  • No it is not just your church, a lot of church's in the US have these problems. the thing about the two different chorus is not necessarily a bad thing. but if they are pitted against each other then it is and that would deffinetly be bad and i woul…
  • Welcome i am sure you will love this site as much as we all do
  • well i believe that the actuall # 6 represents man and inperfection. while 7 is perfection and 8 is everlasting. but i am not sure exactly what 666 means. all i know are those numbers. but i think it deals with imperfection and evil.
  • no you are not bothering me at all i, we can chat through pm so as not to hinder this topic
  • Well sometimes things have to get worse before they get better sorry to say. and prayer is not always an immediate thing. you must be persistent in your prayers and pray in faith or else it is in vain. Just keep up the prayers trust me it works
  • well i think that in that version it is possible that God is saying not to make images of other gods because god is not capitalized. when the word god is not captilized it means that He is not talking about himself. What version is your Bible? the c…
  • Well i don't speak German but in English it says, "You shall not make for yourself a carved image-any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath or that is in the waters under the earth" I believe that this means t…
  • This verse is only refering to the heveanly hosts or the stars and planets. if you have a picture of God you are still worshipping him. Jesus is God, so why would He get upset for us having a picture of Him for our great love towards Him?
  • Do you mean the ten comandments. i still don't remember which comandment you are talking about
  • I definetly don't think it is forbiden to have a picture of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ. it is one of the best things to have. How did you reach that conclusion that it was forbidden if you don't mind me asking?
  • The best thing to do is pray and pray and pray. and ask for forgiveness to the person you disapointed. that is truly all you can do. now i don't know if you are looking for an answer that doesn't say to pray in it but that is truly the best thing to…
  • Thanks for the explanation, i have never heard of it before.
  • Please exucuse my ignorance, but what is the antiphonarium? Is it a part in the Liturgy or an actual hymn. Again please exucuse me for my ignorance
  • alright i will have to try that  [move]Is it working?[/move]
  • The link that minagir gave has the church address and website and i have the address right here: 4775 S. Pearl street Englewood CO 80110 the website also has info on the schedule of the liturgy's and info on our priest. If you have anyother question…

  • Hey ebnyasoua, i have asthma too and it gets cold over here too. when i was younger i actually couldn't go to church and serve as deacon and i felt horrible that i couldn't serve. but eventually i got over it. now for the cold thats a different stor…
  • WOW!!! what a coincidence, i live in Colorado, the church here is Saint Marks in Englewood. Where are you in the state(which city)? If it is somewhere i can recognize i could give you directions or you can map quest it cause i have the address. let …
  • Hey Christine glad to have you back, i am sure you have noticed that the website has changed since you have been here last (guessing its been over a month) i am sure you will definetly love it (again i am sure)
  • Oh well here is the link again, hope it works this time. if it doesn't work this time you can just copy and paste the link into the web address above and it should work. if that doesn't work then go to www.coptichymns.net and go to the tab that says…
  • This is the same tune we use for all of the psalms during holy week (except [coptic]Pek`;ronoc/ Aye[enon[/coptic] here is a link for the tune the hymn is called Ke eperto but this is the tune used for all hymns except the ones i mentioned that have …
  • Hey, Coptichymns.net has many many articles on this subject i have a link for just a few articles. if you look to the right hand column there are many more things for hymns such as hymnology and other great things. Hope i was of any help http://www…
  • Just to add another point: We don't believe that we actually carry the sin of adam and eve but the corrupt nature they recieved by disobeying God. So we inherit their corrupt nature and not the actual sin.
  • Minagir is right, i have heard the Lamentations of Jeremiah in at least 5 or 6 different ways. there really is no consistent version. I personally love this version and it is in English and Arabic. Here it is: http://www.coptichymns.net/modules/Dow…
  • I have generally heard in sermons that the ransom was to God the Father to accept the redemption of our souls by paying the price of death for our sins. Like you said we owed a great debt to our Lord and he paid it in full with His death on the cros…
  • Generally the people who wrote and composed the hymns put themselves in some how if it is directly in the hymn or praise or they would put the letters of their names somehow at the begining of each verse
  • Actually, you don't recieve the Holy Spirit from baptism. you are just washed from the corrupt nature. You recieve the Holy Spirit from the Holy Mayron which you recieve in Chrismation, which generally happens right after baptism.
  • Can you put the verse where you got that from because i can not recall where that is, and you possibly might be taking it out of context
