In 1997 he was back with the Moonies, and.. Father Athanasius Paul of the Coptic Orthodox Church offered a congratulatory plaque on behalf of the first 100 Christian Ministers in the United States who received the preliminary Blessing. Why was he …

It is interesting that in 1996 Father Athanasius Paul attended a conference organised by the Moonie cult, and it was stated that he had been sent by Pope Shenouda. I doubt this very much, but it seems hard to understand how a Coptic Orthodox pries…

Dear ILSM, I am always dependent on your prayerful support. Tomorrow night, Thursday, 14th June, at 7:30 pm, His Eminence Metropolitan Abba Seraphim will be leading Orthodox Evening Prayers, and then a presentation and discussion on the subject of …

The UK is a bit big so folk will need to know where you are.

Do NOT visit this website or read anything from it. This woman is one of a number of demonic dupes and NO Orthodox Christian should allow their mind and soul to be contaminated by what is real evil.

I'm researching this at the moment for an article and podcast soon.

Lol! It's not so much the dressing incorrectly which gets me, rather the wide variety of vesting. And seeing priests not vested properly. I wouldn't mind so much if there were just some order, whatever it is. I would really like to see the true Di…

I will certainly pray for you. Have you done enough work to pass in one go?

If you are not ordained to a rank then you should not dress as if you were. To be asked to step in and perform some service because there is a need is acceptable and part of the service required of us all, but to dress as if we were some other rank…

Metouro, it is not as simple as stating things, reasonably, as you have done, and asking for agreement. Different communities have different theological lexicons by which they express their faith, and although these lexicons may not produce the same…

None of it is in English unfortunately which makes it hard to share the treasures of the Ethiopian Orthodox tradition.

I find that odd as fasting on a Sunday is forbidden by the canons, and fasting on a Saturday is forbidden other than on Holy Saturday.

My podcasts in the intermediate state of the soul after death swallowed with these issues.

Yes there is a place of waiting for Hell but that is not what Purgatory is in the Catholic scheme of things.

I also rather feel that this very extended and complicated discussion is drifiting away from the aims of this forum. I would appreciate it if those wishing to continue pick it up on FB or by email.

God is not real like a tree in your garden. Ill say it again you are trying to put God under a microscope. He will not fit. If you have stopped praying then you will never discover him. He makes himself known to those who seek him with perseverance.

If you do not know whether the universe exists then why is acting as if it does the best way forward? How do you know that it works? The universe you seem to be experiencing surely has many problems? Surely it would be more reasonable to assume th…

There is no way to prove that the universe exists and is not simply an illusion within the person who is experiencing it.

Do pray for the missions of the British Orthodox Church. It is not easy to find and work with those who are not Orthodox, and not even Christian, and share our faith with them. If you are in London or the surrounding area do consider supporting ou…

The Bible is not intended to be the source of issue to worry about. The Christian faith is not in the Bible it is in God. Christ is all. What do you say about Christ. Nothing else matters in the same way.

[quote author=K-man link=topic=13328.msg155940#msg155940 date=1337810051] Hello Father Peter, [quote author=Father Peter link=topic=13328.msg155938#msg155938 date=1337808680] There is plenty of reasonable evidence to show that Christ existed and th…

There is plenty of reasonable evidence to show that Christ existed and that the Gospels are eyewitness accounts. The Chuch was filled with people who had seen and known Christ. But I know of no person who has been convinced into faith. Faith should …

Our God has created a mature universe. Therefore he has created the history of the universe at the same time. This does not mean that the universe is objectively old, or that he did not create Adam and Eve as we are taught. It is IMPOSSIBLE to cre…

You may find these two podcasts useful... http://orthodoxfaith.podbean.com/2012/01/27/the-intermediate-state-of-the-soul-after-death/ http://orthodoxfaith.podbean.com/2012/04/09/the-intermediate-state-of-the-soul-after-death-in-st-severus/

They have posted the video here... If people would like to post it to their Facebook pages I would be grateful.

There have been other non-Egyptian Archbishops of Alexandria.

May I suggest that you pray several times daily for this person that they might recieve God's blessing. Love is not a feeling, it is action and will. If you put into action the determination of your will to forgive this person then feelings will be…

I don't have a problem with the topic that irishpilgrim is addressing. I think it important. But I wish he would write in a manner that was more coherent and understandable. Often saying less says more. In a short, simple, English paragraph with n…

I think that it is the settled opinion of all Orthodox that the god of Islam and Buddhism is NOT the same as the Holy and Consubstantial Trinity.

My understanding is that irishpilgrim is a member of the Coptic Orthodox Church. I agree that it is not always possible to understand everything he says because he uses a jargon of his own, and his rather sweeping accusations naturally raise people…
