Wow. Look how far down in that process one would have to go to get to Christ.

What folly! Do you feel Christ is no longer on this earth? "While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to his disciples, saying, "Take and eat; this is my body" --Matt 26:26.
"We should never again use the expression, 'When Jesus was on earth' or think of Him as being only in heaven, Jesus is still on earth." ... "While all the sacraments confer grace, the Eucharist contains the author of grace, Jesus Christ Himself" --Fr. John Hardon, S.J.

“Where 2 or 3 are gathered together in my name, there I am”.

Jesus said He was the Bread of Life. Does that mean He looked like a loaf of bread?

He said He was the gate. Does that mean He was made of wood?

He said, *I am the true vine*... Does that mean He was green and leafy?

If the Eucharist actually becomes the body and blood of Christ during the mass, then what’s the white wafer the priest holds up?

That doesn’t look like flesh and blood to me as you claim it becomes during the mass.

The point of the supper is to remember Christ.

Christ was resurrected and ascended into heaven and is now seated at the right hand of the Father.

Now, using scripture, please explain how, instead of being risen and ascended, he is still on Earth. Also explain how the Bible spends a whole book on what is going to happen when He is again on Earth.

Of course, if you mean the Holy Spirit, I completely understand.

Sorry to say but all that can be said is your John Hardon lied to all of you...

Joh 16:28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.

Joh 16:7
Joh 16:8 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
Joh 16:9 Of sin, because they believe not on me;
Joh 16:10 Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more;

And there it is in the Blessed red ink...

Johnny Hardon is perverting scripture and you guys eat it up...Apparently you'll believe anything and everything EXCEPT God...

There's not a piece of God breathed scripture any where that suggests Jesus will be brought back to earth by your clerics to be turned into a wafer and be eaten...
