Ethiopian Orthodox Brothers. Slavic people love you. ☦️
Thank you brother. We love you all as well. May the Lord grow us in our walk with Him!

@@haylemichaelabera986 a lot of people don't know there are Orthodox Christians in Africa too. Especially in Egypt
What Rite do they use?
@@E.C.2 what?
The more we learn about the church the more we fall in love with it ቃለ ህይወት ያሰማልን❤✝️
@Selamawit Debebe very true!!!
Hello Brothers! greetings from Costa Rica, I'm one of the few eastern orthodox christians in the country. I hope one day we may resolve the calcedonian controversy and be in communion, may the will of the Lord be made.
I'm really interested in learning about the Ethiopian church, of late there's been a lot of dissatisfaction about Christianity in the African youth and the black race in general claiming Christianity is the religion of the colonizers and slave masters...I think it's a great time for evangelists and missionaries from the Ethiopian and Egyptian churches to reach out to the black people, so that we can own our Christianity. Hope to visit Ethiopia soon for more insights...
Its good to u until u come for visit u can learn from the youtube the teaching of the church and if their is a church with ur nearby go and ask the priest and learn the teaching when the day come u will be part of Christ through baptism.
Many "Church Fathers" were from Africa. Do you know that Tertullian who was a North African is the "Father of Latin Christianity" and the "Founder of Western Theology"? The history of christianity specially the ancient christianity is greatly tied with Africa particularly Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan. 💖
We're here in the west, we're just small. Where do you live, I'm sure there's an Ethiopian, Eritrean or Coptic church near you
"The more we learn about the Church, the more we fall in love with it." This is very true. St. Jared (ቅዱስ ያሬድ) of Ethiopia said the following about the Church: "ርኢክዋ፣ አእመርክዋ፣ አፍቀርክዋ" meaning "I saw her, I knew her, I loved her."
I was born in France from Senegalese parents. I always wondered about Ethiopia 🇪🇹 . Everything you explain in the video indicates that this particular group of Ethiopian have nothing to do with Roll or the Catholic Church, and I am glad! Now you never said anything about the Gospel. I was born and raised a Muslim in a Catholic nation but then when I read in the United States I heard the true gospel of Jesus Christ and I believe that. I am now a Baptist which comes from Anabaptist which come from the people who were persecuted for 1400 years by the Catholic Church and other groups. The same Gospel message (Free Gift) Jesus taught the apostles and the apostles to all men throughout the world.
I respect the Ethiopian Church more than any other church, but what rational Muslim would convert from Islam to Christianity unless he didn’t understand his religion very well? Islam is the natural progression of all the earlier Prophets’ messages. The Quran sent by God settles the disputes surrounding the nature of Jesus. All existing Christian sects are only the result of human speculation about Jesus’s nature without divine authorization. Interestingly enough, the Ethiopian Church led by Negus As-Huma, accepted Islam during Muhammad’s time. This paved the way to the flourishing of Islam in Ethiopia today.
@@yushaq2434 the Quran is false. It contains the worst possible absurdities, and the Quran contains zero prophecies. The personage of Islam couldn’t perform a single miracle and he contradicted the gospel of Jesus Christ. The personage of Islam didn’t speak for God just to let you know.
@@yushaq2434
Dear Muslim
Don't try to.manipulate like the west or using taqiya like the Arab Muslims who came to africa to slave blacks.
Mr Muhammad the founder of islam and his companions ran away from persecution in Arabia and asked help to the orthodox Christian kingdom to get a safe heaven in the first hijira and the orthodox kingdom gave them a.protection and a place to stay. Mr Muhammad agreed on Ethiopian bible.
Ethiopia is the first Christian nation.
Islam tried to attack Ethiopia so many times but failed.
Sahih Hadith telling us
Mr Muhammad bought sold and traded black slaves.
Mr Muhammad the founder of islam had 16 privileges given by so called Allah or himself and most of them are sexual preferences.
Islam is a cult founded by a mad Arab and a false prophet.
Mr Muhammad took a six year old and had intercourse when she was nine year ld girl.
That is a rape.
May our lord the sinless living holy God open your eyes.
Your brother from the Coptic orthodox church, we are happy for the oromia church to be back to the mother tewahdo church. May god bless you
I rly wish I was a twahdo orthodox I was born in a protestant family but before that my mum was an orthodox and she had bad experience with it, and a lot of ppl I know are former twahdo orthodox. I'm rly in love with the twahdo church and everything else💕💕
bad experiance?
@@sorrycant8844 yeah her father and mother were alcoholic and the orthodox church she went to wasn't vary region's, she wanted to be closers to God (my mother)
@@nayatheboss1541 ayguu... parents really mess children up. i wish there was a system that assess weather u are ready to be a parent before u actually become one.
for me the EOTC is ... beyond word. i wish u would investigate things on ur own and see the beauty of the Ethiopian orthodox tewahdo church.
It’s not too late. Still you can learn and choose. May the Spirit of God guides you
@@nayatheboss1541 u can be an Orthodox now go to ur near by church and ask the priest and learn the church teachings and be a part of christ
Crazy how you put 2000 years of history so simply like this, thank you! It’s interesting to see looking back how all the schisms have political roots, part of me wants to be able to have one universal church, but I love the diversity of beauty different cultures worldwide have expressed their faith in Christ. Perhaps you could discuss differences in culture/practice between the oriental churches for your next topic?
Very well put.
Ethiopian church is a true church of our Lord. Your calendar as well 😊
May God bless you! It is really helpful for people who does speak English. Short but informative. Good job and bless you more
A very good video, and this is coming from a catholic! May God bless you all, I pray our churches can one day be reunited.
As a life long Catholic I am fascinated by your church. Please Keep videos like this going because I find them so rich in knowledge. I would like to visit a church but am worried about the cultural barriers do you have any suggestions?
You are always welcome. Culture should be a barrier.
Come and see❤
Wow ,I love the drawings!
I think it’s wonderful what you do for the Orthodox Tewahedo Church so the word of God can spread all over the world. Your videos helped me a lot to understand our faith more!God bless you!🙏🏾✝️
Love from Germany
It is a miracle that I ran into your page as I was trying to find explanation between our Towhaedo and the Greeks/Eastern Orthodox. Bless you our brother in Christ, may you continue with your teachings as it really does help those who are living in Western society and their children born here.
Best
You seem very knowledgeable about the scripture and our culture and good to have some one like you with the same culture with me and fellow Ethiopian. I have one question for you, I am a believer of salvation is by grace through faith in Christ alone, solace christos, solace fidae and solace gracia. Do you have same stand on this? Please elaborate. Stay blessed.
Very informative video!! Learned alot I hadn't already known!! Love my beautiful faith even more because of this. Glory be to God!! I hope you to continue to educate the youth!
Love this! Sent this link to my children. They may be already subscribed. Though they learn in Church and in Saturday school this is very interesting and entertaining for the youth and recent converts like myself. "In Hoc Signo Vinces" - Constantine. May God Bless and Protect ETOC.
Wow, I learned so much in this short segment. I am so proud of you Dawit for taking your time to learn so much about your country religious history. Because of you, I have something
to teach my 14 year old son. Thank you so much and God bless.
Short and brief history of the church. I really liked it! May the blessings of God be with abundantly! and please don't stop here! Go ahead!
Selam, Dawit
It's VERY interesting to listen to this very educational topic!
Please keep on giving such basic topics to the young generation. In general, we ALL benefit from your teaching!!
Thank you for your time!
God Bless You!

