  • [quote author=Godislove260 link=topic=7881.msg102484#msg102484 date=1241257518] [quote author=Amoussa01 link=topic=7881.msg102478#msg102478 date=1241226997] Just a quick comment. We are NOT arabs...arabs (moslems) are the largest group of people tha…
  • No there isn't, they have it "locked" so you can only stream it.
  • [quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=7847.msg102307#msg102307 date=1240780643] As far as I understand, and in my own experience, a reader should not wear a stole at all, a subdeacon has it crossed over, and the deacon has it over the shoulder. …

  • I know wagdi bishara recorded it and it used to be on this site but its more instructional then an actual liturgy. You may want to contact him or i can get it to you if you pm me.
  • Before the story of Babel there was only one language, after God saw how wicked men had become He said, Let Us go and confuse their language and spread them all over the earth. So thats basically what happened. Lol don't believe evolutionists.
  • Happy Birthday Matt! Hope its a blessed one!
  • If the general funeral is held right after the Liturgy of palm sunday then yes that is what the pope said. He said its still the day of Palm sunday so the rite is still joyful. He also said that the funeral should be held later when the rites of hol…
  • Thats not necessarily true since he himself was not excommunicated, As far as I know SOME of his doctrine was considered wrong but not all and like i said he was not excommunicated. I would for sure ask your FOC to be on the safe side whether you sh…
  • [quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=7837.msg102027#msg102027 date=1240259101] I am not sure. All of our different Orthodox Churches seem to have younger lads who serve and who are admitted to one of the minor ranks. It seems to be fairly standa…
  • Thats because the channel you saw it on probably put it on not and was not actually there, i've seen this done a few times so i don't think it was a real dove
  • [quote author=QT_PA_2T link=topic=7824.msg101917#msg101917 date=1239880527] [quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=7824.msg101914#msg101914 date=1239874783] QT, is that so among all Coptic priests? I am not Egyptian, but I am a priest of the Copt…
  • In everything I've read, Avchnon is always said in the same shami tune as pekethronos. The tune is said 4 times. First time on tue in the 11th hour of the day which is pekethronos. Thur eve 3rd hour, 1st hour day of thur and of course 12th hour of G…

  • Women are for sure not looked down upon by our faith, culturally possibly, but faith of course not. Everyone has their own duty in church and we are all one body in Christ. The discussion about why women can't be deacons has been discussed to death …

  • Yes that is right, if read in coptic it stays with the rest of the prophecies tunes, but if in arabic or english(or any other language of interpretation) the tunes vary greatly and there is not one set tune for that.
  • This is the tune: http://tasbeha.org/media/index.php?st=Hymns/Holy_Week/Higher_Institute_of_Studies/cd1/track_05.1685.mp3
  • Hey Mahraeel, Here are a few quotes that I love about fasting.  "What good is it if we abstain from eating birds and fish, but bite and devour our brothers?"-St. John Chrysostom "Let us fast an acceptable and very pleasing fast to the Lord. True f…
  • Confession is technically a requirement before you take communion. We are supposed to be pure in body mind and heart before communion. There isn't a requirement it be that day, but in general it should be before you take communion. These days lately…
  • Amazing, God rest her soul, and have mercy on us sinners, no one knows the day of their death, hopefully we are all ready...

  • Im not sure on that detail from what i understood of what she said that she happened to be in a car behind them or something. You could be right though, thanks for the correction
  • These are questions that only God can answer, He instituted them Himself, If He instituted them, surely they are of great importance. If you remember in Genesis, God "covered" Adam and Eve with animal skin, How did He get that animal skin? He killed…
  • This was a true story and I heard it from tamav myself. They were not martyrs though. I believe it was just an accident. Anyway, the story is that there was a group of kids going from Old or New Cairo to go serve people less fortunate than them. On …
  • Very good questions Qt, from what I've learned to answer your first question is that because these animals where only meant for temporary remission of sins and a prototype for Christ Himself. Because the punishment of sin was death, death was requir…
