As long as it's not an RC "priest" offering Jesus to the Father, because I will have none of that, it sounds like the Lord's supper to me.

You never discussed John 6:53-58 it is near the top, reproduced.

That does not the supper some evangelicals think it is, it isn't symbolic either. "My Flesh is real food." "This is my Body." The Priests of the Israelites, and now all Christians, can consume the Sacrifice perpetually, at Mass. It is as it was, before the apostles died, the Mass with the Body of Christ there for Christians to consume.

From Pentecost onwards, Christians wrote down the details of worshiping God, how the Mass was conducted, and what they believed. It is an unbroken record of devotion and faith in Christ's words.

The only reason Christianity was named Catholic is because the universal Church was sundered, and the Universal Church is Catholic, as opposed to the minor churches that separated from the Faith as it was practiced from the apostolic days.

So, claiming what you think it is, is different than what the Apostles said it is, which is: the Church was formed to teach men. This is the mind of Christ. This is his intention, and the foundation of the Church was in the Mass.

What of the Road to Emmaus, Luke 24:13-35, especially the last verse where the recognized Christ in the breaking of the Bread. Many Catholics interpret that as Christ showing the men that Breaking the Bread as it was done in the Last Supper was important, to recognize Christ. The Sacrifice had not ended, Christ continually washes us in his blood.

It sounds like the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass to me.

By the way, the word "priest" comes from the Greek presbyter or elder, so unless you've blacked out big parts of 1 and 2 Timothy and Titus, you have "elders" = "priests" in your Bible, too.
