THIS IS MY BODY.
THE CUP OF BLESSING WHICH WE BLESS, IS IT NOT A PARTICIPATION IN THE BLOOD OF CHRIST? THE BREAD WE BREAK, IS IT NOT A PARTICIPATION IN THE BODY OF CHRIST?
“where does His blood come from”
i need to repeat a post to CB, Christians believe Jesus Christ is God. He is fully capable of providing His Blood to us in the cup of blessing.
At least this is what Christians believe and have for 2,000 years since we received this teaching from the Apostles.
Who is it written to? "THE CATHOLICS"?...No. It is written to the "HEBREWS" and speaks of the last days before Christ returns to set up His Kingdom, where they will be a Nation of Priests and a blessing to all nations.
Sorry, always a bridesmaid, never a bride for the Catholic Church. You've rejected the gospel of your salvation for this age, "But Now" of Ephesians Chapter 2, and you're not Israel in the "ages to come." No more than your were Israel in "Time Past" of Eph. Chapter 2.
eh, hate to break the news to you but Christians know that Jesus has already established His Kingdom.
Colossians 1:13-14
He has delivered us from the dominion of darkness and transferred us to THE KINGDOM OF HIS BELOVED SON, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
..So what you’re saying is because He is fully capable of providing His Blood, that He no longer possesses as it was ALL poured out at Calvary, it is actually NOT an unbloody Mass, but a very real bloody Mass..If He possesses no blood and yet turns wine into His blood, it would HAVE to be a bloody sacrifice, in order to get blood.
EXACTLY! There is NO blood in a spiritual body. Not rocket science but the Vatican/CC aren’t known for their smarts - they are known for their deception.
Colossians 2:11 In whom also ye are circumcised with the circumcision made without hands, in putting off the body of the sins of the flesh by the circumcision of Christ:
How about buried? Where you also literally buried?
Colossians 2:12 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead.
Where you also literally crucified with Christ?
Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Then why do Catholics not think that they ARE redeemed and why do they think that they don't have forgiveness?
Do you not know that Christ is going to return to this earth and set up His Kingdom? Are you not aware of the covenants He made with Israel? Are do you just want to be Israel so badly that you’re willing to overlook THEIR promises, covenants made to THEM, and their FUTURE in God’s Plan for man?
The wine is turned into blood but it’s no a bloody sacrifice? Wait,,,,,what? If the wine is turned to blood it’s blood. It then becomes a bloody sacrifice.
i am glad you and i agree THE CHURCH teaches Jesus died once, never to suffer or die again.
i guess i am stupid, but when your previous post said Jesus died ONCE ( boldened for emphasis ) i took that to mean you were implying the Church taught something different than that. that was my mistake, i am glad we agree Jesus died once.
BTW - THERE IS ONLY ONE CHURCH, JUST AS THERE IS ONLY ONE LORD, ONE FAITH AND ONE BAPTISM.
Mormons, Baptists, Jehovah Witnesses, Seventh Day Adventist can all put “church” after their name, but the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church was established by Jesus Christ Himself and it is THE CHURCH.
LOL, i said what i said and it bears no resemblance to what you just posted.
go into fiction writing, you have a gift!!
You would think, wouldn’t you? But then you couldn’t be a Catholic. Thinking is not allowed beyond what is given to think about. Thinking leads to “NO CRACKER FOR YOU”.
In order to get into fiction writing, I would have to become Catholic. They are the ones with the GIFT of writing fiction..
remember your story, you know the one where you used to be Catholic.
you have to watch asking questions like this that anyone who really was once Catholic , knows doesn’t match Catholic belief.
i think actors call it “staying in character”
do i need to explain again who the “Israel of God” is?
hint: it has nothing to do with DNA.
hint 2 : read Galatians 3:29.
>>>>>>That charge has been laid to non-Catholics many times on this very thread by Catholics in much clearer terms
Oh, like the paramecium thing? Yes that was a joke.
>>>>> than just hints. And other times on other threads in the form of exorcism prayers being directed towards them.
If I’m not mistaken, the hysterical complaints harassed the RM into forbidding exorcism prayers. Talk about thin skin. Not that exorcism prayers aren’t said privately. And candles lit. ;-D No way for you to control that, is there?
Revelation 20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Are we now in that thousand years and has Satan been chained and have no control on earth or is that still to come?
