The Crucifix of Coppell

കോപ്പെലിലെ ധീരപുരുഷന്മാര്‍ ഉയര്‍ത്തിയ കര്‍ത്താവിന്റെ ക്രൂശിത രൂപം.
പ്രിയപ്പെട്ട വായനക്കാരെ,
നിങ്ങള്‍ ഇത് കാണുമ്പോള്‍ ഇഷ്ടിക കൊണ്ടുണ്ടാക്കിയ ഭിത്തിയില്‍ കര്‍ത്താവിന്റെ ക്രൂശിത രൂപത്തിന്റെ പടം ഒട്ടിച്ചതായി തോന്നാം. എന്നാല്‍ സത്യം അതല്ല. ക്രൂശിത രൂപം സ്ഥാപിച്ചിരിക്കുന്നത് നിങ്ങള്‍ ഈ കാണുന്ന ഭിത്തിയുടെ പിറകിലാണ്. പഴയ ഉടമസ്ഥര്‍ അവരുടെ ഉപയോഗത്തിനായി പണി തീര്‍ത്തിരുന്ന ഒരു ഭിത്തിയായിരുന്നു അത്. എന്നാല്‍ കര്‍ത്താവിന്റെ ക്രൂശിത രൂപം പൊതുജനങ്ങള്‍ക്ക്  കാണാപ്പെടാതിരിക്കാനായിരിക്കാം ആ ഭിത്തി പൊളിച്ചു നീക്കാന്‍ 
ബിഷപ്പ് അങ്ങാടിയത്ത് അനുവദിച്ചില്ല.

I am a Syro Malabar member from Chicago.

Yes, Be with Christ’s Cross that is really our Holy Cross at the ends of the world.

It is time for the bishop to retire. Chicago people are also unhappy with the Bishops Angadiaths agenda. In Chicago he played a very dirty show behind the curtain and the whole church authorities were hiding the facts about the VEIL and the pagan cross to the faithful. Please do not trust the Bishop, the Vicar General and Chancellor anymore. They are the black marks of all Indian Christian community in USA. They mentally and spiritually abused the immigrant faithful in USA.

The Bishop is a deceit and he is working against the Catholic Church’s unity. Our so called Bishop and his opportunist circus clowns are crucifying our risen Christ every single day. After his inception as the bishop of the Syro Malabar church in USA, he failed to keep the faithful together and failed spiritually.

I cannot understand why the bishop could not understand the seriousness of the situation. I think the Bishop little slackly and lost self confidence. It is time for the bishop to retire.


!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; Romans 1:16.

He is 'the stone rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone.' There is no salvation by anyone else, for there is no other name under heaven given among people by which we must be saved.” Act4: 11-12.

Therefore let all the house of Israel know beyond a doubt that God has made this Jesus whom you crucified both Lord and Christ. Act2:36
!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!

Be with Christ’s Cross that is really our Holy Cross at the ends of the world.

Thanks for posting the shot!.

That is a beautiful statue of Our Lord with blue sky background. This statue is what we want to pray in a Church. The pain and suffering he suffered , will be our pain when we gaze at this Crucifix. This is what the laity want.

Chicagoan's need to learn from this !

It is not wise to just find fault with Angadiath , because he is under tremendous pressure from his peers!. "Peer Pressure" is what is called by kids who live in this generation. We/All need to outgrow from this peer pressure.

Hi Fellows:

Leave Bishop alone, he is helpless and powerless.

He is just obeying orders of the people who made him as our Bishop.

He also knows " To true Catholics, crucifix only matters and no other cross can replace the crucifix because cross became worthy as Jesus was crucified"

Hope Jesus can help this helpless Bishop!

Please help us all, oh Lord, to see things clearly and guide us to the unknown!!

Praise you Lord Jesus Amen

If you believe in Jesus, you would not say this, Bishop will have to answer Jesus our Lord one day for his intentions of removing crucifix and trying to put Claver in the alter.

In the alter Jesus only matters all the time,
church is the home of Jesus,
no other things should be put in the alter,
if you keep supporting this stupid idea of putting Claver in the alter,
you should be worried about the pain God going to give you and your family..
watch out fellow, so called catholic without real faith in Jesus, Jesus will reward you for this one day.

The Bishop and his advisor in USA is 100% accountable for the unholy and nontraditional situation of Syro Malabar Church in USA. He is playing double role. The Bishop cannot just ignore and ran away. He has the authority to order all parish vicars to remove the unholy elements from each church for the common interest of the church and faithful in USA. Let us pray for our bishop so that he can lead the sheep with the courage of St.Peter. Simon Peter was a man of action who had been refined 100 fold in fire.


Why the Bishop is inactive?
Is he acknowledging for Christ or for some foolish worldly people?
Is he lifting Jesus or lifting worldly man made Gods?
Why he is ashamed of the gospel our Lord Jesus Christ and the holy cross?
Why he is so interested in Marthoma cross than Holy Cross?
Is he really a shepherd of the SMC?
Is he under influence of another fig tree?
Who is his peer?
Is he under the influence some political organization in India? We are paying for the church and we are also contributing for the mother church in India.


Bible says!!!!!
May integrity and uprightness protect me, because my hope is in you (Psalm 25:21)
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture (Psalm 100:3)
For we do not write you anything you cannot read or understand. And I hope that,( Corinthians 1:13)

“For whoever is least among you all, this one will be great”(Luke 9:48)
So that with good courage we say, “The Lord is my helper. I will not fear. What can man do to me?” (Hebrews 13:6)

Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time; casting all your worries on him, because he cares for you (I Peter 5:6-7)

Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood (Acts 20:28)


Be with Christ’s Cross that is really our Holy Cross at the ends of the world.

If you are a true Catholic then read the following about mass in our churches:

Mass in the Catholic Church.

The Council of Trent reaffirmed traditional Christian teaching that the Mass is the same Sacrifice of Calvary offered in an unbloody manner:

"The victim is one and the same: the same now offers through the ministry of priests, who then offered himself on the cross; only the manner of offering is different.

And since in this divine sacrifice which is celebrated in the Mass, the same Christ who offered himself once in a bloody manner on the altar of the cross is contained and offered in an unbloody manner... this sacrifice is truly propitiatory" (Doctrina de ss. Missae sacrificio, c. 2, quoted in Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1367).

The Council declared that Jesus instituted the Mass at his Last Supper: "He offered up to God the Father His own body and blood under the species of bread and wine; and, under the symbols of those same things, He delivered (His own body and blood) to be received by His apostles, whom He then constituted priests of the New Testament; and by those words, Do this in commemoration of me, He commanded them and their successors in the priesthood, to offer (them); even as the Catholic Church has always understood and taught."

The Catholic Church sees the Mass as the most perfect way it has to offer latria (adoration) to God.
The Church believes that "The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it."

It is also Catholic belief that in objective reality, not merely symbolically, the wheaten bread and grape wine are converted into Christ's body and blood, a conversion referred to as transubstantiation, so that the whole Christ, body and blood, soul and divinity, is truly, really, and substantially contained in the sacrament of the Eucharist.

With crucifix in the alter the whole picture about real mass will be clear to us all.

This why we say we want to see only Crucifix in the alter all the time nothing else.
