What I would like to share one day.....when I get myself educated enough....is an explanation on what is the dogma of the Ethiopian Orthodox church....what are the roles of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.....what are the 5 pilars of mystery and the seven sacraments of the church.....and what is the connection between common Orthodox traditions/practice and the Bible Pray for me....thanks Egziyabare amirowin yikfetilihe.

you know what guys...
have you ever though about why the separation in christian faith .. i mean if we look at other religions and then christian..christians are the one with a lot of denominations. Catholic, Orthodos, Protestant, Baptist, Pentecoastal, Methodist, Jehova's, Mornmon..etc etc.. It's like new denominations formin every time just cuz one person didn't agree with one church and then so make another denomination that goes with what the person feels is right..and so on and on.. but ok my point lol We know that separation is surely ain't from God. If it's not from God then it's obviously from the Devil. So why the devil separting us christians? There must be something about our faith that the devil want nobody else to know or from the truth being told to the world. You know in the book of Genesis. If ya'll recall the bible... people tryin to build a wall or was is it something but...lets say a wall that reaches up to God. And they were all working in unity and they made it very high but then when God found out about their plan he confused their language. everybody started talking different language (i guess thas is when languages came _________________ Nobody's good enough, smart enough, cute enough, or successful enough to be acceptable to a just and holy God. But when He looks at us through the eyes of Jesus, we become pleasing in His sight. Jesus is the answer! |

If there is unity, it means then ALL will be working for one leader. If there is only ONE leader, then there won't be flexibility (competition) for growth, which leads to 'worldly' growth/wealth, called greed. As long as greed lingers, man will fail. And, unfortunately, in this case, they will fail using the Bible. If everything fails and the word(s) in the Bible does not fit there need, then they will take it upon themselves to change the Bible. Note: There is really two types of division in a religion; Orthodox (strict/extreme) non-Orthodox (not strict/extreme). This goes for Muslim, Jews, etc. Alas, other divisions/separation such as Protestant, Mormon, and Jehovah, took their toll making Christianity the most divided/separated religion in the world. The only way we will unite is, if the later denominations understand clearly why they got created. Until then, only the Lord can help us. Y'all, and your family, have a Blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year. May the good Lord give us all the wealth and blessings for the year 2005. May the Lord's Angels protect us from all evil and guide us to His ways, ...all through out the days. Peace. _________________ IN GOD WE TRUST! Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply.
