For us, Romanians, for two thousand years, the Church, the spiritual mother of our people, as called Mihai Eminescu, was our guide in all the best.\n<\/span>Whirl living in freedom, anarchic freedom, especially by a good portion of our youth, we believe that the Church, holy institution – the Body of Christ – will remain on our haven soul. <\/span>This faith comes by Our Saviour Jesus Christ in the words: “No gates of hell would not prevail against my Church” (Matthew 16, 18). <\/span>Indeed Christ’s words were true, take heed to the persecutions of the first Christian centuries, when the church has remained steadfast, and the number tr\u0103itorilor and confessors of the Christian faith increased.
\n<\/span>By the word “church” we mean the mystical body of Christ, that the congregation of all those who believe in Christ and share with the seven Sacraments; <\/span>The second meaning of the word “church” is the place of worship – on the Holy Table or Prestol – is permanently Holy Communion, Divine Body and Blood of our Saviour Jesus Christ.
\n<\/span>In church, place of worship, we are baptized and taken to worshiping forty days after birth; <\/span>We go to church every feast day; <\/span>church pray better than anywhere else; <\/span>the church partake of the Holy Mysteries; <\/span>listen sermon in church; <\/span>We sanctify life in the church.
\n<\/span>Looking church, both outside and inside they feel that we are in a very holy; <\/span>this we profess in the words of Ceaslov: “In your glorious church standing in heaven seems to stand” is a conviction of each of us when we are in the house of the Lord with pure hearts. <\/span>The church is the house of the Lord, because God dwelleth therein Eucharist, ie it is the Body and Blood of Christ – Holy Communion.
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>Actively participate in the church – each after training and skill – singing in the choir or reading the Apostle, canons or Psalter. <\/span>Hymns of our Church, through their song, elevates us spiritually, and their words illuminate our minds get to know the doctrine of faith.
\n<\/span>In the church we find more peace, joy and salvation in the church all prepare ourselves spiritually to receive worthily, as far as possible, Holy Communion.
\n<\/span>The church was prepared and the Mother of God from the age of three years to be born with the body of the One with no beginning, the Son of God, Savior of the world.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
It is better received the prayer of the faithful in the church than at home?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n “I do not know if it is received, but one thing is certain: it is stronger. <\/span>See, when the wood stove is one if the wood is dry and good for fire, burn and gives warmth. <\/span>But if you have more wood certainly will give more heat. <\/span>That is where the difference between home and prayer in the church. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" For us, Romanians, for two thousand years, the Church, the spiritual mother of our people, as called Mihai Eminescu, was our guide in all the best.

\n<\/span>Christian can pray at home and even deeply indebted to. <\/span>Prayer either the home or the church is inspired by the same Spirit, but there are some differences in shades. <\/span>First, more people in church and praying together the prayer is more fire, more powerful, more alive and therefore quicker to reach God.
\n<\/span>Then home is not the priest who by his ministry special by his vocation of prayer intercessor to God makes the faithful of the church to reach faster and safer to the throne of God’s mercy. <\/span>Home Christian does not read the Gospel during prayer or read in a certain order, not listening to the sermon. <\/span>Home Christian has no sacraments. <\/span>To them all I will add an important aspect: as sacred as our closet where we worship, holiness does not compare to the house of God.
\n<\/span>Who loves adorning the house of God, God adorns his house just by his presence. <\/span>Let us not forget one thing: as beautiful as a church by painting and sculpting them, no matter how nice would sing, which adorns the church is truly a greater number of faithful who come to pray. <\/span>Because if a church is very beautiful, but are not worshipers during the service, there is felt a goal. <\/span>Reason for sadness is to see that places that had filled the people are empty. <\/span>You ask yourself: “If my place in the church was empty, and somehow not really my place in Heaven that God has prepared me it will remain empty?”
\n<\/span>Interesting question. <\/span>However, there are some people who say they feel embarrassed by some things in the church, that others are not behaving in a proper place where they are and they say: “I pray at home, I have my relationship with God” <\/span>.
\n<\/span>These are pretexts on which it relies people who want to justify their own conscience. <\/span>It would be more honest for a man that walketh not come to church to say directly: “I hate the church and therefore I, being more comfortable staying at home.” <\/span>First, those who pray at home, come to church. <\/span>And those who do not pray at home, do not come to church too.
\n<\/span>I think that is a directly proportional relationship between our desire and our desire prayer house of prayer in the church. <\/span>I have been to many churches; <\/span>and parish churches, monasteries and churches within and tend to make a statement: they claim – it’s a mess, I can not pray, I feel embarrassed by the presence of others – are baseless justifications. <\/span>In general, the man who wants to pray in silence and quietly finds a place in any church.
\n<\/span>People who want to justify, justify, but justify merely to deceive conscience, not to comfort. <\/span>It therefore remains a goal rather large and desolate felt in the hearts of those who refuse to come to the house of God. <\/span>For God calls us to his house and give him something that we do not give him what his, we are poor.
\n<\/span>He calls us to give us what no one in this world can give us: forgiveness, salvation, eternal life, par soul, purify us, to enlighten and elevate us to the state of his sons. <\/span>Those gifts, man receives anywhere on earth if not start from the house of God, from the book of God, from His servants, the Gospel of the Son of God. “(Hierodeacon Basil, Bistrita Monastery)<\/span><\/p>\n
