    really?! you are using that against him......this verse was towards faith into God and not a language that means NOTHING to God.

    Lukewarmness in anything is unacceptable. Faith should drive all of your life for through it we live, think  and move.


    The language people pray in does not matter. End of discussion.
    If you disagree with this, you must also disagree with other OO Churches, who have never prayed in Coptic. This is logically impossible as we are 1 church. The church transcends language boundaries. If it does not, it means that some people cannot be saved - because of language!
    The only use for Coptic is to preserve our heritage, as westerners are very interested in the concept of heritage, and it adds authenticity to the church.


    The discussion was never about the usage of a specific language. Yo may need to reread the posts to follow what we are talking about.

    Would you please elaborate a bit more? That's a very general statement.
