[@PomazeBog1389]

Because of the disobedient act of eating, humanity has fallen out of communion with God. But through obedient eating (Holy Communion), mankind is able to reestablish that relationship with God.

[@MrGb1965]

Christ is the center of everything.

[@pah9730]

The Divine Liturgy - what is it? Christ. The Eucharist is the center of the Divine Liturgy and the Eucharist is Christ.

[@garrettbar2212]

The divine liturgy is the corporate worship of Christ

[@paullalau4286]

Are the mysteries my brothers and sisters. The communication with God through divine liturgy, to become jesus, put jesus in centre of your heart and keep him there. Your spiritual father will bring you there. Γενοιθήτω το θέλημα σου Θεέ μου. Thank God we're Christians, thank God for the begin and ending. Τέλος κι Αρχή. Αρχή σοφίας- φόβος Κυρίου. Τέλος σοφίας- αγάπη Κυρίου. Οτι αρχίζει με δυσκολία και πίστη τελειώνει με αγάπη. Εκεί καταλαβαίνεις τι πραγματικά έχει σημασία κι ας'είναι και στο τέλος αυτής της ζωής, αρκεί να τον βρούμε. Από εκεί ξεκινάει μια καινούρια αρχή εν Θεό. Εύχομαι να καταλάβατε τι θέλω να πώ. Για αυτό τα θεία μυστήρια, η ζωή του Κυρίου που ζούμε μέσω των θείων λειτουργιών πρέπει να είναι στην ζωή του Χριστιανού και πάντα με καθοδήγησή, τον πνευματικό. Όπως Τον άρτον ημών των επιούσιον που είναι η Θεία Κοινωνία, ένα απ τα θεία μυστήρια της εκκλησίας. Ευλογημένο Πάσχα σε όλους. Αρετή

[@paullalau4286]

Το θείον έργον που συμμετέχουν οι ψυχές των κι η Θεία χάρις . Ευλογητός ο Θεός νυν και στου αιώνος ο Θεός ημών αμην

I live in England. There are few Orthodox churches and most of them serve the liturgy in Greek, Russian, Romanian, Serbian as they were established for an immigrant population. I’m working towards Chrismation and it is my ardent desire to go regularly to Divine Liturgy yet I have never once been to one entirely in English. The Liturgy is a precious jewel which is seemingly “hidden” from my fellow countrymen by language they don’t understand. Currently I travel 75 miles round trip to a Russian Orthodox Church that has an English service twice a month which is still around 20% Russian! My local Greek church was around 50/50 English / Greek but the priest has moved and it has reverted to 95% Greek. That shuts me out! God have mercy on us.

[@OrthodoxEthos]

I pray you are baptized. It is blessed. Thrice-blessed. God give it!

[@OrthodoxEthos]

MAY GOD BLESS the Orthodox missionaries of your land, to remember and imitate the ancient saints who first made England Orthodox!

[@malindsell]

@@OrthodoxEthos yes, trinitarian baptism in a Baptist church in 1973. My priest accepts that, though I know some don't.

[@1stdebunker]

I'm ready

[@Dlee-eo5vv]

Christ is in and through his church orthodox, union of heaven and earth.

Thank you our Lord Jesus Christ☦️☦️☦️

[@Zoidiam]

Thank you Father’s for this Divine undertaking! It is absolutely so needed, especially in these precarious times of apostasy. What the Saint in your book has described regarding the Divine Liturgy and it’s importance is absolute truth. I will share a story with you from my own personal experience with my late spiritual father. In the mid 1990’s he had come to my city in Australia. He was a visiting Archimandriti from Greece who lectured at the Theological College and was given permission to perform the liturgy and conduct confessions. However, the Divine Liturgy is not served on a daily basis here in our parishes so he didn’t. Saint Porfyrios, who had been his spiritual father, appeared to him and scolded him by saying do not follow what these priests are doing. You go and perform the Divine Liturgy as it is your responsibility to God and the Saints of the day! Saint Porfyrios also performed the Liturgy daily and where? In Omonia Athens, the worst place for drugs, violence and prostitution! Glory be to God for all things! 🙏🏽☦️📿

[@traceyedson9652]

So appreciated this conversation. I’m curious why the sentiment exists that it’s Catholics who esteem daily Liturgy and it’s “not really Orthodox.” Perhaps parishes could be challenged annually at some point to have daily liturgy for 40, or some other doable but challenging succession of days.

[@johnnyd2383]

Why background music must be at a higher level than conversation.? If I set volume to be just right to hear conversation, once background music starts mortar from the ceiling starts falling down.

[@carolflower9672]

I totally agree with you ... why is background music so loud on many videos. I have PTSD & find it too distracting.

[@godsaveskyrieeleison5859]

Glory to God I finally get to catch a stream ☦️🙏

[@EvansEasyJapanese]

I need a book that breaks down the Liturgy for someone who isn't familiar with it at all. We're going to Heaven? Help a former atheist out!

[@OrthodoxEthos]

“The Divine Liturgy: A Commentary in the Light of the Fathers” is a great book on the liturgy! You can find it here on Amazon: a.co/d/ccmF1u9 Or, “A Commentary on the Divine Liturgy” by St. Nicholas Cabasilas here: a.co/d/0ViOnX0
