If the priesthood (ordained or otherwise) stood between a person and Christ, I would oppose it myself. However, its purpose, like all of the sacraments, is quite the opposite: it is to mediate the presence of Christ, that is to make Him present, not serve in His absence

That statement is quite ridiculous in view of the words of God in scripture...Who in your religion made that up???

No one has to make Christ present...He is present already...

You poor people...They have conned you into believing you have to go to a Catholic Church where you can point to a wafer on an altar and claim 'Christ is there'...There he is...

With actual Christians, Jesus Christ resides within the body of the Christian...It doesn't matter where we are, Jesus is ALWAYS in us and with us...And you eat this wafer hoping to get what actual Christians already have...

And to think some man could summon or demand Jesus come down from heaven for any purpose is a fool...And the person who claims he brought Jesus down from heaven is a liar...

The muzlim Allah resides in a black rock...The Catholic Jesus resides in a wafer...

AND in a dark room where the uneaten wafers are placed after the Mass. Jesus warned that men would say ‘here is Christ, there is Christ’ in the last days, just as the fraudulent Roman Catholic religion claims for their ‘mass’ ceremony.

We have been warned!!


Matthew 24:23

If anyone says to you then, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’ or, ‘There he is!’ do not believe it.
