Comment posted The Mural tradition of Kerala Churches by Varghese Paul.

HERE IS MY LIST OF REFORMS:

1) Use the oldest (as far as one can go) form of Addi & Mari liturgy just as it was during the time of Addi & Mari them selves (which is the first centaury).
2) Use the Syrian Orthodox Peshitta (it very close to the Peshitta manuscripts in Esrengelo alphabets)
3) Teach both (1) the theological meaning of the liturgy and (2) to read and write Syriac in the Sunday categism
4) Change the Qurbana Qadisha to Ancient Syriac (books can be printed with the meaning given in Malayalam side by side)
5) remove the statues from inside the church to outside the church (probably the hardest to implement)
6) Abolish confession to priests (COE does not have this practice)
7) Change “Mother of God” to “Mother of Christ”
