St. Anthony would find gold in the dessert in paths no human being has walked on. According to Saint Anthony, it was sparkling so he would notice it in the ground. So he figured satan put it there. After that, he said the f…

mina, your going to drive me insane. In my church the priest is the one who fasts when giving communion to sick people outside church. When washing the vessels, he allows the deacons to drink the water instead of himself. And I've asked my parish pr…

the only person who has an exception not to drink water after communion is abouna and that's only if he's going to a sick person's house or the hospital to give someone communion. However for the general congregation, you must drink water after comm…

Oh yes, for christmas if there is a liturgy in the morning of Jan 6 and a liturgy at night, it's ok. Plus you are taking communion on the 7th since it's after midnight. Minagir, I think you might be wrong on that I'm pretty sure that even if there i…

That's good but it can be very dangerous to think others did worse than me. That can lead to pride. When you take St. Mary of Egypt and St. Moses the Strong as your examples, think of how they corrected their ways rather than thinking that they were…

Ok, I guess I was wrong. But I stand firm on a few things. -Possibly not being allowed to get remarried -Joining the church for the right reasons. There is a possibility that you might not be able to get remarried. Although you'll still be able …

oh, i already saw that too. Thanks though.

We spread Christianitry by our actions not our words. If you want your brother to be good again, you show him through your love for Christ. Love your enemies. Do good to those who persecute you for my name's sake. If he swears at you, say God forgiv…

No doubt what they did took a lot of work and it's great to have. Like I said before, I ordered my copy and I really hope it comes soon. But no doubt also that it would be better to have our own coptic bible translated by a trustable source.
-
yes very true. However, like I said before, I don't think the church will baptise a person who is divorced. Usually the priest would ask you "if you didn't know this person you want to get married to, and new about the church, would you still want t…

I agree with you JyDeacon. I love how it has the lost books and everything however, like i said before, It's missing some verses and it doesn't corespond with the NKJV. I am not an expert in the bible and I will start getting confused if I read both…
-
I have not actually received my version yet, but from what some people on coptichymns.net said that some verses were missing and like some verse which is in the New King James ch. 27 is in the LXX on ch. 37. That's a pretty big issue. BTW, I said i …
-
i'm almost 100% sure you can't get be baptised as a coptic because you're divorced. And like His Servant said, you shouldn't convert just because you want to get married.
-
Lost, I too like Kirmich expected that to be your confession. Here is my advice. Probably confessing that you masturbated to a priest is really hard. Also going to bad websites. Masturbation once started becomes pretty much a habit. I don't real…

you can't just assume a persons sins. That's mean and you could be wrong. Although your probably right since he said that many teens face it, it's still not nice.

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=6212.msg82543#msg82543 date=1203548730] Incidentally, His Eminence [Bishoy], is a Metropolitan and not a Bishop. He is the Secretary of the Holy Synod, and one of the chief and eminent theologians of the Copt…

Lost, it's great that you feel bad taking communion with these sins. But you really need to confess to abouna what you did. LIke JosephGabriel said, it's better to be uncovered in front of abouna and God rather than have it uncovered on Judgement da…
-
Yes, true. Your not supposed to do a metania, kiss the relics of the saints and in egypt some people say you shouldn't be even walking barefoot. Kissing abouna's hand? I'm not sure.

Another thing is that if the priest didn't pray the liturgy then he probably shouldn't be distributing the body or blood.
-
Yes, For sure this is wrong. Abouna Shenouda from Chicago got excommunicated for making announcements during the liturgy. However, there is nothing you can do about it. I wouldn't reccomend talking to the priest about this. That would be kind of dis…

[quote author=Zakhary link=topic=6212.msg82437#msg82437 date=1203442057] I don't know what Abouna Matta El Meskeen has to do with Max Micheal because he disagreed with him completely. Besides, Personally i conside Fr. Matta El Meskeen a saint by al…

[quote author=josephgabriel link=topic=6234.msg82426#msg82426 date=1203417560] PopeKyrilos, thats fair enough that in most places, churches no longer follow the rites of deaconship, and all of the rules that go with it, e.g. only deacons, archdeacon…
-
jydeacon, I know what your talking about. But even in egypt, it's not just the subdeacon who serves inside the altar anymore. All deacons serve inside. SO it's not just here in the states. In my church, we don't have anyone who is higher than an ogh…
-
umm, kinda tough issue. I really don't know what to say. However, I think you shouldn't chew gum if you really care about fasting. The ninivites not only fasted and prayed but they even slept on the floor to show how sorry they were. I think brushin…

[quote author=jydeacon link=topic=6234.msg82333#msg82333 date=1203362281] As ophadece said, children in general(or according to the rites of the church) are not allowed in the alter whatsoever. why? because they have not reached the level in the dea…
-
Like you said before, you can't blame the kids. I solely blame the parents for this problem. Some Egyptian parents have absolutely no control over their children because they don't want to discipline them while others won't let the kid walk farther …

I love Abouna Matta el meskeen. I love his teachings. But I really don't know how you didn't know that these popes were in disagreement with abouna matta. In all the books i've read so far about Abouna matta is that he was partially excommunicated b…

I like this one. You should make a book of these poems and publish it. They're really good.
