Please make your case using the bible.
I do not believe you can and will make an excuse not to.
My prayer is that those of no faith looking in will have eyes to see the deceit used by the RCC and will see truth is found outside it and in Jesus Christ alone.
And why is it okay for Catholics to post articles favorable to Catholicism but when we refute it we are accused of posting attack articles?
You do realize that we are not going away and we will not stop refuting that which is unbiblical? So no amount of nastiness and calling what we post “attacks” will make your case...nothing from a man-made catechism will make your case.
Unless one can prove it from the bible, then one is left looking foolish. Any true believer of Christ can make their case solely from the bible.
How are you an expert? Why should anyone pay attention to your attacks?
52 Then the Jews began to argue sharply among themselves, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
53 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Your ancestors ate manna and died, but whoever feeds on this bread will live forever.” 59 He said this while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.
Many Disciples Desert Jesus
60 On hearing it, many of his disciples said, “This is a hard teaching. Who can accept it?”
61 Aware that his disciples were grumbling about this, Jesus said to them, “Does this offend you? 62 Then what if you see the Son of Man ascend to where he was before! 63 The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit[e] and life. 64 Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him. 65 He went on to say, “This is why I told you that no one can come to me unless the Father has enabled them.”
66 From this time many of his disciples turned back and no longer followed him.
67 “You do not want to leave too, do you?” Jesus asked the Twelve.
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.”
70 Then Jesus replied, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!” 71 (He meant Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, who, though one of the Twelve, was later to betray him.)

this from John 6 is for all demanding Bible reference.
1.in Scripture,a parable is always identified as a parable.
It is plainly stated as a quote”this is a hard TEACHING”.
2.Christ declares what is necessary and HE does not say a wafer whatever simply represents His Body and Blood.
HE states exactly what it is.
3.if this were a simple parable,why did he NOT call the ones leaving and “mumuring” BACK to get an explanation that this is only a parable ?
He even questions the remaining ones asking them if they’re going to leave HIM now the same.
please pay attention as this IS another mystery of our faith.
It IS His Body and Blood.
Please make your case that we need to make our case using the Bible.
They've soon forgotten how well it worked for MORMONs!
it is really amazing that a person belonging to a man made denomination would point out the fallicy of a man made catechism.
to say that the Catholic church does anything unbiblical is to show ignorance of the history of the bible itself. Where do you think it came from, who do you think brought it through the first 1,600 years of Christianity, who do you think copied it, by hand, so that it could be preserved for all of mankind, why would the Catholic Church have done that and then taught something unbiblical??????????
basically no one had a copy of the bible until the printing press was invented, few if any people could have affordrd to own a copy of it and just as few could have read it.
the bible, as we know it is a book containing holy scripture but the handfull of people who could have taken advantage of it, as a book, before modern times, were the learned, scholars, librarians, monastaries etc..
but then along came the revolutionaries....knowing nothing of what they spoke (except their leaders), and drew millions of people away from the true church.
the people were totally uneducated, they couldn't read because there was nothing to read nor learn from. The protestant leaders gave these uneducated peopple a much easier was to salvation than did the 1,600 year old Christian church. Don't worry about your bad behavior, Christ already died for your sins and you won't be held accountable...want to get a divorce and remarry, sure, go ahead, no problem here. Is it hard for you to believe in transubstantiation, no problem, just eat this bread and drink this wine and we'll consider it a comemerative celebration, don't want to confess to a priest, no problem, Christ died for your sins so live it up and all is well.....pathetic
