How did she go into the church and do this? I am talking about the first page video. How was she able to bring people with guitars and start to do her songs? My bad tells me that this video is fake, but it's really hard to fake a video unless you ph…

Fr Peter,
Vassula was excommunicated from the Greek Orthodox church, which seems like a Godsend, but I still wish the Coptic Orthodox church to express her opinion official…
lol, it sounds like he is praying the hymn while playing the flute at the same time. It's a really cool effect but it's not a suitable recording for learning.
the reason is she is a heretic. She says that Jesus and the saints have been giving her messages. She said that anyone who doesn't listen to it doesn't go to Heaven. I think now it will be a little obvious why she was excommunicated.

lol, sorry i posted a little late, i was replying to the first page.
My church is very strict about it because in 1 Corinthians chapter 12/13/14(one of those i think), talks about how women should cover their heads with it.

this is besides the objective of this thread so sorry in advance
is the coptic church doing away with covering head for women and most of its tradition ? is the emphasis on t…
OH! i found it on this website here: http://tasbeha.org/media/index.php?st=Hymns/Holy_Week/Fr_Isaiah_Al_Muharraqi/ouniatk.1682.mp3
but i was wondering if anyone had a good recording because no offense, i can't really make out anything.
Well, an Abouna is a normal person like you and me other than the fact that he devoted his whole life to God. I am surprised to hear about this because in my church nobody does anything like this. This should be addressed because your abouna most li…
Well, habibi, I guess you are old enough, and you know what you are doing (hopefully ;D), I just wanted to make sure that you weren't just slacking off in Lent. May God keep you strong. Amen.

For those who believe that abstaining from TV is going to help their spiritual walks, more power to you. For some of us, TV is the least of our worries.

I agree with TITL, Monk is the best, too bad they stopped making new shows. Also seinfeld was good, but i don't like to watch Fraiser, idk y i am just not comfortable with the show.

Glee isn't a good show to watch during the fast. TV…
Don't worry lightening, we know plenty about protestantism most of us have actually been protestants. We have seen the organization and wisdom of the Coptic Orthodox church in its liturgical worship, iconography, hymnology, writings of the church fa…

Well, here is a really good answer that i heard from somewhere, i forgot:
We cannot say who is going to Heaven and who is not, if we do predict who is going where this means that we are equal with God, which we are not. Only God knows the heart of …

without agreeing or disagreeing with your classification, i would like to say that what makes protestantism distinct from catholicity and orthodoxy is not the view about …
Also the movement of the sholia also has a meaning. abouna makes it go once to the left then to the right then to the middle then a circle. This symbolises the Holy Trinity one in essence.

Hi,
I'm trying to find atrocities committed by the Coptic Orthodox Church - yet I cannot find anything.

exactly.
orthodoxebooks.org is the best resource i have ever had. The amount of books and helpful information is vast it might take like 3 lents to absorb it all lol. You can be sure that any book on that website will already be approved by FOCs.
Zoxasi, you seriously need to chill out. I think the fool is getting to you, lol. The reason why you are talking the way you are right now is because there is a side of you that doesn't want to be told that it was wrong. Of course, what you did at w…
