>> Christ says “This is My Body.” <<

.

Had you quoted the entire statement, it would have made it plain that it is not his body, but a remembrance of what was done to his body for us. He would not have us break a commandment.

(obviously, it was being broken by his body that moment)

"Had you quoted the entire statement...

Had you quoted ALL that Jesus and the witnesses said on the subject it would be clear that the Epiousios is indeed the Real Presence. Any discussion of the Eucharist that does not present all other versus in the context of John 6 is at best woefully incomplete.

Peace be with you

Hello, E-S. can you explain to me what you mean by “remembrance”?
