The priest's personal sinfulness does not invalidate his act of Consecration.

Would hatred of God invalidate his act of Conescration? How about those who have joined the preisthood just so they can bugger each other, not have to work or are able ruin everything for the rest of us?

Would you want your child taking communion from such a person? Would Christ want him giving it? I'm asking not arguing as a differ to many in here who are more knowledgable.

Here's what was stated:

If your priest is a one of the enemy’s infiltrators that have penetrated our church or a God hating homosexual who is waking up with his boyfriend Sunday morning before putting his hands on your communion wafer, you are not receiving the body of Christ.

Whether anyone realizes it or not there are many ill-intended agents of the enemy in our church right now, at all levels. They are NOT our friends and they have nothing to do with God, and IMO have no business anywhere near the Body under any circumstances.

As I suggested ... the personal sinfulness of the priest is irrelevant. The possible lack of right intention on the part of the priest is extremely relevant. And I've met a few that I have to wonder if they have the right intention. The "God haters" probably do not have right intention ... and the problem is to discern who they are and avoid them.
