  • The prayers of all the saints man! You'll pull through, have faith!
  • Im taking a shot in the dark here, but could it be trespasses, sins, or transgressions? I mean thats obviously what it is in english, but im thinking its got to be one of those three or something similar, hopefully ophadece can clear this up for us.
  • What everyone has said is correct, I would like to add, that when you feel you don't want to mess up, who are not wanting to mess up for? The people? Or God? If the answer is people you have the wrong idea already, Yes the deaconate is a huge honor …
  • There is no official coptic bookstore. There is of course www.orthodoxbookstore.org and what do you mean the money goes to the church and not them? If you want to have the money go directly to the church then just donate your money. The site i gave …

  • Mina is right, if you say it in coptic, it should be said like any other prophecy in coptic. The different tunes come from priests saying it in arabic
  • St. Mary did not serve in the alter, she served in the temple, there is a difference, In the OT or basically when the temple was still erect, it had different sections, the part you are talking about is where in that time, ONLY the HIGH PRIEST was a…

  • Tishori, you have to understand that the book of Revelation has deep deep symbolism, that simple verse can mean a multitude of things. It can be taken literal or symbolic, which is the way to take it, knowing that this book is nearly completely symb…
  • You really don't have to do that, the only time I personally do, is when he says that and lets Christ give us the blessing, right before the intro to the fraction. But also, crossing yourself is a good thing, you can never do that too many times.

  • [quote author=I Believe link=topic=7734.msg101030#msg101030 date=1237166746] So when we say Christ is the word of God is it meant literally? [/quote] Not necessarily literally, in the sense that He is spoken. But when you take the Greek word Logos,…
  • [quote author=josephgabriel link=topic=7712.msg100975#msg100975 date=1237054329] Personally, I would prefer to sing coptic hymns during the Holy Communion, such as Pioik because I partly agree with ophadece about our heritage and origins. "Madeehas"…
