Description
This beautiful mug it can be the perfect religious gift.You can drink your tea or coffee saying a prayer to the Mother of God. The Orthodox Church honors & venerates the Virgin Mary as more honourable than the Cherubim & more glorious without compare than the Seraphim ... Her name is mentioned in every service, & her intercession before the throne of God is asked. She is given the title of Theotokos (Greek for Birth-giver-of-God), as well as Mother of God. She has a definite role in Orthodox Christianity, & can in no way be considered an instrument which, once used, was laid aside & forgotten. Objections to the veneration of the Theotokos are based primarily on what is called a lack of scriptural evidence to support such a practice. While it is true that the Church depends heavily on her Tradition other than Holy Scripture (Ecumenical Councils, liturgical books, & the writings of the Fathers) for details & the precise definition of the nature of the veneration of the Virgin Mary, there are several passages of the New Testament that really form the basis for our practice. The angel Gabriel was sent by God to announce to the Virgin the birth of the Saviour: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women. (Luke 1:28) This angelic salutation forms a part of the hymn of the Church most frequently sung in her honor. Could we be wrong in repeating the words of the very messenger of God? Elizabeth, the Virgin's cousin, considered it an honor for the Mother of her Lord to visit her. And whence is this to me that the Mother of my Lord should come to me? (Luke 1:43) Is there any real difference between saying Mother of God & Mother of the Lord? Surely, God is the Lord! (Psalm 118:27) in the course of her visit to Elizabeth, the Blessed Virgin spoke the words that form the principal hymn sung in her honor at the Matins service.
