At the moment of your death, you will not be able to justify your previous actions against Christ.
In fact, while we are alive, Christ is perfect mercy. At the moment of our death, Christ become perfect justice.
Why don’t you believe the words of Jesus himself?
“This is my Body.
“This is my Blood; do this in remembrance of me.”

He spoke symbolically just as the prophets of the OT used symbolic language in speaking of epochal events. The people viewed Jesus as a prophet precisely because of the language He used, and His repeated use of parable and metaphor cannot overlooked, nor can such words be taken literally!
Or do you honestly believe that Jesus encouraged the practice of cannibalism? If so, it certainly ranks right up there with Voodoo as one of the many “gifts” Roman Catholic superstition has given us!
I’m not interested in Roman Catholic tradition or superstition. When the RCC is ready to divest itself of such heresies, I may be interested in returning to it.
