Rnmom: I adore God, not a piece of bread, I trust Jesus to save me, not a piece of bread .

NYer: A consecrated host is NOT a piece of bread and you especially, as a former catholic, know better than to post that comment.

NYer, is it now inappropriate for Protestants, who were former Catholics, to state their beliefs in the Religion Forum?

I absolutely agree with Rnmom's statement. Do I get a subtle lecture too?

It is well established Protestant’s don’t believe in the Real Presence. It is also well established that neither Catholic nor Orthodox Christians believe a consecrated host is a piece of bread.

What else can we say except we agree to disagree?

Of course not ... how did her comment become a 'statement of faith'? Like Mom, I adore God and I trust Jesus to save me. She may have abandoned her faith in the Real Presence but Christ has not abandoned His faith in her.

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, "Take and eat; this is my body."
Matthew 26:26
