“aMPU, one can’t prove things by assertion, nor solidify a conclusion by re-assertion. It’s more interesting if you keep that in mind“

Just stating the fact that what you wrote is not in Scripture.

You should judge your original statement by the same standard...

A teacher of Catholiciism apply the same standard to her effluence that she erases truth from your posts with? Hah! That’ll be the day. Theboutious pride driving the Org will not accept that challenge!

I wrote much on the Biblical origins of the Mass shown in Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Peter, Paul, Hebrews, and Revelation. I would not be surprised if you missed a lot of it, buried as it in 903+ replies on this incredibly voluminous thread. None of us can read or assimilate or do justice to such turgid torrent of human utterance.

The most striking thing about your failure to recognize the Scriptural roots of the Mass, is that it flows directly from the way you "eat and drink" without discerning Body. Paul says that those who do this, "have to answer for the Body and Blood of the Lord." (Cor. 11:23-29)

I don't condemn you; it is not my vocation to be your judge. But as Paul warns, it is the Lord's judgment which should concern us.

You seem so thoroughly marinated in anti-Catholic distortions, that you can't recognize the Biblical argument even when it's in quite plain language. Whether there is any remedy for such pervasive prejudice --- probably innocent and inadvertent on your part ---only God knows.

But God is merciful, and I pray His mercy upon all. I will certainly pray for you; and as always, I hope the prayers will be mutual.
