what I am about to tell you was told to me by a priest in my church. God does not care where you go to college! If you are IN the will of God then whatever you do will be according to HIS WILL! so what does that mean? it means that throughout the B…

[quote author=Ioannes link=topic=10572.msg128867#msg128867 date=1296357765] Mubarek is supported by US and Jews alike. This is why Obama is taking such a sissy stance, which will end up hurting us in the long run. Amazing how you can be a dictator a…

Omar Suleiman got rid of bin laden's second hand man, al zawahiri. he banned him from egypt basically so i think its safe to say that omar suleiman is not "e7'wangy" lol

lol then u should read it again. all of these questions should be known if you read and understood. If you did not understand the first time then read in again on your own. You say that you are in pre-servants, so if you do graduate and become a ser…

A bunch of people decided to get together to speak out about freedom on the first day of the protest... by the second day, the muslim brotherhood began to take advantage of the protests and these protests began to become violent and chaotic. Im glad…

i have one question for you Christ_rose. do you know the meaning of the word "ORTHODOX"?

singing "Christian" songs in youth meetings and gatherings as stated in the other thread... this disgusts me... when will we truly be ORTHODOX?!

btw, what is the general consensus about giving money to those "poor" people who wait at red lights and ask for your money? I never know what's the right thing to do

Pope Shenouda only wants Copts to pray the 3 Coptic Lituries (St Basil, St Gregory, St. Cyril) because our liturgies are so amazing so why should we use one from another church? I dont think its a matter of which one is better or worse, but rather s…

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=10289.msg125571#msg125571 date=1293548594] My issue is: the rites and the chants are the least of the issues. THE DEACONS ARE NOT INCLINED TOWARDS ANY SERVICE OR MINISTRY. There are very few exceptions to …

in my church you are not allowed to serve as an epsaltos unless you are at least 12 years old and abouna will not let anyone be ordained as an epsaltos in our church until they are at least 12. Pope Shenouda has also expressed his agreement with our…

one time during the readings on Sunday while the church was pretty much full, a teenage deacon got up to the mangalia and began to read. Our priest, who is very strict but very loving, notices that the boy's voice is very faint and that he wasnt hol…

The Orthodox Study Bible uses the Septuagint Translation of the Old Testament. The Septuagint is the most accurate as I am told by my very knowledgeable priest. If you remember in the story of Simeon in the Gospel of Luke, when Jesus was a baby and…

Coptic Orthodox Christians do not believe in the concept of "original sin" we do not inherit sins, we inherent a corrupt nature. also, St. Mary praises God in her song by saying "... O God , my Saviour..." please pray for me and my weakness

doing well in school will not help us get closer to God, but rather doing well in school gives us the knowledge and responsibility of knowing what it is we should be doing with our lives(spiritually and career-wise) please pray for me and my weakne…

we dont consider him a saint, it is an error in the psalmody in the commemoration

actually, it takes a STRONGER person to NOT fight and to turn the other cheek! in other words, we are not of this world. So we can not expect others to understand why we do the things we do. They may take it as weakness, but we know it to be strengt…

its probably just the mistake of someone who spelled Raphael wrong lol
-
its almost impossible to tell, and heres why. the entire liturgy is itself a prayer, and a hymn is also a prayer, so any prayer in the Coptic Church is a hymn! we sing all of the prayers in the liturgy so it really is impossible to tell how many pra…

i think Gamal Mobarak is probably the best choice for the country's sake... he was educated in an American university and is a very knowledgeable person. in terms of the presidency becoming a sort of dynasty, i dont think it would be bad for Egypt b…

in my church is basically "illegal" to become a deacon unless you are at least 12 years old... and the Pope agrees with us!

my priest told us a story once about a monk who was always waiting to be ready to take Holy Communion, the monk would wait week after week saying "When I become holy then I will receive communion, because I am not worthy now" and so on. When an elde…

there is also a Septuagint translation which is in the Orthodox Study Bible. the Septuagint is a more accurate translation so you may like it better
