JERUSALEM (CNN) -- An unusual sight greeted Jerusalem police as they entered one of Christianity's holiest sites Sunday morning: dozens of monks punching and kicking each other in a massive brawl.

Israeli police scuffle with an Armenian monk at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher on Sunday.

Monks from the Greek Orthodox and Armenian denominations were preparing for a ceremony at the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in the Old City when a disagreement led to a full-fledged fist fight.

Many among the dozens of monks came away with cuts and bruises, said police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld.

Officers were called to the scene to break up the brawl. They detained two monks, one from each denomination, Rosenfeld said. Watch police subdue crowed in church »

The Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem is thought to be built on the site of Jesus' crucifixion and resurrection.

Rivalries between the different sects that share control of the church often lead to tensions between the sides.

The original passion for Christ of a new believer often waxes cold and never regains the fervor it once had, even if they live 80 years or more as a believer.

Some wax cold and never even warm again.

Who has failed them?

The living body of believers.

Why?

.

When we were redeemed, we were called to make disciples, raising them up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord, so they in turn may do likewise.

Saying I am sorry is WORTHLESS without real repentance.

True or FALSE ?

Without a personal and intimate relationship with God, how can you ever realize the true identity and person of God?

Continue to be faithful, deliverance is near, obedience must be seen, be an unconditional blessing as He continues to bless you.

This time is short, serve Him well, serving all.

Without exception.

Know ?

Yes ?

For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.

i just got through watching that video.I was wondering what Jesus was thinking about it,just as I wonder what He thinks of all the fighting that goes on right here on the blogs & other places y Christians.
It doesn't make a good witness or do anything for Gods glory.

My uncle used to have a saying he kept on his dresser.
"Make sure brain is engaged before putting mouth in motion"

Christians should{me included}:

"Make sure spirit is engaged before putting mouth into motion and body into action".

WHAT!!!!!????? I cannot believe this... It's ridiculous... Let it not be us who raises a fist , sword or weapon against an ???alleged enemy.. Let us look hard into that face and see ourselves, our brother , our sister... from the same flesh, blood, and Spirit...

a terrible example for children... No wonder people won't set foot in a church, temple, synagogue..

We need to pray and repent, fast, whatever it takes....to become the Light that is already... and is soon returning
