Does anyone read this book? thoughts?

John 1:1 In the beginning was the WORD John 1:14 the WORD became flesh and dwelt among us. Deut 8:3 And He humbled you and let you go hungry, and fed you with the manna which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, in order to make you understand that man shall not live on bread alone, but...

Following in the path of the Holy Apostles, the Early Church Fathers, the Eastern Orthodox, the Oriental Orthodox, the Assyrian Church of the East, the Ancient Church of the East, the Roman Catholic Church, the Lutheran churches, and High Church Anglicans that our Lord is not merely spiritually...

Veiling, a Christian practice based upon scripture for almost 2000 years, until modern feminist pride said "no" to those scriptures, and OTHERS. The Holy Spirit through Paul instructs Christian women to wear a head covering in church when they pray and prophesy (1 Corinthians 11). Before you...

I believe and confess, as Coptic priests proclaim in the liturgy after the Epiklesis, that in a properly conducted sacramental liturgy, that the bread on the Paten or Diskos consecrated by the presbyter or bishop truly becomes the actual body of Christ, and likewise the wine in the Chalice truly...

I’ve been reading a book on your Eucharistic tradition and greatly enjoying it, so if there are any of you on CF.com, I would like to ask you some questions.

Lately I have become fascinated with this denomination, in which Ronald Reagan grew up, interestingly; while I myself prefer infant baptism, I find myself fascinated by what seems to have been an ecumenical attitude on the part of Stone and Campbell before ecumenism was a thing, and also the...

One thing I really wish would stop is the practice of putting monetary offerings right on the altar table, and also the incorrect use of the word “Offertory” to refer to the practice. In the context of liturgics, Offertory refers to the procession in which the unconsecrated bread and wine is...

I want to have an open ended discussion with members of Traditional Theology who have a strong connection to, or are priests, deacons or readers/lectors/psaltis in, liturgical or semi-liturgical churches, like my friends @MarkRohfrietsch , @hedrick , @Pavel Mosko, @dzheremi, @GreekOrthodox...

Here is an incident which happened yesterday during a recording of our priest celebrating a Eucharist at our local parish church. At the most appropriate possible moment a coincidence happens which is recorded as a hisorical event you can watch yourself. I would like to believe it was actually a...

This video is a sermon from Bishop Baron, on the day of the Catholic Church celebrates the body and blood of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Regardless of whether or not you agree with the Eucharistic themes presented,this still is an interesting discussion of our spiritual journey & dependence...

I understand that you believe the Eucharist cannot transmit disease such as Covid-19. But, are you allowed to believe that the physical properties of the Eucharist can have negative effects on people with celiac disease or with alcoholic addiction?

Good day everyone, I am going to make this post not as a judgement, but on my views as to why Communion should always be received kneeling (or genuflecting) and on the tongue. I am also open to any counter arguments that would be made. Prior to Vatican II and more specifically shortly after...

Probably preaching to the choir for most of the regulars on the board, but good info 75% of the Church by a survey does not believe in the Church teaching on the Eucharist and the bishop explains why it is central to the Church.

I've had an interest in the Anglican Tradition for a while. I have a few questions, most of which have to do with the ACNA. First, aside from having a stronger position on not ordaining women and breaking away from the Episcopal Church at a different time, I’m a little fuzzy on what makes the...

Hello, everyone. Today I'll be arguing through early christian sources that the early Christians (c.100-325AD) believed in the Real Presence. I'm not a Catholic (or any denomination for that matter) so I've got no vested interest in defending this doctrine but I'm pointing out that the early...

If we participate in the body and blood of Christ, shouldn't we do it with the body that was crucified? I heard that we do it with the resurrected body. Sorry, I'm still learning.

Hello and God bless you. I believe in reformed doctrine, but there are a couple things which confuse me when people discuss it on the forum. To be honest - I'm unsure this is something I am able to grasp. So be as plain spoken as possible, dumb layman here. :wave: @Jonaitis and @Albion (both...

What do you do physically, mentally and spiritually to be worthy of partaking in it?