Thank you so much! I have been blessed to have an amazing Aunt who always gave me credit advice:)
ቃል ሕይወት ያሰማልን. We have to share this kind of videos to our community! And we need more videos like this.
The more we learn about the church the more we fall in love with it
ቃለ ህይወት ያሰማልን !!!
Thank you very much i was searching about the different between oriental orthdox and eastern orthodox now atleast you give me a clue that they are not the same but many people are concidering eastern orthodox and oriental orthodox as one church
I hope you will give a breif info about the two churches theological differences
Basically the Eastern Orthodox also followed the teaching of Pope Leo, meanwhile the Oriental Orthodox followed Saint Dioscorus and the Orthodox teachings
The Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Churches are closer than ever to re-entering union though, praise God.
Please keep this up! I love watching these and learn so much through COVID!
That's A Verry good starting point and beautiful drawings. Thank you Dn May God hears you Word's of life. Please keep it up I hope this platform is interesting for youths.
Love from Home, Ethiopia.
Thank you so much 😀
Looking forward to more historical videos like this!!
A great technique to spread the history of our church. God bless you brother.
quite insightful! Thank you Deacon. May you hear the word of life 🙏🙏🙏
I am so glad I stumbled upon this video. The more we learn about the church the more we fall in love with it Short and brief history of the church. I really liked it! May the blessings of God be with abundantly! ቃለ ህይወት ያሰማልን !!!
May God bless you for all these resources for our Church!
I Like this teaching. Thank you very much. Temesgen Amlach. May The Lord Bless you.✝️🙏🏾
Thank you this is beautifully done ቃለህይወት ያሰማል I just found this Channel and subscribing . May እግዚአብሔር bless you 💚💛❤️
Love your information! But your background music is a bit too loud. Could you reload them with lower background music? Thank you.
You are doing a wonderful work. You ought to have a lot more subscribers. I am Roman Catholic, but am enjoying your perspective.
Give Thanks Learned Brother 🙏.
I thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for you and the knowledge that you are making available.
I am from the Caribbean and am beginning my journey along the path of Ethiopian Orthodox Teachings.
I pray that he has seen fit to provide a way for me to visit and study the true wisdom in the near future that i may carry the truth to those young minds Starving for the Blessing of this knowledge.
This is a wonderful video. Love your work. Love the multicultural depictions of the characters you draw. Blessings!
Kale Hiywot yasemalin. I like the drawings
This is brilliant. God bless my brother. This is so helpful for my non-amharic speaking friends who are eager to learn about Tewahido.
just a note, Constantine didn't outlaw pagan religions, that was his grandson Theodosius, Constantine merely made Christianity tolerated and promoted the religon
My brother in Christ greetings. I would like to express my gratitude. Your video was very precise. You presentation was phenomenal. You covered so much ground in 7 mins. We need more video non native Amharic speakers so they can be part this beautiful, realistic house of God. Tewhado. And Kidist Betchrstian Mahider Melkot
Saint Cyrill of Alexandria said two natures in the incarnate son - God and human. Both fully. Why does the Tewahedo church teach only "one nature of Christ"?
No he said, from the two came one nature. Hypostatic union, the union of natures. True Christ is fully God and Man but the two natures have been united in to one incarnate nature.
I L&S amazing video, I’m recently saved baptised in SDA here in the UK and learning more each day. I really want to know more about the original teachings, which bible contains the original verses and I’ve been lead to Ethiopia orthodox tawehedo church home of Emperor Haile Selassie etc. It seems to me the Ethiopian Bible still contains books which were taken out and I’m not sure about my denomination anymore and just want to follow Christ instead of any corrupt teachings God bless you and thanks for your work here I’ve learn a lot 🕊🕯✝️
This is so beautifully and eloquently presented. I learnt a lot. Thank you!!
May you here the word of life! I found it very important! Keep up the good work!
