For all true Orthodox Tewahedo believers, when you post your comment, please use church language, and focus on the solution than magnifying the difference. Let's avoid hate and save our church together. The truth will set us free, seek the truth.

Yes they do.

I'm curious does the Ethiopian Church believe in the "Holy Trinity"?

@FRAGIORGIO1 Thank you for correcting me for! I'm SORRY, you are correct, the Eastern Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant Churches believe that he was fully man and fully God. I'm still a catechumen and I'm still learning about the faith, forgive me. ICXC NIKA!

@MegaKrishan123 Correction: the Eastern Orthodox, Catholic, and Protestant Churches (orthodox ones) do Not believe that Christ was half and half but rather that He was fully man and fully God.

ተዋሕዶን ታድሷት ዘንድ የተዘጋጃችሁ እናንት እነማን ናችሁ?

[MegaKrishan123]

@Jenfucius The Ethiopian Orthodox believes in the Holy Trinity, and professes that every time they make the sign of the cross. However, unlike the Eastern Orthodox Churches, Catholic Churches, and Protestant Churches; the believe that Christ was fully God/Divine and not Half man/Half Divine. This belief is held by the Coptic Orthodox Church, The Armenian Church, and other Alexandrian Rite Churches also.

Thanks bazienabi

I will do that and not attempt to shake hands with priest or higher rank member.

[bazienabai]

@Jenfucius no problem

pretty much just taking off your shoes before entering the sanctuary and you should refrain from shaking the hand of a priest or of higher rank

besides that you should be good

[Jenfucius]

Thank you bazienabai

Any customs I should observe when entering an Ethiopian church for the first time? (I dont want to do anything that might offend anyone.)
