| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Liturgy |
 | | The Ethiopic Liturgies, used by the Church of Abyssinia. | | | On the one hand, liturgy often means the whole complex of official services, all the rites, ceremonies, prayers, and sacraments of the Church, as opposed to private devotions. | | | The Liturgy, as it crystallized in these centres, became the type for the other Churches of their patriarchates. |

| | Christian liturgy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Eastern Orthodox churches call the liturgy in which the Eucharist is celebrated and served the Divine Liturgy. | | | This can also refer to the detailed rubrics for this ceremony; two of the best known are the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom and the Divine Liturgy of St. Basil the Great. | | | Remnants of a division between the first half of the liturgy, open to both Church members and those wanting to learn about the church, and the second half, the celebration of the Eucharist proper, open only to baptized believers in good standing with the Church. |

| | Liturgy: Week of Prayer for Christian Unity |
| | After the official recognition of the Christian religion at the beginning of the 4 th century, the church of Aleppo was constituted as a suffragan eparchy of the See of Antioch; it was at that time that churches were built, and convents set up with a flowering of hermitages and monastic cells. | | | The spiritual unity of all Christians who wish to prayer for peace in the world in this year 2004 and for their communion in faith in the Risen Christ, who is its source, will be clearly evident. | | | Christians are called to witness to peace through the gentleness, humility and patience of God, who is present in the life of each person. |

| | The Liturgy of the Hours |
| | The early writings of the Christian Church bear witness to a prayer tradition that is rich in eschatological symbols. | | | Throughout the early centuries of Christianity, preachers admonished Christians to spend their entire lives in prayer. | | | Whatever the relationship between Christian and Jewish traditions for morning and evening prayers, a great variety of prayer patterns flourished in the Christian Churches throughout the Roman Empire and beyond during the first few centuries of Christianity. |

| | Liturgy: Praxis & Pistis |
| | And, it is not the fault of liturgy that its observers abide in ignorance of its meaning. | | | Among these kinds of Christians, excepting the word “Gregorian,” most of the ideas or concepts called to mind by the word “chant” were from the realm of the non-Christian or the non-religious. | | | A record of the evolving understanding of Christian liturgy by an ordinary Christian who came to faith among the 20th Century great-grandsons of Ulrich Zwingli. |

| | Early Christian Liturgics |
| | The Divine Liturgy focused on the Eucharist as the mystery and sacrament of that Kingdom is indeed a living continuity with the beliefs and practices of early Christianity. | | | Christian worship is of the Kingdom of God and is to show forth the Kingdom — spiritually and symbolically. | | | Secondly, worship in the temple — and in fact all Christian worship — was and is to reflect worship in Heaven. |

| | Amazon.ca: Books: Christian Liturgy |
| | 'Liturgy that is catholic is that which serves the public proclamation of the gospel in word and sacraments as celebrated by the whole people of God in Christ Jesus.... | | | Liturgy that is catholic is that which expresses the faith and way of life (i.e., culture) of a whole people, but within an ecumenical shape by which it maintains a sense of continuity with catholic churches of other times and places.' | | | The book itself is very large (nearing 800 pages) and covers virtually all aspects of worship practises in Christianity from the earliest beginnings to the present innovations and continuing reformations/reconstructions both in denominational senses and a broader, more ecumenical sense. |

| | Liturgy and Attitudes to the Christian or Jewish "Other" |
| | The Christian depiction of Judaism as "legalistic" may be more pronounced in Reformation churches, and, in fact, be a more potent source of anti-Jewish sentiments than the crucifixion. | | | At this and many other occasions Christians should be encouraged to relate this call to that of the Jewish people, so that we become a blessing to each other and then to the world. | | | By pitting one against the other, Christian preachers bolstered the position of the Church with regard to people in Jewish communities of their own time. |

| | Tantrik Worship and Christian Liturgy |
| | As the Christian Liturgy speaks of the presence of the Lord in the Eucharist, the Preisdent and the Church, the Tantriks also hold that Divinity is present in the Enlivened Image, the Officer and the Temple. | | | Bandopadhyaya, a celebrated Tantrik authority of Bengal opined ``We believe that the Sadhana of the Moslems and the esoteric religious rituals of the Christians of the Roman Catholic Church and Greek Churches are based on the Tantras....Many historians acknowledge that the worship of Sakti or Tantrik Sadhana spread into Phoenicia and Greece. | | | The Deity is thus believed to be present in the Image as the Christians believe in the presence of God, in the Church, after its sanctification by the High Priest. |

| | CGR: Earliest Christian liturgy |
| | Christian scholarship is the Church's prodigious invention to defend itself against the Bible, to ensure that we can continue to be good Christians without the Bible coming too close. | | | There is a difference between Liturgy and Worship. | | | For them, since they do not celebrate the Mass - Their ceremony (I do not say liturgy) is Worship. |

| | Handbook to the Christian Liturgy: Regional Rites- The West |
| | In that liturgy the offerers were mentioned during the reciting of the Diptychs which preceded the Canon. | | | The divergence which took place between the East and the West in liturgical matters was due to a number of causes, of which the substitution of Latin for Greek, leading to mutual ignorance of one another's rites, and the fact that the Western Empire decayed much earlier than the Eastern, are perhaps the chief. | | | Here he is referring to the practice of foot-washing, which he tells us was not in use in the Roman Church, but which he defends as a command from the Lord. |

| | Indeed, the prayer is apparently not restricted to Christians, for elsewhere Justin says that the Church prayed for the Jews and for all men. | | | On the other hand, the adherents of Christianity in the earliest days must have unconsciously formed their devotions according to the methods to which they were accustomed. | | | It immediately follows after the form for the Consecration of a bishop; but although it is the liturgy used in connexion with that function, it seems also to be the one used on ordinary occasions. |

| | We also thank You for this liturgy which You are pleased to accept from our hands, even though You are surrounded by thousands of Archangels and tens of thousands of Angels, by the Cherubim and Seraphim, six-winged, many-eyed, soaring with their wings, | | | For all these things we thank You and Your only begotten Son and Your Holy Spirit; for all things that we know and do not know, for blessings seen and unseen that have been bestowed upon us. | | | For the completion of our lives in peace and repentance, let us ask the Lord. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Adam in Early Christian Liturgy and Literature |
| | His name occurs in the calendar, and in one hymn of the Eastern Church, nor does he fare much better in the Western. | | | Adam's importance to the Fathers and to the authors of the many apocryphal writings of the first five centuries of the Christian Era is clearly shown by their frequent allusions to him. | | | His p]ace in the liturgy is however, by no means a prominent one. |
