  • Hi jfarag92, this is a brilliant thread. I wanted to find God, and tried to find him through looking into other faiths. Christianity to me was the one which found God and peace through Love, Wisdom and self discipline. Other faiths seem to find God…
  • Thank you for posting these Ioannes, It is just what i was looking for. May God Bless you and Keep you.
  • Thanks for posting this jfarag92 I have heard of Papa PAOK before, but did not know he was getting in trouble for his actions and notoriety. Was it because of the Yourube videos saying he was God that he has gotten in trouble? Or just for attendi…

  • wow, so I am allowed to eat Fish furing the Apostles fast? I never knew that. And I even went to the fish and chip shop yesterday and missed out.  :-[
  • sorry Minagir, I do not have a copy of the liturgy, but do have videos of the ethiopian drumming and the procession. Procession: Drumming: Thank you for answering this, do you know why they use it? or the Symbolism? I saw that HE Metropolitan S…
  • I believe that the theories of the New World Order are a creation of Satan to set man against man. Why else would someone try to stop the creation of an order which is based on respect and love for eople no matter where they are from?
  • The British Orthodox Church is a church which caters for british people interested in Orthodoxy but who may seem hesitant because of the cultural ethos that many Orthodox Churches have, such as the Greek or Russian Churches within the UK catering to…
  • [quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=8872.msg114778#msg114778 date=1274871410] The key word is "few".  The Oriental Orthodox do not seem to do well in standing with each other. Blessed is Abuna Antonious, Patriarch of the Eritrean Church. [/quot…
  • Hey everyone, I finally got around to writing a summary of the Oriental Orthodox Festival on my livejournal if anyone wants to have a read. It is a bit late, but better late than never. http://dan-mm.livejournal.com/1374.html
  • [quote author=Tishori link=topic=9264.msg114722#msg114722 date=1274670040] Congrats to my new Abouna David!! And the rest of the priests who were ordained :) Here are the details, ordinations and Liturgy Videos. Enjoy :) And thank God, I ended up…
  • Can i just remond people on here from the UK that there a vigil outside the Eritrean Embassy in London (near the Angel tube station) between 3.00-4.00 pm on Thursday, 3 June. It has been organised by a coalition of reputable Christian human rights g…
  • From my personal view (as Fr. Peter has already ststed, the best you will hear on here will be people's personal views) it si to give the enemy or wrongdoer a means of purification. As in the Old Testament to take hot coal seems to bring that. Levi…
  • Did anyone here watch it? How was it? I was on the way back from the Liturgy at my Church when the Pentecost Liturgy was performed in Cairo.
  • [quote author=DimyanCoptic link=topic=9265.msg114704#msg114704 date=1274646328] I actually just learned that today (the varying part) :D I apologize for not giving a well put together answer, but i remember that in the bible He says somewhere "I am…
    in Apostles Fast Comment by DanieM May 2010
  • I most certainly agree with Father Peter on this issue. A Charismatic revival just brings images of personality cults and evangelical groups to mind, especially since that is what they tend to lead to. The Orthodox Church values being humble with …
  • Hi Amazing Kiriacos Mine, and other converts stories are in this thread. http://tasbeha.org/content/community/index.php?topic=8957.0
  • I was born into a secular family and was Baptised into the Coptic Orthodox Church just a month ago.

  • [quote author=Zoxsasi link=topic=9228.msg114366#msg114366 date=1273700748] [quote author=peterfarrington link=topic=9228.msg114364#msg114364 date=1273700230] The Jews thought Gentiles were unclean. Father Peter [/quote] Yes, but do you have any mo…
  • The Jews had strict dietary laws. They consider some foods and food combinations to be unclean. Peter needed convincing to deviate from the customs he was used to, and was offerd fod he was nto sure about becase of these laws he was used to followin…
  • Thank you so much for posting this picture Fr Peter, I have been waiting to see a copy of it but could not find it on the BOC site, though I did find one of me taking communion which was odd. As it was my first communion I think Trevor was told to t…
  • They did not attend, the Armenians had a visit from one of their metropolitans and I am not sure why he Syrians were not there.
  • I greatly enjoyed the festival yesterday, it was great to see the close relationship between the Orthodox Churches here in the UK. I agree with Bishop Angelos' comments that this is what it will be like with heaven, only in heaven it will be in the …
  • Samson was a Nazarite, the same as Samuel. hey were not allowed to cut or comb their hair (technically forming dreadlocks) . They were supposedly renowned for their holiness and piety, and given great strength by God. As for the strength being in h…
  • Just ask her what her point is in saying all this. I have amny friends that use the same old recycled arguements of similarities of practices and holidays between Christianity and pre-Christian paganism, and all I do is ask them what their point is…
  • Surely no. most modern Jews are not descended from the Jews of the old Testament anyway. The jews that escaped Jerusalem after the destruction of the temple numbered a few hundred, whilst a few hundred years later Thousands of Khazars converted, inc…
  • Pope Shenouda is very outspoken against the actions of the State of Israel against the Palestinians and is actively opposed to any normalisation of relations with Israel. He is also against Copts visiting Israel apart from in unavoidable cases. A H…
