The book is meant to be a biblical tour through the Mass parts, helping people understand the significance of all that we say and do in the liturgy.

Please provide the biblical basis for the practice of the “liturgy.”

It talked about how Protestants ministers were using it to understand biblical basis for the Mass.

I'm sure you will find that in the book. Why don't you get a copy and read it?

BTW, here are the Religion Moderator's Guidelines for Ecumenical Threads

Basically no antagonism.

PRESENTATION OF GIFTS

COLLECTION

Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation. Through your goodness we have this bread to offer, which earth has given and human hands have made. It will become for us the bread of life.
Blessed be God for ever.

Blessed are you, Lord, God of all creation. Through your goodness we have this wine to offer, fruit of the vine and work of human hands. I will become our spiritual drink.
Blessed be God for ever.

Pray, brethren, that our sacrifice may be acceptable to God, the almighty Father.

May the Lord accept the sacrifice at your hands for the praise and glory of his name, for our good, and the good of all his Church.

WE STAND UP


PRAYER OVER THE GIFTS
This prayer, said by the priest, is different in each single mass. Whe he finish we answer: Amen.

PREFACE AND EUCHARISTIC PRAYER

The Lord be with you.
And also with you.

Lift up your hearts.
We lift them up to the Lord.

Let us give thanks to the Lord our God.
It's right to give him thanks and praise.

Father, it is our duty and our salvation ...
... And so we join the angels and the saints in proclaiming your glory as we sing (say):

Holy, holy, holy Lord. God of power and might.
Heaven and earth are full of your glory.
Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.

WE KNEEL DOWN

Lord, you are holy indeed, the fountain of all holiness.
Let your Spirit come upon these gifts to make them holy,
so that they may become for us the body + and blood of our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Before he was given up to death, a death he freely accepted, he took bread and gave you thanks. He broke the bread, gave it to his disciples, and said:
Take this, all of you, and eat it: this is my Body which will be given up for you.
When supper was ended, he took the cup. Again he gave you thanks and praise, gave the cup to his disciples, and said:
Take this, all of you, and drink from it; this is the cup of my Blood, the Blood of the New and Everlasting Covenant. It will be shed for you and for all men so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of me.
Let us proclaim the mystery of faith.

Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again .

WE STAND UP

In memory of his death and resurrection,
we offer you, Father, this life-giving bread, this saving cup. ....


...Through him, with him, in him, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, all glory and honour is yours, almighty Father,
for ever and ever.
Amen.

RITE OF COMMUNION


Let us pray with confidence to the Father in the words our Saviour gave us:

OUR FATHER

Deliver us, Lord, from every evil, and grant us peace in our day. In your mercy keep us free from sin and protect us from all anxiety as we wait in joyful hope for the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, now and forever.

Lord Jesus Christ, you said to your apostles: "I leave you peace, my peace I give you", look not on our sins, but on the faith of your Church, and grant us the peace and unity of your kingdom where you live for ever and ever.
Amen.

The peace of the Lord be with you always.
And also with you.

WE GIVE EACH OTHER A SIGN OF PEACE

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us.

Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
have mercy on us.
Lamb of God, you take away the sins of the world,
grant us peace.


This is the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. Happy are those who are called to his supper.

Lord, I am not worthy to receive you,
but only say the word and I shall be healed
.

WE GO TO RECEIVE COMMUNION

At the moment of communion the priest or the minister will say: The body of Christ.
We must answer:Amen.

WE RETURN TO OUR PLACE AND WE TAKE A SIT TO PRAY QUIETLY

WE STAND UP

PRAYER AFTER COMMUNION
This prayer, said by the priest, is different in each single mass. Whe he finish we answer: Amen

 

CONCLUDING RITE

 The Lord be with you.
And also with you.

May almighty God bless you, the Father, and the Son,
and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.

Go in the peace of Christ.
Thanks be to God.

**Sri: I have had a number of Protestant Christians express gratitude for this project. Some have noted how it has helped them appreciate the Mass more and how they never realized how biblical the Mass was. While the primary audience I had in mind was Catholic, I am hopeful that the book might be of service to our Protestant brothers and sisters, helping explain the Mass in Biblical terms that they may find more appealing.**

Salvation I do not doubt your good intentions. Obviously though there is a segment of the population (the FR population) that is antagonistic toward Catholicism and will be regardless of reading, logic, debate or facts.

But I can hardly wait for the new translations. No such thing as being a ‘holy rebel’. My priest says we have to wait until Advent.