It’s great to learn more about Christianity in Africa and this ancient Church
Amazing work. More videos like this pls🙏🏾
Excellent excellent video!!! Thank you so much Dr. Dawit!! Learned a lot just by watching this video.
Kalotin yasemalin Dn Dawit. I admire everything you do. Let's God gives you his wisdom more and more.
Thank you for the time you took to make this informative video. It was delivered in a very refreshing and engaging way with the right amount of humor in it.
So interesting!!! There’s an EOTC at the end of my street so I’ve been wanting to find an overview so I could understand what it’s all about. This was an awesome video. ❤
Ethiopia orthodox tewahedo church, I want to see more videos❤ your videos send more of them so I can watch them and learn them at the same time and the same day I am 10 years old so I want to learn about my religion and the deacons and the priest in the church then I want to learn kudus kudus kudus.
Concise and very informative. Thanks Brother.
Man, i love this ❤ how i wish videos like this existed a few years ago. God bless you for your work
I'm so glad I came across ur videos brother.. even though I follow n see many Greek n Coptic church videos..I've wished to find videos that'd teach me abt my church in Ethiopia in a simple way n from the origins just like what u're doing.. I've always loved the church n it has been embarrassing to not have known much..I hope u keep making more videos may God protect u n bless u
Your right. I need to take notes. Thanks for teaching.
WoooooW! I looked It's how so very interested. May God bless you more & more.
††† May God hear to you a word of life †††
Keep it up bro.
Did you make a video on the difference between Oriental and Eastern Orthodox ? Thank you
Emperor Constantine did not made Christianity a national religion of the Roman empire. The Edict of Milan simply gave a legal status to Christianity. It was emperor Theodosius I officially made Christianity the official religion of the Roman empire in Thessaloniki 380 AD. Please correct this!
I really like your channel. I really struggle with things like Enoch and apocrypha. I doubt I’ll ever stop. (It’s very easy to trust in the books we ALL agree on)
But I love this history stuff and try hard to listen to my heart
What about the book of Enoch?
Tewahedo tradition is older than other modern Orthodox who reject scripture, calling it apocryphal.
Greetings brother, I am a catechumens at an Eastern Orthodox Church. I have been lead to the Ethiopian Tewahedo Church but there is no church I can drive to on an ongoing basis. Do you know how someone like me may join? May God bless you. It was God who used your videos to open my eyes to so much.
you may talk to Dn. Gorgorios Dejene. he lives in the U.S.
I learned some things from this! I've been studying Church history for a long time. I'm not familiar with those teachings that you say came from the Jesuits. I'm Latin Catholic, and know that the weakness of human communication caused different language and cultural groups to misunderstand one another when defining concepts to each other. I know it's important to get it right, so I wouldn't say it's not important how we express things. I just wonder if those 2 false teachings you refer to fall into a misunderstanding of the concepts being expressed? But I leave it to the Hierarchy to agree on proper expression. May we be one as Christ and the Father are One.
Very deep and detailed analysis with state-of the-art graphics.
Kale Hiwot yasemalen. Egzihaber Yibarkachu for this amazing production!
this help me understand what I basically new already better, and learned some newer things at the same time..thank you
Amazing!! Thank you
Kale hiwot yasemalin
Very informative and i hope to attend very soon. Fascinating history involved with ge ez.😊
Wow this was amazing Glory to be God
The term "orthodox" as understood today in "orthodox Church" was coined by the pope of Rome Leo III when the german emperor Charlemagne tried to add the "filioque" to the christian symbol. Pope Leo III nailed the symbol written in both greek and latin on the doors of St Peter Church of Rome, adding those words : I Leo did this for the sake and love of the orthodox faith.
for eastern and western Orthoox Apostolic and catholic faith.
You're doing great work Dawit. Did you study theology?
Thank you for explaining orthodox Tewahedo church
ቃለ ሕይወት ያሰማል። Stay Blessed

