if protestants interpret this as forbidding Christ from performing another sacrifice or reenacting the one he did then you've all decided to put Calvin over God in terms of authority...

This has nothing to do with Calvin. This is Christianity 101.

Where does Scripture say Christ "performs another sacrifice" than the one He performed on the cross?

Where does Scripture say Christ will be "reenacting the one sacrifice he did?"

Hebrews 10 is very clear. One sacrifice, to perfectly accomplish God's will that the sins of Christ's sheep be forgiven by His atonement.

"But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;

From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.

For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified." -- Hebrews 10:12-14

Nothing about Calvin. Nothing about "other sacrifices." Nothing about "reenactments."

"One sacrifice for sins forever...for by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sactified."

As they screamed to John Candy and Steve Martin in "Planes, Trains and Automobiles" --

"YOU'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!"

Where does scripture say that 15th century french lawyers may freely limit the power of God? Christ promised the Holy Spirit would bring to the lips of the Church the things which even his apostles had forgotten. Protestants refuse Christ commandment to 'do this in memory of me' and suggest that they can place limitations on the Holy Spirit and Christ! Truly the bastard children of the Latins...
