I will declare Your name to My brethren; In the midst of the assembly I will praise You (Psa 22 : 22) Christian Coptic Orthodox Bishop.

This is indeed a great Hymn through which the church provides her very rich abundant feelings, with the declaration of her faith in the divinity of the Son, who was crucified for us .. to God be the glory in His church forever and ever! Amen. +O Monogenis Hymn+

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

He is the Mediator between God and men to take away our sins and the sentence of death through His mercy.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

O Holy Trinity have mercy upon us.
Finally the Church directs her hymn towards the Holy Trinity to have mercy upon us through the power of the blood of Christ and His Life Giving cross and His propitiated intercession.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

and endured death upon the Cross in His flesh for our salvation.
The characteristics of true Love is as follows indeed: "bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things." (1Co 13 : 7) +O Monogenis Hymn+

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

Holy Immortal, Who was crucified for us and endured death upon the Cross in His flesh, still being immortal;
We marvel at this issue: How did the One who still being immortal was been crucified for us. Although He is eternal and immortal, but He loves us

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

For though He was crucified in weakness (apparently), yet He lives by the power of God (The Father). For we also are weak in Him (according to appearance), but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you (2Co 13 : 4)

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

your sufferings- for me- saved me. You made yourself of no reputation to lift me up.Your dishonor glorified me. Your divine love compels me. Why do men refuse to have faith in you? Why don't they understand your love?

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

How can I call your sufferings?! Sufferings of love?! Sufferings of power?! Sufferings of victory?! Sufferings of salvation?! Sufferings of joy?! Sufferings of glory?! Sufferings of blessing?! Sufferings of honor and sublimity.
My good God; Your death keeps me alive,

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

so we can return to the bosom of our precious Church to enjoy our Holy Christ.
However, until churches are allowed to be opened, let us taste the beauty of the spiritual room, the gathering of family to pray and to be assembled around the Bible at home.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

and the Holy communion of the Body and the Blood of the Lord.
Likewise, our meeting in the church does not diminish the value and the importance of the spiritual room.
But it is an exceptional circumstance, we pray that it ends quickly,

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

he didn't intend to ingrain the idea of ​​dispensing the liturgy as the fellowship of believers by which they gather gather around Christ through the leading of the clergy. No spiritual practice can be equated with the value of the Eucharist,

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

When one of the fathers, or one of the servants, write words of comfort, in a very cruel circumstance,which is the closing off the churches to believers,He certainly didn't intend to underestimate the value of the church as the house of God, and the place where His comfort dwells

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

Mettons de côté nos différences dans cette circonstance exceptionnelle et difficile.
Que le Seigneur soit avec vous tous.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

afin de renouveler notre relation avec Dieu, d'être bons les uns envers les autres, compatissants et de communiquer avec les autres - communication à distance - pour avoir de leurs nouvelles.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

Nos activités quotidiennes dans le travail nous ont épuisés, elles ont conduit l'homme à devenir une machine.
C'est une opportunité en or, une chance à ne pas rater pour retrouver notre humanité dans cette mesure sans précedent de limitation de mouvements et cet état d'isolement

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

Dieu nous punit-il? nous avertit-il? Ou bien cette affaire n'a rien à voir avec Dieu?
Au lieu de créer une nouvelle cause de différence et de conflit,
Revenons à Dieu par le repentir, la prière, la satiété par l'Évangile et la retraite spirituelle.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

Au lieu de s'inquiéter tout en fouillant les causes de cette pandémie qui menace le monde entier, Est-ce que Dieu nous l'a envoyée? ou bien c'est la nature?
Est-ce que c'est la colère de Dieu? Ou bien c'est le moment de la visite?

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

to ask about someone's well being.
Put aside our differences in this exceptional and difficult circumstance.
May the Lord be with you all.

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

It is a golden opportunity, a chance that should not be missed to regain our humanity in this lockdown and the unprecedented isolation state
to renew our relationship with God, to be kind to one another, tenderhearted and to communicate with others - even from afar -

[Bishopraphaeil @Bishopraphaelan]

Instead of creating a new cause for difference and conflict,
Let us go back to God through repentance, prayer, satiety by Gospel, and spiritual retreat.
Our exhausted daily activities in the labor lead man to become machine.