I would like to say thank you so much for your teaching us in English about my our every thing title !!!

You skip over the Council of Florence reunion.
Which Rite do the Ethiopians use?
The Lutheran Church has a record of fellowship between The Orthodox Tawahedo Church and the Lutheran Church established by one Deacon Michael. Do you have a record of this event?
ALMIGHTY HOLY HOLY HOLY GOD BLESS ALL OF US !!!
Dear Ethiopian Christian Brothers we love you and pray for you. God bless you the Greek Orthodox

You did a very useful great program.
Greetings brother. What advice may you have for an english speaker wishing to convert? God bless you.
Go to a local EOTC church and talk to a priest there 1st
You really glossed over the 1054 schism and all that lead to it. But great video. Very well done.
1052.1053 in 1054 was it only formalised
So wait I have a question. Great presentation by the way. My question is was “The Son” fully man fully divine after or before his incarnation from Virgin Mary. I know some books in the Bible saw the son of man before he even came down to this world (the book of Enoch & Daniel). I just want to rap my head around it. I’m a bit confused thank you so much!
The was God jn ch1 when he born from virgin Mary he be become fully man and fully God with out separation.
kale hiwot yasemalin, that was an amazinng presentation keep it up.
Great teaching. Thank you for sharing!
May you hear the word of God! We need more content like this from EOTC!
I love the explanation but I have a question why do you use only caucaion people in ur illustration the land of kush is know for the land of burnt people.
The bible is Africa's history.o
Yes. I did. Thank you brother. Kale hiwot yasemalene.
bro keep it up much support we need more videos like this
May God bless you Brother!

The word Church is an English thing. The word Ecclesia is not "old" it is still the name in Greek and Latin. And other languages don't use the term Church.
Thank you my dear! I wish so more

I have been called to Tewahedo for many years now & am eager to learn as much as I can, there is a church local to me, very small, not sure if they are still operating or not.
