I have no doubt you will continue to disregard the meaning of the passage, as your pattern has been.

Unfortunately for your wrested point of view, it doesn’t say what you claim.

This is always the problem for everyone who brings an idea into a passage and tries to prove the passage supports that idea (eisogesis), instead of starting with Gods Word and asking what it means and teaches (exegesis).

Best.

I proved, -- in fact, it is obvious, -- that in this passage:

the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he was betrayed, took bread. And giving thanks, broke, and said: Take ye, and eat: this is my body, which shall be delivered for you: this do for the commemoration of me. In like manner also the chalice, after he had supped, saying: This chalice is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as often as you shall drink, for the commemoration of me. For as often as you shall eat this bread, and drink the chalice, you shall shew the death of the Lord, until he come. Therefore whosoever shall eat this bread, or drink the chalice of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and of the blood of the Lord. But let a man prove himself: and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of the chalice. For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh judgment to himself, not discerning the body of the Lord. Therefore are there many infirm and weak among you, and many sleep. (1 Cor. 11:23-30)
the "body" and "blood" refers to the consecrated Eucharist because they cite the words of Christ referring to his body and blood at the Last Supper. When Protestants deny that, they look comical and do no favor to their religion. now everyone can see that Protestant theories are not based on the Holy Scripture altogether, but rather on your notions what the Scripture should or should not be saying.
