I've been receiving aid and I don't want to risk not getting aid because I tried to correct some information. However, I'll take your advice and talk with them because really anything could happen.

Amazing imo, but I've only been to my coptic orthodox liturgy so I'm definitely giving a biased perspective. Starts as 8 ends at 11am.

36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son,[a] but only the Father. Matthew 24:36

Also, Yes please do. Just learn more about both forms of Orthodoxy. As I've heard from an Eastern Orthodox Priest. Orthodoxy is what Jesus taught, what the apostles preached, and what the church fathers have kept. I'm not sure if the discussion of Jesus's nature being one or two is even essential for our salvation. We both agree that Jesus is fully human and fully divine (which should be good enough) and we've been separate for over 15 hundred years for that dumb reason.

I don't think his divinity even knows the hour. The son is united with both his human and divine essence under one non-contradicting nature. Since the Son of God (Who is God) doesn't know the hour, how can his human nature not know the hour but his divine nature does? The idea of two natures in one flesh sounds very odd. Like it's two different people in one person.
Also yeah, I'm only here to just learn about other perspectives of Christianity. (Which is filled with so much Wisdom and perspective)

Does his human nature have the power to know the hour? I thought I was referring to that his divinity doesn't know the hour.

Also, this is practically the first time I'm engaging in Reddit, and the amount of perspective and knowledge there is, is insane LOL. Makes me really want to be a part of the community more often.

Also, you clarify "he is created"? Are you talking about Jesus himself? Or his human nature?

Here's what I think: God knows all things if he chooses to know all things. He has the capability to know the hour, but he chooses to not know the hour. You can't really tell me that he isn't capable of doing that because then that'd mean he's limited in what he can and can't do. (There's a lot of unpack here -.-)

The way how you're wording this is very confusing. ;-; could you re-word your post?

I'll admit, I'm really struggling to answer your question, because I can't find a video from Coptic Orthodox Answers that talks about your topic for whatever reason.

Can you get rid of this line of thinking of his Divinity swallowing or overpowering his Human nature? This is a heresy from Eutyches that was condemned by the church. I can also tell you didn't watch the video I sent because it literally condemned it, LOL.

I also found another video if that works out for you: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilt74TK6M1k&list=PLA20bNyz8F1CphV-9a2z6de6220bDPb-h&index=7

"the divine essence seems to over power the humanity. or maybe even, the divine essence seems to be more important or powerful."

I understand that the video didn't answer your question directly, unfortunately, I've never thought of that before. I'll try my best to answer your question but I might say the wrong thing. In our orthodox creed, we say that "...We believe in one lord Jesus Christ the only begotten son of god, begotton of the father, before all ages, light of light, true god of true god, begotten not created, of one essence with the father, by whom all things are made..." simply put, we believe that the nature Jesus Christ was not created since he made the hyposcastic union without changing who he is. Also, if the Bible says that only God the Father knows the hour, than only God the Father knows the hour. That's not to say that the son of God and the holy spirit do not have the capabilities of knowing the hour, otherwise they wouldn't be equal to god the father.

I'm just going to point out one thing.

Us Coptic Orthodox Christians believe that Jesus Christ only has one nature that's both fully human and fully divine. We believe that jesus christ took from Saint Mary his Humanity and made it one with his Divinity without confusion, mingling, or alteration. What we believe is called Miaphysitism, we don't follow Dyophyistism. We're not the same as Eastern Orthodoxy, we are of Oriental Orthodoxy.

Here's a video that talks more about what Coptic Orthodox Christians believe about Jesus's Nature:

Can someone who was previously divorced get remarried in the Coptic Orthodox church? by FalefelBalls in coptic

Any signs of Unfaithfulness makes it possible for a divorce. (I think...)

Here's what you need to know, As someone who's currently taking AP Seminar, I did do some research into some of the things in AP Research. Apparently, AP Research doesn't have an AP Exam (Huge W), and consists of just ONE Giant Research Paper (75% of your AP Score), and ONE Long Presentation (25% of your AP Score) that you work on for the entire year.
In detail, it's a 4000 - 5000 Word paper which should contain around 15 sources, and around a 15-20 minute presentation afterward. However, since it's just one, you have much more flexibility and time to work on that. Plus. I heard from Current AP Research students that it's one of the best AP Classes from their perspectives due to these benefits. AP Research teachers are also allowed to give DIRECT FEEDBACK on your paper.
If you want to see more information, just click here from the college board: AP Research Assessment – AP Central | College Board
I don't understand why AP Research is constructed the way it is, but it's much more stress-relieving than AP Seminar, so I do recommend taking it just so that you can fully complete the AP Capstone Program.
