And we do not. It is a re-presentation of the same one-time Sacrifice on Calvary

Every other Catholic on this forum claims your Eucharist is your religion sacrificing Jesus in a re-presentation of His first sacrifice...No doubt you've said it as well...

343. What is the Holy Eucharist?

The Holy Eucharist is a sacrament and a sacrifice. In the Holy Eucharist, under the appearances of bread and wine, the Lord Christ is contained, offered, and received.

This is right from your EWTN Eucharist page...You don't seem to know much about the Catholic church...I'm thinking maybe you're a Jehovah Witness...

I'm so sorry you don't understand.

And I'm not qualified in remedial instruction, so I cannot help you.

Let me try, though: When the Sacrifice on Calvary is represented in the Holy Eucharist, it is a sacrifice. It is NOT, however, a re-sacrifice. It is the same Sacrifice re-presented by the power of the Holy Spirit, as Christ commands.

That probably won't be sufficient because, as I've said, I have no training in remedial education.

But your big gotcha moment is a decayed and decrepit nothingness.

You don't seem to know much about the Catholic Church...

I'm sorry you're so wrong.

I'm thinking maybe you're a Jehovah Witness...

Perhaps you have abandoned all logic and common sense and thus crash into such a ridiculous conclusion.

Embrace discernment: it is a gift from God.

The EUCHARIST is the RE-REPRESENTATION of the Lord's ONE-TIME and ETERNAL SACRIFICE.



The EWTN website is correct -- it IS a sacrifice. Petronski is correct -- it is a non-bloody, re-representation of the Lord's eternal, singular sacrifice. Try reading the Catechism. You might learn something.
