Χριστός ἀνέστη!

I do not know you, but I recommend staying. This forum is a true gift. Stay, read, learn, and benefit.

Agreed with Abouna. Additionally, sodr seems to think that posts equate to seniority on this forum. I hate to break it to you, but you are wrongly mistaken. It is common internet courtesy NOT to resurrect 3 year old threads... all you are doing is…

In order to give you answers, we need to see specific issues... what exactly is pagan about the Orthodox Church?
-
Provide some examples that state that the Divine Liturgy of the Feast of Nativity is based on pagan rituals.

It's a gift from God. You can't really earn it...

[quote author=ilovesaintmark link=topic=7981.msg103044#msg103044 date=1242172839] I would say that the other Coptics mentioned are famous by some stretch of criteria, but Pope Shenouda III a glory of a man, gifted to us by the Holy Spirit so that we…

SuperMAN, I believe ophadece has already addressed your incorrect translation of "The Christ arose Himself". Please refrain from using this term. Thanks!
-
dumdum, I hope you did not find my comment in the other thread offensive. If so, I apologize. Severus

[quote author=ophadece link=topic=7964.msg102891#msg102891 date=1241990999] Hi SuperMAN(BAM), I strongly disagree with what you wrote "Chirst arose Himself - truly He arose Himself"; don't take Coptic language literally, because your translation mad…

Get on a treadmill and do work, son! ;) Study hard. Good luck!

Vespers Saturday Evening -- Abouna is followed by four young deacons, all carrying crosses, for the Litany of the Gospel. When it comes time for the deacon's response, NONE OF THEM SAY ANYTHING. Another time, I was serving with Fr. Anastasi. H.G. …

I will have to agree with QT. An experience involving rape is already traumatic enough... that sort of abuse is more than sufficient. It can be considered a one-time experience. However, the resulting child is something that is there for the rest of…

Can you please state your concern again clearly and phrase it into a single, rational thought? This might be the first step towards redirecting this small catastrophe of a thread.

My friend, the notion that Harry Potter and the like being bad for you sprouted from idiot Protestant new-age theologians. They are retarded! No need to subscribe to their ideas! The thing is, people hear about this stuff on the news and they get s…

Allah = God Allah in the Muslim faith = God the Father (God of the Old Testament) The words God, Allah, Yahweh, Jehovah, etc., all refer to God of the Old Testament (Who's technical name is Elohim). The faith does not make a difference - 'Allah' …

Khosho il dair ya gama3a. That's all I can say! ;)

Forgive me, but a silly question. The answer is no. Happy New Year! ;)

[quote author=Melchoir link=topic=7480.msg98844#msg98844 date=1230547012] Thank you all! But, do Copts still use the word eVnou for God in private or in churches? Don't they prefer eVnou to Allah? [/quote] No. They grew up saying Allah. I don't thi…

How about we stop worrying about it? It's just a matter of publicity. He is still a priest. Disregard anything else that you hear. We don't want to spread false information. All that matters is that he is still a priest.

Even better: http://tasbeha.org/hymn_library/view/1968 Have fun!

Kefas, I was merely relaying what the local priest said. Interesting to see two ways of dissecting the same verse.
-
Kefas! Welcome back! It's been such a long time... I think we can safely say that the whole community thoroughly missed you! As far as all four sacraments being needed to be 'in', you have a point. Also, I guess you can say that if you are 'in' you…

You are technically in the Orthodox faith if: 1. You are baptized. 2. You have been anointed with the Holy Myron. 3. You commune regularly.

[quote author=Meena_Ameen link=topic=7402.msg97905#msg97905 date=1228335109] Im trying to explain this to a guy as we speak, but he jsut keep saying "But what does the Word of God SAY? 1Cr 11:4 EVERY MAN praying or prophesying, having [his] head …

Let us also not forget that they are casting the crowns of the glory of their priesthood in front of God.

[quote author=QT_PA_2T link=topic=7388.msg97810#msg97810 date=1228100221] Are the sins of protestant people forgiven if they don't confess to priests? [/quote] Clearly, no. Foremost, they don't partake of Christ's body and blood. Confession comes…
