You mean praxis, Praxeonton....that is not really considered a hymn....it's a reading and it doesn't have to be said in it's entirety. Like you can say the erepo esmo part in the long shere (praxis response)...and there is also a hos erof section (i…
Hmmm. well, M Gad has teoi enhikanos longer:http://tasbeha.org/mp3/Hymns/Fasts/Nativity/Cantor_Gad_Lewis/Midnight_Praises.html
I think Abouna Metias has teoi around 37mins. M Tawfik I think is around 40 mins too
I still like the full alli-elorban …
You miss understood me. I didn't say, not play at all. I said learn hymns and then play. And if you end up not playing, then that's fine. That won't make you any less of a deacon. It's disrespectful to the rank for someone to play the deff while not…
The Commemoration of the Saints is already set and can't really be changed and it is not for all the Saints...if so, it would never end. It only includes specific figures of the Church and saints that had made a big affect on the church. You can eas…
I am only saying what the Church teaches and what the Church says about the new age doctrine. Even if people dont understand the issue, that's the blessing of obedience. The Church had theologians discuss this issue and they have said that it is a h…
People, CHILL@minasoliman, let's concentrate on Fr.Bishoy's PhD topic and what he may or may not do at the church he serves...stay on topic.
@copticmission, studying for a PhD doesn't give you an ultimate pass or authority over topics outside of tha…
I kind of answered this already in my own view and it is what I was taught:An additional question, if I may: do Copts believe that anyone outside an Orthodox Christian tradition is damned, ipso facto?
Please do not ask me that and expact a simple se…
Ana mish Basha, and Bek :-).....since I just discovered that I comment in a whole new language that everyone may understand in this world except you Zoxsasi.
To not let you continue in your usual hijacking process of discussions that is clouded wit…
lol Mina,
I said clearly that your comment reflects the Church and probably a few priest's opinion too. You are probably just echoing the general view of the Synod - not that I agree entirely with it.
Correct me if i'm mistaken here, but you said in…
@Zoxasasi....happy Sunday to youI'll be direct and I expect direct answers....
Although Minatasgeel probably describes the attitude a Coptic priest would take concerning this issue, it doesn't necessarily mean that ANY of this is correct!!!
No. This…
sadly, no. This is the main issue in everything microsoft related now. The only way out of it is to turn the fonts into Unicode which I have started working on but got stuck at coding the opentype features.
I am wondering if this is a file in Microsoft office or any of the Microsoft pack 2007 or newer....because that doesn't work with coptic text and jinkums. I think word changes the space before the jinkum to a non breaking space, which brings the who…
@RomanNomad...Apostolic succession means nothing if what the Apostles have set, preach and handed down is not the faith and doctrine believed and lived...we are moving away from your question and getting into comparative theology...and it looks like…
@Zoxsasi...I have to totally disagree. Unfortunately, we DO NOT have the same faith as the Catholics. We don't really believe in the same Christ since our views of His nature are not the same. This just something general without considering a lot of…
Regarding #1, are you sure that attendance at any Coptic liturgical service is forbidden for an excommunicate? I have attended Coptic services before; was I welcomed because I was merely an outsider—as opposed to being one who has deliberately rejec…
Hey Roman,
Welcome to the forum.
This is an interesting case you have here but it looks like you know enough already about the step that you and significant other are trying to take. Here are my own comments For:
1) Your assumption is right--she wil…
Youssef_Habib,It is actually not that hard all you need to do is right click on the player and select save as... But I do agree with you it is harder than before.God Bless
Of course I did that, and just did it now to confirm before I post my reply,…
About Maspero, i might be biased to say that we just need to "not talk about it." Just for the sake of progress int he future. Ya3ny we know what happened, the government knows what happened and what was the mistake. But then we don't want to really…
@moderndaypharaohI think you are making a big deal out of it. NOTHING of such statements is being taught in churches. Concerning HGB Boula comments, i really think he said it by mistake. I think he meant to say that El-Sisi was the 'angel' and Chris…
No. The decision is official but we on tasbeha didn't upload any files for the sources refernced. We are not in direct connection to that committee. The info on the homescreen was translated from the arabic that was shared on facebook.
And yes, Davi…
Actually, you do need a marriage certificate from the state to get married in the coptic orthodox church. I can get more details from my church father home when I see him but I believe that the order of things to do is this:-Register with civil regi…
