i think some of our friends from stevenage may be involved with this production, but am not sure.i will keep you posted.i was there just over a week ago when our lovely bishop anba angaelos became the bishop of the new diocese. i have never seen so …

good advice, mike for Jesus.i can love him more by following his advice than by saying i love him.

hi, yes, this is what most orthodox Christians i spoke to believe:)
-
i am happy to find them in arabic also:) on another note, some people from my church are producing some coptic songs in english.i haven't seen the translations, but i hear they sound good (as you know it is difficult to match the language to the tun…

thanks, can u tell me how 2 get a paper copy of 'melodies'? maybe i could ask church shop 2 order it.

hi, ophadece,thanks for the right words; it is the saviour 'called us', not 'came to us', i am a bit deaf!as far as i know english (>40 yrs speaking it), the word 'carol' is only used at Christmas.do you have the English translation of the list o…

i thought initially you were a bot, as we get some funny ones, but it seems you are asking a proper question. welcome to the website! feel free to look around and learn about God's love for you.i think if you just ask the church in question to check…

my question:does anyone have a link to the arabic lyrics ofاننا فدينا تعل (inna fadeyna ta'ala)i tried st-takla.org, but did not find it, maybe i am spelling it wrong. the english lyrics have 'because of His amazing love' in the chorus, but i woul…

i am no expert, but i'll try no. 5:the aims of fasting and of singing church hymns are slightly different.we fast in order to discipline our bodies and obtain help from God to overcome the sin that tries to attack us.we sing in order to learn more a…

always beware of the opinions of 'historians and scholars'!i know (personally) a protestant PhD scholar who has written his thesis on the Holy Communion.he disagrees with a lot of orthodox opinion, and when I looked what historical sources he was us…

only God knows what happened.may His will be done, and may the people who have suffered be comforted by His light and His truth.

ok, i often wondered where the extra vowels came from!i thought i was singing wrongly!well, i know i make many mistakes in coptic hymns, but now i know this is not one of them!:)

there will be a coptic church in romania? pls tell me more... sorry if i derail yr thread, feel free to move my 'non usa' comments to a separate section. can't help smiling at anba angaelos though, glad he will be in uk long term.
-
how accurate is this website? is it official enough now to congratulate anba angels (of uk) who I will see soon? sorry I don't understand the usa politics but i pray u will all have love, peace and tolerance. anba karas was the first orthodox priest…

both. good to 'see' u here :)

yes, preparing for death is a great way to live your life.do you have access to any of the coptic orthodox liturgies in your language?if so, reading these give all the answer you need.if not, try here:www.copticchurch.net/topics/liturgy/liturgy_of_s…

very well said :)
-
you only 'loose' salvation if u 'had' it in the first place. 2 peter 1 verse 10 and revelation 2 verse 7 make it clear that we need to make our salvation sure by overcoming the evil one. romans 8 verse 39 reassures us that no evil force can take thi…
-
maybe the denominations are being used as proxy arguments when the real differences are the usual marital stresses. may God guide u to be filled with love, submit to God and resist the devil. then the evil one will flee

thanks, i will check it out, have not seen it before
-
does anyone have a recording of pi oik (the bread) in english with the words spaced out in an english way? i mean like 'o-o-f l-i-i-fe' and not 'o-o-o-o oflife'. in fact does anyone have any recordings at all of any good orthodox Christian songs…
-
all images have only limited usefulness.for exemple, if the kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, it does not mean all Christians make great pilau rice (with mustard, cumin etc.) but it means that it looks small but grows into something very big…

sorry, saw this bit late, hope it went well, stay close to Godoujai khen epChois:)

please pray and we will pray for u. please also see your doctor as it sounds like u are very low and a trip to the doctor can often help

see john 15:26 and orthodoxwiki/Filioque adding something to the nicene creed (which was agreed by all the churches including the roman church) was unnecessary. the correct way to alter the creed would have been to summon an international (eccumeni…
-
are u looking for comfort like many people in developed countries? do u read gossip (eg. about other churches?) are u part of the problem or part of the solution? do u go 2 church to seek something familiar or do u go 2 learn how to die for Christ?…
-
let the bishops do their work and we should do our work. eg. if u have transport and time, you can visit other orthodox churches in your neighbourhood from time to time. make friends there. if u are the only orthodox Christian in your village, you …

it is from the septuagint and very, very reliable. if you doubt it, it is like saying you think cocoa is fake because it does not taste sweet like chocolate! you are used to the massoretic text, but the septuagint is closer to the old testament quo…

binC, hello! long time no 'see'. happy new year :)

most eastern orthodox Christians are lovely, spend less time on the internet and you will find them :)
