I would generalize it like this: ' Thru the eating of the fruit in the Garden of Eden sin and death entered the world. Thru the eating of the Holy Eucharist in the Church remission of sins and Light enters the world'. There are many "Types" (pre-…

This sounds like the SBNR (Spiritual But Not Religious) mentality that's running around among many Westerners (especially people in their teens,20's and 30's). This concept says an individual can take little of this and a little of that from each re…

I don't think Sam Shamoun is Orthodox. In the 'Twisting Scripture 101. Pt 1' he says kissing the Cross is a form of idolatry! As well meaning as they are be care careful in framework they're teaching with. The website is a so-called 'non-denomenatio…

In the Name of the Father+ and of the Son+ and of the Holy Spirit+, the One True God. Amen. Basically, we fast because the Lord fasted and said that we should and would be fasting: "when you fast..." Fasting prepares us for special events and sp…

Wikipedia gives an extensive explanation about the Trisagion Prayer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trisagion .Daring to sound like a "theological caveman" (uh-oh, there's the Geico guy again) either Christological or Trinitarian it gives glory to God…

Plus the Council of Jerusalem in Acts 15 states: "19 Therefore I judge that we should not trouble those from among the Gentiles who are turning to God, 20 but that we write to them to abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorali…

Thank you so very much, Abouna Peter for the website. Is it incomplete or does it only include the Fathers accepted by the Coptic Church? Christos Anesti!

The Hebrew term "Torah" means 'instruction, 'teaching', or 'doctrine'. Modern day Jews still refer to the first five books of the Old Testament as the Torah (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy). Pentateuch is a Greek term meaning "five…

Lastly, let's return to the example of the Church as a 'spiritual hospital'. In the Gospel story of the Leper our Lord heals: "12 And it happened when He was in a certain city, that behold, a man who was full of leprosy saw Jesus; and he fell on…

As sin is the barrier between man and God, so forgiveness of sin is the reconciliation of man with God. The importance of the forgiveness of sins by Christ is reinforcedby the fact that the main charge against Him at His trial was His act of absolut…

Awesome!!!!! I love it! May God continue to bless this channel and bring others to the Gospel!!

Ur on the money, guys! "Our Lord rejects the worldly view that He is merely "a good man", at the same time teaching that goodness is in God alone. Then He exercises the duties of goodness by opening the treasures of heaven to the young man, offerin…

Ur correct... and He is teaching us to depend on our Father just like he did! What a wonderful example of humility from our awesome and great God!

Thanks again, Abouna Peter. I can relate with your last post... my wife would agree with you :D!

Oh, The Didache! Awesome reference! It shows how the early Christians worshipped and believed. It's the earliest document after the New Testament showing beliefs and Liturgy. It shows that original "old-time religion which was liturgic and not a Bap…

The Didache or didokia? What's the Didokia?

I am checking which holy fathers called the Lord Jesus the '2nd Adam' or 'Last Adam' (maybe St Ireneus of Lyons?) but the Scripture verses which come to mind that alludes to this is: 1 Corinthians 15:22 (New King James Version) "22 For as in Adam al…
