Why would you run away from that stuff though.. I mean.. shouldn't we have the answers.. ? Well I meant running away if we dont ahve answers which was said by my other brohters and sisters here Running away is never a bad thing though when you are…

lets just say sometimes to much contact even if it is in a brotherly/sisterly manner can lead to difficult and confusing feelings: i.e. I knew of a girl who was really friendly, nothing sexual, jsut friendly and she would always hang with these kid…

I took this quote from the site Anglican referred us to: STATMENT 1 Throughout our discussions we have found our common ground in the formula of our common Father, St. Cyril of Alexandria : mia physis hypostasis (he mia hypostasis) tou Theou Logou …

just like jydeacon said, if it has to do with faith and u dont feel comptent to fight it then the best thing to do is "run-away" from the situation runing away is not a cowardly act, so dont look down upon yourself for doing it, but if its just r…

na we used to but we split... we are seperated from them due to our Dogmatic Beliefs they believe in Dithyisim while we believe in Miathyism The EOC approved the council of chalcedon of 451 and then split in another council from the Roman Catholic C…

So if a EOC converts to Coptic Orthodoxism he only confesses, he isnt rebaptized?
-
For instance, baptism is required by immersion in water in order to obtain salvation. Im pretty sure that the Eastern Churches require Baptism by immersion, yet we are not allwed to share with them any of the other sacraments? Does this we mean we …

So does the Coptic Orhtodox Church acknowledge the Commuinon of Other Churches? I mean do we see their bread as the Body of Christ?
-
In addition what I find would really helpful is if you try fasting with prayer. I mean our Lord said about some types of devils that "This type can not come out excpet by prayer and fasting" and since this redundant sin is orignanly from the devil…

well ya....

was the person then ordained a priest?
-
Hmmm Wow Enlightning So what is the COC view on other churches who have the sacrament of communioin? Do we believe that the transformation of the bread actually occurs?
-
OK so waht about Max Michel....the heretic, i mean he was "ordained a bishop" and im pretty sure its not rightful, so do the people who partake of the Holy Communion from him, really taking in Jesus' Body and Blood?
-
So that brings us back to the question? What if the Priest is wrongfully ordained?
-
well ya but think of it this way: My little brother used to play "abouna" when he was a child and he asked a family friend, who was a preist, if he wat he did was wrong and the preist said as long as the "bread" wasnt a hamal (one of the loaves th…

This also got me thinking: When Origen was ordained a Priest against Church Law (cuz he was a eunuch) he had to perform a Mass, now during his Mass, did the bread and wine transform into the Body and Blood of Christ, being that he was elected Pries…
-
Yes! exaclty! thats what i thought to until I read St. Palludus Refer to him as a Priest (keep in mind that this was when he was still in Mt. Nitria in Egypt)

From what I read on teh Internet His main church in el moqattam by the name of St. Athanasius serves about 50 families but thats all i kno
-
Well the church is our sister church i.e. its beliefs are our beliefs we are fullly united but now that the church has a "illegal" patriarch.....we are "on hold" thats where my question comes in
-
ya but at that time the Emperor imposed Patriarch Gregory the Arian, was not wanted and most Copts refused to acknowledge him but in todays case Many of the Eriterian Chruches Holy Synod acknowledge him as their Patriarch
-
hmmm.....does that mean we no longer should partake of the sacraments with them i.e. cant take Communion in their Churches?
-
Its one of the Oriental Orthdox Churches (which we belong too) It brancehd from the Ethiopian Church,

Congrats!! All the names are wondeful and Christian names I personally know two Coptic Christophers, even though from what I know the Saint is more Catholically adored and honored, but still a wonderful name after a wondeful person. Likewise all t…

Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee. And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. Luke 15:18-19 I find it touching how a full 360 was pulled by the Prodigal Son going form A Proud Arrogant So…

whose the new priest for westside??

its an eastcoast competition where certain books are assigned and read and then they meet up at the Philly Church and questions are asked to see hwo wins it

I guess we all missed the main point -- that Palestinains are getting the business end of the deal As Copts we shouldnt be mad that the Church isnt in "our name" the only thing that should upset us would be hte fact that the Israeli govermnet took i…
