The Mass originated with Jesus Christ at the Last Supper.

Is there some reason you do not believe the Bible’s story of the Last Supper?

Again, here are many, by the grace of God.

Since you are so vested in believing the Catholic interpretation of the Last Supper, let's look at the actually descriptions given my eyewitnesses and the ones who faithfully wrote down the eyewitness reports.

Luke 22:14And when the hour came, he reclined at table, and the apostles with him. 15And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16For I tell you I will not eat itb until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” 17 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he said, “Take this, and divide it among yourselves. 18 For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” 19 And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 20 And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood. Here you need a bit of knowledge of the Passover meal, where the covenant blood of the sacrifice is poured out when the lamb is sacrificed. The blood was NEVER eaten / drunk.

See also Matthew 26"26-30, Mark 14:22-26, 1 Cor 11:17-34. Jesus calls the change, the upgrade, to the Passover A Remembrance for what He was about to accomplish, going to the Cross as OUR Passover Lamb. Note once again that the blood from the slain Passover lamb collected in a cup was NEVER drunk for that would violate the Command from God to NEVER through ALL their generations ( which would include the generations of the Apostles and disciples) eat the blood. The blood was poured out, as Jesus poured out the wine used to symbolize His Blood poured out for them and us.

It was a Jewish dinner called the Passover Seder celebrating their release from Egypt. at the end of it Jesus broke bread and shared a cup of wine. This is fact and in the NT and to your question the Bible is and will always will be my Sacred guide to my relationship with God through the Holy Spirit, not a Religion established afterwards, Use a study Bible that has both the Hebrew and Greek dictionary built in so I can get to the true meaning of the passages by researching the original language used in their creation and that provides tremendous insight.

It was NOT a Catholic ritual nor a mass

The RCC may have taken this event and wrapped a “Mass” around it but in the original actual event it was post Seder (Passover Dinner)

So unless you have something besides trying to convince me that the Catholic Church is the only real church ever further discourse bears no fruit.
