The story of a Eucharistic Miracle that happened in Kumasi a city in Ghana in the 1990s. A Protestant man took the picture of the Monstrance during the Corpus Christi procession and after the image was processed, an image of Jesus Christ was the result.

Hi CB - To be fair Christ I believe is talking about his whole Physical being not a sign. He is talking about an imposter as a person.

I would have tended to agree with you but am no longer sure it doesnt also include these instances. When these so called images are used to prove that the images illustrate the association of the individual, group, organization, or entity involved as the one who represents Christ it seems to me that its analogous to here is Christ.
We can also apply the following verses it seems to me.
Why does this generation ask for a miraculous sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to it (Mark 8:12).
An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah (Matthew 12:39, 16:4).
To: johngrace
I would also caution that the Anti Christ and the False Prophet will also use miracles.
To: CynicalBear
The Holy Spirit can help you with that since he is inside of us. Through heavy prayer I can tell things myself. Like during Christmas time when all these Christmas internet radio has songs done by the Mormon tabernacle Choir I can tell that spirit is way off from the Holy Spirit. Even though they sing the words the spirit is wrong. They still do not believe 1John4 .
This miracle I am not convinced myself either.

“I am a former catholic...”.
Whenever I read words like these my first thought is always, “this person is no longer receiving Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament which is the Body, Blood Soul and Divinity of our loving creator.
Won’t you reconsider coming back home, the Eucharist is worth it!

Your statement has all the trappings of a cult. I have been set free by the Word of God, and by Christs death on the cross. I receive communion at my church, one is not saved by communion, nor by doing it in a certain way. I am set free from your enslavement. I belong to Christ. What good is the Eucharist going to do a person who receives it already, and belongs to Christ already? Do you think we are doing it wrong? And you are doing it right? and by doing so are saved? Oh how I praise God I am free from those like you.

I second your statement Hegewisch Dupa. Some people knows what Christ can and can’t do. Quite interesting . . . :)

To: Theo
"We proclaim Jesus death by eating the BREAD (to use Jesus words and Pauls words). You can say youre eating Jesus skin, but Ill defer to Jesus and Paul, who called it ... wait for it ... wait for it ... bread."
So what happened to these verses?
Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is my body." And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you; for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. I tell you I shall not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom." (Matthew 26:26-29 RSV)
I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that a man may eat of it and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven; if any one eats of this bread, he will live for ever; and the bread which I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh. ~Jesus Christ (John 6:48-51 RSV)
So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him. As the living Father sent me, and I live because of the Father, so he who eats me will live because of me. This is the bread which came down from heaven, not such as the fathers ate and died; he who eats this bread will live for ever." (John 6:53-58 RSV)

To: GADEL
Are you dismissing what Paul wrote in 1 Corinthians, then? If saying “bread” was good enough for the Apostle Paul, it’s good enough for me. Or do you disagree with what the Apostle Paul wrote? Did he mis-word his sentences accidentally? Was he imprecise?
How much Greek have you studied, by the way?

Gadel you are on my Facebook friends. But I just looked but your not there. So something went wrong. So I will re friend request you. I stay mainly on the religion forum here. Great profile . You have a way with words.
To: GADEL
Gadel — you say that this photo “was circulating within [your] country.” Can you be specific? Did you get it from a website? If so, which one? Did you scan it from a newspaper, or a magazine? Or do you have a copy of the original photo?
Do you know the name of the person who took the photo? Do you know the date and precise location where it is supposed to have happened?
I’ve found this same photo (and story) on this website:
http://stigmatablog.blogspot.com/2011/07/eucharistic-miracle-in-ghana.html
Is that where you got the story and photo from? If so, that’s not much of an “original source.”
From all accounts, there is no way to corroborate this story. And something this fantastic must be either verified with a preponderance of evidence, or discarded as urban legend. As someone who “is passionate about separating facts from fiction in this age of information chaos,” I’m surprised you aren’t more skeptical about this story.

To: GADEL
After some research, it’s clear that this is a merging of an “ecce homo” painting and something else. This is an example of a 19th century ecce homo painting:
http://cgi.ebay.com/Jesus-Christ-Crown-Thorns-Oil-Painting-19th-Century-/280681284260#ht_500wt_1102
Note the expression, the eyebrows, long hair, and so on. It’s really not difficult to recreate this image from things you’ll find off the web.
Can we move on now, and “separate facts from fiction”?
And let’s together exalt Jesus over our particular pet doctrines.

"Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in you. He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day."Christ did not misspeak: nor was He imprecise.
Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this said, This is a hard saying; who can hear it?
Some of the disciples demurred at Christs words. Some of them left. But Christ did not 'walk back' His words. He meant what He said, and went on to reinforce what He said:
Does this cause you to stumble? What then if you see the Son of Man ascending to where He was before? It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing; the words that I have spoken to you are spirit and are life.
Paul does not dispute this, of course. From Corinthians:
The chalice of benediction, which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ ? And the bread, which we break, is it not the partaking of the body of the Lord?
Doubt no longer, but believe.

Do You Believe in Eucharistic Miracles? The Eucharist is a miracle at every Mass and Orthodox Divine Liturgy-Jesus becomes fully prsent and the bread and wine becomes Christ
