    Help finding passage

    Hello all, I remember a passage, I believe in the OT, about not confusing the gods of other nations for God. However, I'm having trouble finding it. I was wondering if anyone knew what I was looking for. Thanks!

    Anyone know where I can get a list of the final proposition from Vatican II?

    St. John Paul II keeps referencing them in Pastores Dabo Vobis.

    The Tetragrammaton is an Abreviation?

    I teach morality at a high school and was reading the textbook on the second commandment for the first time. They suggested that the Tetragrammaton was an initialism for "I am who I am". I've never seen that before and can't find anything clear about it via a Google search. I looked at Ex...

    Mt 22:38 in Ge'ez

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone could give me a copy of Mt 22:38 in Ge'ez (preferably Unicode). I have been unable to find this online -- with perhaps the exception of http://www.tau.ac.il/~hacohen/NT/NTp%2061.html which is more than I can decipher. I'd really appreciate it.

    Help Finding a R & B/ Hip Hop Song Title

    A few months back I heard a song on a local Christian radio station. Sounded like R & B, but I've never been good with genre distinctions. It was by a female artist and the hook was something like "Don't wanna do what I see, I wanna do what you say. I put my trust in you Lord, I put my trust...

    Finding an Alternative to the Story of Bathsheba

    I need to teach a lesson to middle school students on the importance of narrative within the context of salvation. If it weren't for the sex the story of Bathsheba I would use that because God attempts through "logical proofs": Bathsheba's pregnancy as a consequence of his actions, Uriah, the...

    Historical Inaccuraccies in the Troparion for Christmas

    I posted the same thing in the Orthodox forum because they would likely be more familiar with it, but I wanted a Catholic response too. For those not familiar with it look here. Perhaps I'm mistaken, so please inform me if I am, but does it bother anyone that the Magi being Zoroastrians almost...

    Historical Inaccuraccies in the Troparion for Christmas

    For those not familiar with it look here. Perhaps I'm mistaken, so please inform me if I am, but does it bother anyone that the Magi being Zoroastrians almost certainly didn't worship stars? Does it matter? I'm not trying to be provocative here; I'm working on a liturgy for Christmas Eve...

    Holy Supper on Christmas Eve (For Slavs really; Catholics welcome:) )

    Hello, I've married a Ukrainian girl who wants me to do Svyata Vechera with her on Christmas Eve every year. So not being able to find anything similar online and not having succeeded much at winging it this last year, I'm writing a liturgy of sorts :thumbsup:. I was wondering if those of you...

    Use of in 1 Cor. 7:40

    Does anyone think that it could indicate something stronger than a supposition? Chapters 1-3 seem to require this, but I'm not familiar enough with the words usage other places to make that determination.

    Divine Causality and Natural Causality

    I'd like to start a discussion about the relationship between divine causality and natural causality. To that end, it seems to say that God interacts with us through the occurrences in our lives can only mean one of four things without being largely tautological regarding our state as subjects...

    Isaiah 50

    Im trying to work through a more complicated theological difficulty without inundating the forum with a very long discussion that requires pages of my own text to even begin contriubuting. Part of this can be done by interpreting Isaiah 50, so I thought I would create a post that does just...

    How to write "John" in Coptic

    Hello all, I was wondering if someone could tell me how to write the name of the Gospel of John in Coptic. I've found Coptic bibles online, but the titles are always written out in English and I do not know what the appropriate declension is for this purpose. Thanks

    Super quick question, I need an answer pronto

    I've been told that the Orthodox do not accept Mormon 'Baptisms'. Now I realise that there are perhaps differences in theology regarding how sacraments function if one is not EO, what I'm hoping we can keep it to is: If someone were raised Mormon had been 'baptised' by them and then wanted to...

    Question Regarding Mormon 'Baptism'.

    I know that I am not Catholic but I would like the advice of the people here, and so I hope it is ok if I post it here. I don't want it in the Unorthodox Theology because I'm worried about it being Trolled and I only want responses from people who are commited to the belief that they are not...
