I just don’t think you can explain stuff away, with technical interpretations of what the Bible says, when you can just do what Jesus said.

I don’t think he needed a lawyer or press secretary to explain what he meant.

“Do this in memory of Me” - is very simple.

I don’t see any exceptions in that statemen. And I don’t think you can find any by searching for them through interpretations of other passages of the Bible.

So, “Do this in memory” of Jesus in your own home with wonder bread, if you like- or would that be somehow prohibited? And by who?

And getting mad and hurling invective at me is not very Christian.

Who says it's "very simple"? You? How do you know?

Does it matter whom He was speaking to? Was the command given to everyone or just to the people he was with? How do you know?

What does "do this in memory of me" mean in the context of a Passover ritual observance? Is "do this in memory of me" even an accurate translation of the Greek (answer: not very)?
