By singing Tenen or Teoi in months other than Kiahk and Apocalypse night does not go against tradition.... its still correct ritually to say them in tasbeha. But I see were you're coming from - by reserving them to these more revered occasions, the …

[quote author=minagir link=topic=7312.msg97055#msg97055 date=1226442439] i didn't say they are UNITED yet. All I am saying is that they are, only now, Non-Chalcedonian. [/quote] The Eastern Orthodox Church is seperate from us, and still acknowledge…

The prayers of our Mother and Queen the Holy Theotokos, and all of the choir of the saints be with him. pray for me joe

Nice argument Hisservant. The "peace be with you all" is not from the priests own peace (he is human like us), but from the authority of his priesthood, echoing the words of our Saviour to his disciples (not literally, but symbollically). However, t…

A good point Severus. But surely, asking God to bless us and other people is well within our "limits" as it were? Do we not say in the Holy Liturgy after the commemoration: "Glory to you o Lord. Lord have mercy. Lord have mercy. Lord bless us. Lord …

On a more serious note, Mina I'm 100% sure on this matter that the Oriental and Eastern Orthodox Churches are still divided as we have for centuries.

Choose your friends wisely for: "Avoid every kind of evil." (1 Thessalonians 5:22) and "evil company spoils good habits" (sorry can't remember the reference) pray for me joe

If it very urgent, then at least leave the church to respond; for the Lord's house is sacred, and ought to be dedicated to prayer "For My house shall be called a house of prayer for all nations" (Isaiah 56:7) pray for me joe

Mina, a few corrections. They were Eastern Orthodox Church is Chalcedonian - they conformed to the Council of Chalcedon in 451 Ad, same as the Catholic church, and REMAIN SO TODAY. Vas is correct, we are divided, in 1054 (the Great Schism), the East…

God allows tribulations and trials to affect us for many reasons we cannot understand at the time. God is wise and fair - nothing we pass through is more than what we can bear. With God's help, we can overcome these troubles, as nothing is impossibl…

This is an absolute disgrace - if monks, who are people consecrated to God, people who are the very essence and symbol of piety and ascetism are fighting together like kids in a playground, then it seems incredible that war hasn't been declared betw…

Dear epchois_nai_nan, Of course it is possible to repent! The way out of the sin, granted, is painful and difficult (like fighting any addiction), but IS achieveable with God's mercy. Therefore we can confidently say that salvation is always possib…

Lets us all pray for one another: "Therefore I exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men" (1 Timothy 2) pray for me joe

[quote author=epchois_nai_nan link=topic=7302.msg96799#msg96799 date=1225961146] In short, the question is, is there anything that we can do on Earth that will stuff us up so bad that repentance is impossible even if we want it? [/quote] No sin is …

Thanks mahraeel :)

Clay has got it right, and in continuation of his last sentence, natural human instincts are not all good - the body naturally lusts, be we as mindful servants of God have to fight and control these emotions. In fact, a major difference between us a…
