  • http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php?board=11;action=display;threadid=7521;boardseen=1 i think ophadece answered your question here when answering the other question
  • yea i have all those they are nice but i would really like a gregorian liturgy for either priest, actually for abouna anthony a basil liturgy would be nice considering they dont have anything for him on the site at all.
  • I'm Pretty sure illegitimate means outside of marrige, and i'm not 100% positive that it said he did marry haggar, and i was just guessing.
  • I'm going to say something and a lot of you will disagree, but I'll say it anyway, Evangelizing IS important, but it is not necessary for the survival of the Coptic Church, or any of the Sister Churches. If you believe that it is necessary for the C…
  • God promised a son to abraham and it wasnt ishmael, ishmael was illegitimate, so i assume because the son was not sara's as well, so i guess because it wasnt the child that was promised by God then God considers it Haggar's son not Abraham because a…

  • [quote author=coptmorous link=topic=7481.msg98709#msg98709 date=1229990892] I can answer one of your questions. The mass of St. Basil is directed to God the Father, The mass of St. Gregory is directed to God the Son, and the Mass of St. Cyril or St.…
  • do you know the alhan? when you know the alhan then learn the def. it is used for keeping beat not for a show. a simple beat is more than enough, if it is played in an over enthusiastic way it distracts. but again learn the alhan, then the def. eith…
  • Allah is God in arabic, the muslims have just taken it as a name to their God, but Allah means God, so islam, takes the word Allah and says it is the name of their God, which distorts it in everyones name and it makes it seem like almost a bad word …
  • Also the symbol in the old testament of Melchizedek who offer bread and wine as his sacrifice.

  • [quote author=coptmorous link=topic=7455.msg98494#msg98494 date=1229557511] He is not a Nazarene as Im sure some people will say, but he is from Judea. Bethlehem was a city in Judea [/quote] He is a Nazarene, He is Jesus of Nazareth, and I many chu…
  • Honestly, I will admit myself that the best way to find all the right answers to these questions is by finding the oldest book, or the Holy Synod comes out with a book to end these disputes because I asked another person who said in his arabic khidm…
  • Ok listen, I have been reading this thread and the study of Evolution and the Bible is very complicated, you need to come to the realization that this takes at least a year to study and get right, you will never find a full, perfect explanation of h…
  • all of the above is right, I just think Mina has had to say that so many times that he is sick of it, but yea, he is right, It is taken out of context, something protestants LOVE to do. It is their favorite thing, take one verse and ignore the other…
  • [quote author=minagir link=topic=7433.msg98223#msg98223 date=1229047377] [quote author=Hisservant link=topic=7433.msg98221#msg98221 date=1229047144] thats pretty close, this is a joyous fast and our Lord always ate fish, most of the time thats what …
  • thats pretty close, this is a joyous fast and our Lord always ate fish, most of the time thats what He was eating, so we allow this food
  • Euthanasia is wrong- Christian or not, everyone has morals, and if you don't want to consider it suicide then it is murder, very simply put. Think about it, if I have your consent to kill you, does that make it right? That's why police try to stop p…
  • sometimes I wonder, a post for the sake of a post? I disagree. I think it's dumb that people say happy holidays, and that they call it a holiday tree when it isn't associated with any other holiday...but there are a lot bigger things than merry Chri…
  • Its funny, Bishops tell us to stay away from these time wasting sites, now we are wasting time in the name of God! Nothing has changed, facebook has those saint features as well, the difference between this and facebook is that it is Coptic oriented…
  • funny story, i was told that the reason we fast 43 days is 40 for the birth of Christ and 3 just for this, originally these 2 fasts were seperated but were add together later on in the church to make 43
  • but at the same time a lot of them have to do with St. Mary and are reserved for Kiahk "the mary month"
  • I'm not sure if at that point there was a rank of clergy, so at that time he wouldn't refer to clergy if the rank doesnt exist.
  • [quote author=coptmorous link=topic=7398.msg97884#msg97884 date=1228259363] Absolutely nothing to do with the church. Dieting is ok as long as you do not go crzy over it. [/quote] actually it has a lot to do with church, a lot of people use the fas…
  • binC is being a little ignorant, the protestants rejected these books because they did not see them as authentic, the Orthodox church did find the "apocryphal" deuterocanonicall books to be authentic, but there are books that are still not accepted,…
  • In both these posts, Islam was the first religion mentioned, why is that? Are we judging? Perhaps too quickly, the orthodox copts, because of bad experiences have come to say that Islam is a terrorist nation, while a lot of people might agree, I don…
  • [quote author=jydeacon link=topic=7364.msg97556#msg97556 date=1227570200] I think he is asking what the age requirements for a deacon are: Psaltos at least 6 Aghnostos at least 18(i've also heard 16) Subdeacon at least 20 Deacon at least 25 Archdeac…
