While I have my own thought about all this, it is the Church's view that, if someone died in sin, they will not pray on them. The most known case of that is suicide. Almost everyone thinks that we don't pray on suicide cases because "they have given…

Hello Alex, Welcome to the forum and it's great to see your interest in the COC. You will to be in direct contact with a priest if you are truly willing to become a believer. So, for the church you mentioned in Portland, is it St. Antonious? If so, …

@monfret. I can never encourage someone who is just converting for the sake of marriage. Consider your salvation and eternity first, and then everything else.
-
@monfret. The rule is as minasoliman said: "a canonical Oriental Orthodox priest" is needed. All other exceptions must come from a bishop.

I donno what do you mean by oikonomia. But you must have a priest to have an altar, a "consecrated" one, to call upon the Holy Spirit to fulfill the sacrament and the union between the two people. There is a reason it's called a 'mystery' and not ju…

Lets see what we can answer:1.) I heard a recording of Ibrahim Ayad teaching the 'Kiahk tune' for the Sunday Theotokia, sounds similar to Pascha concluding hymn (Efnoti Nai Nan). Does anyone know anything about this tune? The recording was cut short…

Before we get into this, I think you are referring to the 'spirit' not the 'soul'. St Athanasius differentiates between those two terms. The soul is the actual 'life' that a human has as well as animals. The spirit is the god-given breath in us and …

The current source of the liturgy text is mainly Fr. Abdelmaseih Salib El-mas'oudi El-baramousi book, which many just call the Muharaq Book. He used a lot of manuscript in putting together his liturgy book for the 3 saints. They don't include mentio…

@Remnkemi....i don't think that's the case. From look at babros account, i think he's a real person :-)

It's in the tune of the hiten ni that most churches say at the end in a longer way. Many believe that's it's just the kiahk way for lobshes.

It's not a hymn. It's a madeha and it's not really that liturgical.

@minasoliman...may this is a good place to ask this...this canon of 40/80 days were also in the old testament. what exactly "nullified" this canon for it to not apply for us anymore?
-
@minasoliman....actually, as of 2 days ago, this is not a "recommendation" anymore but a "decision" which must be followed by all bishops.
-
@minasoliman...i don't think giving birth can be considered an exceptional case. I was baptized three month after i was born. But i do see how it's unclear in the text. Maybe they should of mentioned the actual canon. In any case, it'll be in the ha…

@mnhanna9The canon of 40 days and 80 days has never been for the child. The days were for the mother since she is always designated to be the "helper" (eshbeen) of the child. So the last part of the statement just clarifies that the child can be bap…

@Daniel_Kyrillos...That rank was not "created" by that decision in 1994. The rank has been there for sometime...probably as old as the Psaltos/Psalmist rank. Pope Shenouda just pushed to revive it with the Psaltos rank (which he wrote 2 prayers for,…

Here is a clarification on Pope Francis visit to Egypt and Pope Tawadros:https://www.facebook.com/CopticUS/photos/a.314776355604932.1073741828.281751125574122/331225377293363/?type=1&theater

Hello Daniel24, I don't see your specific case to be considered discrimination. When it comes to marriage, it can't be considered so. Each person chooses another that they want to marry based on specific criteria. A factor into that is the approval …

Interesting point. So here is what I found concerning this:- The original text in Fr. Abdel-Masseh Muharaq book had (that's because the newest version has the edited one): "pianjwj `cnau `nni`apoctoloc" - "هامتا الرُّسُل"--piangog, according to Moaw…

Thanks. I deleted. Anything you find similar to this, just pm me please.

hmmmm. there isn't really a full Bible in Coptic. The Bible has always been read in church through the years rather then a book to be studies or interpreted outside the church, specifically in liturgical services. That being said, we have a couple o…
