Thanks for the quick reply! Someone I spoke to before had guess that it may have been the sagda prayers. Do we know how far back these removed prayers date? I suppose what my main point is that I tend to agree with the Russian metropolitan that li…

[quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=14228.msg163104#msg163104 date=1359763067] The best and most simplied English-Coptic dictionary for Bohairic Coptic is St Shenouda the Archimandrite Coptic Society's dictionary. You can find it at COePA's site here …

Thank you both for your help. I am so happy that you guys were so quick and willing to help me. May God reward your services. PS: Is there any dictionary I could use (that is a little easier to understand than Crum's) that would help me in somethin…

hmm. Thanks for your help. If anyone has any other ideas, that would be very helpful. Maybe I will review the passage and see if I made any errors in transcribing it. Thanks again

The responses should be as you have been saying it until the pope is enthroned on the 18th God willing.

If youre talking about the SUS app, it is off by one day...that's why it says Sunday is the feast of the cross.

This was a practice done in the past in the Church but is no longer the case. We have visitors come and they stay throughout the entire liturgy. The only limitation is that they may not partake of the Eucharist unless they are a member of the Orthod…

I apologize in advance if I overstep my boundaries here, but I would just like to say that I think it would be beneficial if imikhail could post the sources or at least point out to us where they are or could be found. Many people visit this site, s…

The highest ranking clergyman is the one who washes the feet of the others. This is a symbol of how Jesus, being the highest rank, washed the feet of his disciples.

It is definitely festive

At our church we have a list of the patriarchs and they are supposed to be read inaudibly by the deacon in the altar so in a small way this tradition is still practiced

I agree, we as Christians are held to a higher standard. How is our religion different from anyone else's if we don't love like Christ taught us. On to your topic. I think its best to think first about the purpose of debate. If they are asking ques…

If one desires to be a monk, this wish is first discussed with his father of confession who may give the person a wide variety of answers depending on the individual. This may include suggestions to visit various monasteries for short periods of tim…

It was published in the Keraza, but it was a small note that just said something along the lines of "the synod reviewed and made necessary changes to the rites of the general funeral prayer." This is one thing that I would like to see improved. I kn…

[quote author=✞ Khen Pikhristoc✞ link=topic=12983.msg152690#msg152690 date=1330662779] Hey Jamie! Nice to meet you! Thirdly, regarding the meals eaten and 'abstinence' throughout the fast, this is not entirely correct. For example, one is only req…

Father, Would you plan on having exams or would it just be papers to assess the students?

I would love Christology or Church History Father

I will sign up the first day you make it available. Having completed studies at a Coptic Seminary in the U.S. I can tell you that there is a lack of quality, scholarly sources especially in English. Even if you only get a few people to sign up at fi…

Just a note about the staff. The Shepherd's staff is presented to all bishops that are over a diocese by the pope on the day of their ordination. The bishop is supposed to carry this staff whenever he is in his diocese as a symbol of his authority. …

I've been watching this thread and I'm so happy Fr. Peter and others have spoken out in favor of looking at the monks of the Coptic Church for the future leadership. To me, it expresses a lack of faith when we say things like, "how can the monk know…

Hmm I don't think I buy that. You're still saying that you will vote 'Pro-Bible' and against anti-Biblical laws. I understand that the Bible is just a criterion but where do you draw the line? And just because you're vote may not be that of the majo…

[quote author=George_Mina_Awad link=topic=12498.msg146685#msg146685 date=1319648131] Cy86, that doesn't seem to be a contradiction at all to me. Refraining from imposing the truth we know on everyone does not mean sitting back and letting a law pass…

"What becomes murky is the idea that since OUR beliefs are truth, then why shouldnt we impose truth on everyone." We shouldn't impose our truth on everyone because we follow the example of God. He gives us His commandments, but with them gives us f…

I think this gets to my point in the first post. If for example, there was a vote on outlawing abortion, Christians, I feel, should vote for it because it would save lives and prevent evil. The reason this is not hypocritical with getting up in…

aosseily, In a democratic society, people of course are free to petition their governments to take up whatever issue they deem important. For example, Muslims petitioned at the White House to have Shariah Law become the law of the land. Homosexuals…

I listened to the podcast which introduced the issue of "Should Muslims (or any other group for that matter) be free to impose on themselves any rules they would like?" and if you say no, how is that different than the hypothetical situation of if t…

Inspiration is the supernatural action of the Holy Spirit on the mind of the sacred writers whereby the Scriptures were not merely their own but the Word of God. The Bible not merely contains but is the Word of God. The written word is at once perfe…
