To: Campion; Mr Rogers
“I also should point out that we are offering precisely that same “once for all” sacrifice of which you speak. Not a new sacrifice, not a different sacrifice."

I had a good Labor Day breakfast this morning...It was not the same or a continuation of the Labor Day breakfast I ate in 1959...That breakfast is gone...Never to be repeated...

Jesus died once...Never to die again...And never to continually die...

Jesus can not continually die...Jesus is not on the Cross...

Mar 16:6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.

The scripture does not allow for your interpretation nor your tradition...

IF your religion wants to make the claim that it's priests turn a wafer into the flesh of Jesus and that they turn wine into the blood of Jesus, that's fine....

IF your religion wants to claim Jesus is still on the Cross with you guys re presenting His sacrifice for you on a daily and hourly basis, that's fine as well...

But don't then drag the scriputres into it...That portion of your theology has nothing to do with scripture...In fact, it's contrary to scripture...

Jesus is not here...He is risen, never to be sacrificed nor continue to be sacrificed again...

Joh 19:28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

Joh 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

It is finished and had been for 2000 years...

IF your religion wants to claim Jesus is still on the Cross . . .

You are mistaken. Campion is Catholic. The Catholic Church does not claim Jesus is still on the Cross.

I suppose you condemn the Iwo Jima memorial because it claims those Marines are still atop the mountain holding the flag.
