  • actually, its the same symbolism as when the preist and the deacon circle the altar with the cross and gospel right before the reading of the gospel.  It means that together the preist and deacon are both helping spread the word of God. Hope that he…
  • out of all respect, ibrahim ayad is an extremely well taught man.  He definately knows more hymns and about hymnology than I or anyone else here probably.  However, he plays around with the lahn way to much if i do say so myself.  Maybe its just a h…
  • good point, that makes total sense, i was trying to figure it out briefly so i guess i didnt think of that, thanx again. -pete
  • Thanx alot minagir, and sorry again, im bothering u guys with another question, lol.  You know how when the third hoos is said, the refrain only comes in every three verses afterrr the 7th verse.  meaning it starts after the 9th.  Is there a reason …
  • ya all that is true, ya well im going to go watch this thing right about now, however right after it is a "critical look" on the show.  hopefully this will reverse this guy's effects on everyone.  thanx again people.
  • Thanks alot coptic boy,this is exactly the stuff i need.  Quick question though, just for my own common knowledge, lol, you know in the 1st hour gospel and psalm how we split it in pascha tune and the anual tune, is there a certain point where the d…
  • Ya actually just today i read a few online articles that say many of the same things that you guys have said.  Its definately not true, logically, scientifically, and through our faith.  One thing that made the most sense to me is that their basis b…

  • Ya it was at eccyc, but it wasnt during the lectures. the lectures are always posted, but it was a sermon during the mass after the bible, so im not sure if it was recorded like the pothers or not.
  • Hey guys, by the way since were on the topic of the da vinci code, today is the departure of st mary magdaline. Anba david gave a short sermon about her and how there is now wayt hat the things that people claim about her are true. I think itl be …

  • hey esakla, well ya our method is different from catholics. First there is a vote to pick 3 bishops from the holy synod. After these 3 are picked there names are placed on the altar with one blank card and there is a long mass prayed (not sure whe…
  • hey guys, by the way about this guy, no one even takes him as a threat. The issue isnt that people will start to beleive this guy, the issue that even H.H. talked about was how people might be tricked into thinking that he is part of the coptic ort…

  • Well i didnt really have enough time to read all of the posts, but i saw this video yesterday that is really really good. Its made by a catholic guy/preist and it shows how totally false the divinci code is through history and biblical terms. The l…
  • as orthodox11 said, melchisedek was actually a symbol of christ. he had no earthly genealogy (just like christ since he was begotten of the father) and he also gave abraham the bread and wine, symblizing what christ gave us as his body and blood. Y…
  • actually myspace in itself isnt bad, there wasa an interveiw done about amonth ago with abouna dawoud abotu this. He says its just like anything else on the internet, it can be turned bad. He actually sees no problem with it, as long as u use it …
  • Actually, the catholic church as a whole does not beleive in her as a coredemer or anything. The only thing is this beleif of imaculate conception, in which they don't neccessarily raise her to the level of a god, but to the level of a heavenly hos…
  • Ya, and dont rely on those signs such as the moon and stuff, because it also says in revelation that when you find out whats happening, if you are on the roof of your house, you wont have a chance to even get down from it. So ya you have to be read…
  • Also during tasbeha, we change the tune for the psali of our lord (aikoti ensok) to a farayhi tune. Im not sure how i can explain the tune, and i cant find any audio files of aikoti with this tune, but ya if u hear it in tasbeha, u will notice a di…
  • Thanx so much mg ur a life saver -pete
  • There isnt really any difference betweent he KJV and the NKJV, except what Gods Kid just said, words liek thy and your. That is why our church uses the NKJV but, they do not discourage using the KJV if you are able to understand it.
  • Well ya we do it somewhat the same way that minagr, but its not really 2 choruses, its just we have 2 leaders, one on each side, and they rotate between verses, which is how its suppose to be done. As far as the trianto and the def go, we do the sam…
  • hello trusting in god, i think i know about the church your talkign about. Its fairly new if im thinking of the same one. Theres a miracle in the history of that church. When it was first built, the pope assigned a preist to it, and he would alwa…
  • Well thimon, i know that in my church all the older deacons like the 60 yearold ones make up their own rules, lol, so ya u see a lot of them wearing their badrasheen that way, but ya onlya a full deacon or archdeacon should wear it liek that, and c…
