  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=13649.msg159247#msg159247 date=1345746494] I actually disagree imikhail.. I don't think those Arabic melodies are part of the original rites. Just that we lost teaching about what should be said after be'aish for in…
  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=13649.msg159236#msg159236 date=1345734558] Dear imikhail, Are you referring to the Arabic melodies? Oujai qen `P[C [/quote] Yes, al madae7
  • The time of communion should be dedicated to remembering our salvation through the sacrifice of which we are partaking. During this time we should be medititating only on Christ and what He had done for our salvation. Let me ask this question: wo…

  • [quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=13539.msg159204#msg159204 date=1345665473] I guess I am not being clear. My question pertains to a person who believes in the Trinity AND leads a righteous life. By leading a righteous life, I mean he does works of …
  • [quote author=The least of all link=topic=13627.msg159203#msg159203 date=1345660980] My understanding of both of these Psalms stems from the understanding of anthropology according to the fathers, and according them this is the definitive viewpoint;…
  • My understanding of both of these Psalms stems from the understanding of anthropology according to the fathers So what did the fathers say about these two psalms?
  • We are deified, it is a hypostatic union, it is not the change in nature (no body claimed it was). Within theology, the term "Hypostatic union" means the deity united with the humanity. The only time this took place is when the Son took flesh fro…
  • [quote author=Remnkemi link=topic=13539.msg159196#msg159196 date=1345653964] No. I am not talking about sola fide. I am talking about a person who believes in the Trinity AND leads a righteous life. Are we supposed to doubt an assured inheritance? I…

  • 1. No, the Pope/Patriarch/Archbishop of Alexandria has no more charism than that of any other Bishop. He is ultimately subject to the Holy synod and can be deposed by the synod. To give an example, Pope Yusab II, who was deposed for corruption. Ju…

  • [quote author=childoforthodoxy link=topic=13627.msg159133#msg159133 date=1345469988] Pardon my inquiry, but I feel that it is essential to know. I'm sure the reason for my question will be revealed in coming posts. I ask the question to you humbly, …

  • [quote author=The least of all link=topic=13627.msg159121#msg159121 date=1345429128] No it doesnt, your understanding dictates that. When you put yourself at odds with the opinions of the fathers, and a well learned modern father of ours, Fr. Peter,…
  • [quote author=The least of all link=topic=13627.msg159119#msg159119 date=1345425534] Yes the Bible does teach that there is no salvation outside of baptism but what i am saying is this. It is logically incoherent to state that we dont inherit Adam a…
