The Orthodox Church

+++This is a short video showing how beautiful the Orthodox Church really is. How rich it is in tradtion, and in spirtuality, in the way they pray and in practice. The hymn is calle E-Aghapy and it is said in Coptic(Egyptian) This is the greek response to the Pauline Epistle in the presence of the pope or bishop. i will try to get the translation of the hymn... Enjoy and may God continue to Bless his Church. +++ Here is the translation guys :)

The love of God the Father, and the grace of his Only Begotten Son, our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ, and the communion and gift of the Holy Spirit. Be with our most holy righteous father, Pope Abba (Shenouda).
Pope and Patriarch of the great city of Alexandria. And all the land of Egypt, and the city of our God, Jerusalem, and the five western cities, and Libya, and Nubia, and Ethiopia, and Africa. If a Bishop is present:
And the blessed Saint, the most honorable, our father Abba (...) our Orthodox Bishop of this city and its surroundings.
May the clergy and all the people be safe in the Lord. Amen. So it shall be.


محبة الله الأب ونعمة الإبن الوحيد ربنا وإلهنا ومخلصنا يسوع المسيح. وشركة وعطية الروح القدس تكون مع الأقدس الطوباوي أبينا البابا أنبا (شنودة).
بابا وبطريرك المدينة العظمي الإسكندرية، وكل كورة مصر، ومدينة إلهنا أورشليم، والخمس مدن الغربية وليبيا والنوبة والحبشة وأفريقيا
في حضور أسقف:
والقديس المغبوط الكلي الإكرام أبينا أنبا (...) أسقفنا الأرثوذكسي الذي لهذه المدينة وتخومها.
فليكن الإكليروس وكل الشعب معارفين الرب. آمين يكون.

Coptic-English:
E-ghapee to Theo patros, ke ee-kharisto mono-ge-nos, Eio Kereio ze ke Theo ke soteros ee-emon, Eso Ekhresto, ke ee-ke-nonia ke ee-thore-a, to agio epnev-ma-to, ke ee-meta-to agio tato, ke makario tato, patros eemon papa avva (Shenouda).

If a Bishop is present:

Catholicexodus: True, the Bible is beautiful. It is a shame that you have rejected its message by rejecting its Church.

"Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which you have been taught, whether orally, or by our epistle." II Thessalonians 2:15

Great video. God bless all Orthodox Christians!!!

@cooltibu Indeed. This is Coptic; the ancient Egyptian language that all Egyptians used to speak prior to the Muslim take-over. Yes, it is based on the Greek alphabet, but only pronunciation is difference, tune and additional characters is what difference the Coptic language for Greek.

God Bless.

@pleebloo hey sorry my brother in faith. I ment to send it to the one above you. I blieve our orthodox religion is the first and still follows the same way when it started. I am eritrean and most proud to be orthodox. Sorry for my comments i didnt mean to send it to you. May God bless you!

[pleebloo]

@4everpraisethelord: Peace to you too. Did you mean to address your post to someone else? I am Orthodox and agree with everything you said. I'm not sure what you think I said about Constantinople. I don't think I ever mentioned anything like that. What facts did I get wrong?

[4everpraisethelord]

@pleebloo hi peace with you. Orhodox christianiy is th first religion after christ. You can say constantinople started christianity but the truth is orthodox religion had already started in israel at the ime. Get you facts right.

LONG LIVE ORTHODOX

GREETINGS FROM SERBIA

[abiti3]

Why did u include Ethiopia for Abune Shinoda to be the patriarch. Ethiopia has her own patriarch that leads the church and his name is called in the liturgies like yours.
