What church in the UK are you at Zoxsasi?

Welcome to the site Brandon, and hopefully soon to the Church, the Ark of Salvation! May God help you along the way, and if you ever need any questions asked, there are a lot of wise and helpful people I learn a lot from around here :D God bless yo…

[quote author=LondonCopt link=topic=9076.msg113036#msg113036 date=1270830268] This is where things become confusing in terms of history and terminology, but I think your definitions make a good summary. Monophysite is the belief that one nature was…

I think that as long as you pray to God from your heart, and that your prayers aren't only requests for help, then you are not doing anything wrong. But make sure its in context: you might thank God because his arms are always open and he gives you …

Mina nailed it :D

Its not a problem. If you follow the link it names Church Fathers; follow the references, locate the text at monachos.net and you'll have what you need. pray for me joe

I agree with you. And to hear it in the UK is a tad worrying too. pray for me joe

Well, I think by now we all know that these people are preying upon the simple in Egypt, and trying to steal away our members (the example you provided Zoxsasi is not an isolated incident - was it in Egypt by any chance?) Perhaps ignorance of our O…

I don't know if you were after Arabic or English spiritual songs, but I'll give what I know: The audio for "Sons of Martyrs" in Arabic is here: http://st-takla.org/Multimedia/01-Carols/00001-b-Taraneem/Old-Coptic-Nairouz-Taraneem-Collection-01.html…

As others before have said wisely, its about your salvation that you should be worried - you can spend your whole life trying to decipher when the world will end and still get it wrong, whereas you could die and have your life end any second. Which …

I just want to thank God and all of the kind people who prayed for me during my exams - through your prayers God had compassion on me and got me my university offer for next year! Thank you all and please continue to pray for me - the power of praye…

Just so people can get hold of it, the book "Comparative Theology" by H.H. Pope Shenouda II is here: http://www.copticchurch.net/topics/theology/comptheo.pdf pray for me joe

First off, I'd just like to share a verse that describes our faith, and its belief in equality for all before the eyes of God: "There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one i…

I also found a very good article again by His Holiness entitled "Humility among the Virtues" (found here: http://www.coptichymns.net/module-library-viewpub-tid-1-pid-401.html) Humility among the Virtues by H.H. Pope Shenouda III What is humility a…

Thank you perfectsinner, the Fathers truly did speak a lot about this very important virtue :) Here's Chapter 8 from H.H. Pope Shenouda III's book called "Ten Concepts" (you can find it here: http://tasbeha.org/content/hh_books/Tenconcp/index.html…

Ok, I'm currently writing up my notes on "The Nature of Christ" by H.H. There are just a few terms that are technical that I want to clarify if thats ok: Hypostasis - I understand this to mean "person"? So one says that there are 3 hypostases/perso…

I stand corrected, I'm sorry for my mistake guys. Who am I to judge another anyway? I have a long way to go in my own spiritual life, rather than get mixed up with someone else too. pray for me joe

Ah well, there's nothing wrong with getting a debate going - I learn something every time that way :D
-
I agree with you Zoxsasi. I've even heard it claimed by some that even unbelievers like Muslims are in a better state than some of these die-hard evangelicals (difficult to believe, I know) - while the Muslim is in darkness and can be shown the ligh…

I don't think Islamic "martyrs" (read: suicide bombers) will be going to heaven.

And yeah definetely, as I read passage by passage, I'll post my thoughts and questions, and maybe we can get a good old fashioned edifying debate for us all to benefit :D pray for me joe

Haha thanks for all the responses and links guys! I looked very briefly at On the Incarnation, but will tackle it ASAP! Found a great site: http://www.monachos.net/content/patristics/patristictexts Contains a tonne of works by the Father in Englis…
