Non-Catholic Christians accept Jesus is the Passover Lamb in the New Covenant but reject or do not recall what followed? They CONSUMED the sacrificed Passover Lamb.

Additionally, the Passover lamb was a symbolic representation of Christ, not Christ Himself. It was eaten in expectation of the sacrifice of Christ not in remembrance because it happened before Christ's death, not after.

Eating the4 passover lamb did NOT save anyone.

Both are ceremonies to illustrate what the Messiah did/was going to do, nothing more and nothing less.

The passover lamb also served as a ransom for the first born male of the Israelite household, Thus every born belonged to God.

“Additionally, the Passover lamb was a symbolic representation of Christ, not Christ Himself. It was eaten in expectation of the sacrifice of Christ NOT IN REMEMBRANCE because it happened before Christ’s death, not after.”

A change, stating above the Protestant definition is not a “remembrance?” Okay, it was an excuse because of the
revolt and never made any sense.

How is eating a cracker and drinking grape juice, a “remembrance” of Christ’s suffering death on the Cross?

The Old Covenant is made greater in the New. You all reject
God Himself is the Passover Lamb in the New Covenant. Most Protestants accept this fact. Protestants are inconsistent in belief. No unity.

God’s plan that the faithful receive God, Our Lord in the most Holy Eucharist, you protest and reject this Truth so you deny His IS the New Covenant Passover Lamb.
