> “Cracker? You call the body of Christ a cracker?”

. No, YOU call the body of Christ a cracker.

We have the records here on FR which remain unedited. You call the Body of Christ a cracker.

I know from God’s word that the communion bread and cup are a simple REMEMBRANCE as the Lord himself stated. It is the Catholics that have a seance instead of communion.

Which pagan god are you referring to? I worship Christ.

John 6:48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died; 50 this is the bread that comes down from heaven so that one may eat it and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world." 52 The Jews quarreled among themselves, saying, "How can this man give us (his) flesh to eat?" 53 Jesus said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have life within you. 54 Whoever eats 19 my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him on the last day. 55 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me and I in him. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I have life because of the Father, so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me. 58 This is the bread that came down from heaven. Unlike your ancestors who ate and still died, whoever eats this bread will live forever." 59 These things he said while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.

60 20 Then many of his disciples who were listening said, "This saying is hard; who can accept it?" 61 Since Jesus knew that his disciples were murmuring about this, he said to them, "Does this shock you? 62 What if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before? 21 63 It is the spirit that gives life, while the flesh 22 is of no avail. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and life. 64 But there are some of you who do not believe." Jesus knew from the beginning the ones who would not believe and the one who would betray him. 65 And he said, "For this reason I have told you that no one can come to me unless it is granted him by my Father." 66 As a result of this, many (of) his disciples returned to their former way of life and no longer accompanied him.

Whoever refuses to eat and drink of the Lord - true food and true drink - and finds it hard to accept do not walk the Via of Christ - they walk their own path.

There are many who mock Christ and who mock Christians. This is what Christ has to say - truly and not something learned from pagan gods -

Matthew 5: 8 Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. 10 Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, 9 for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you (falsely) because of me. 12 10 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

Acts 7: 54 When they heard this, they were infuriated, and they ground their teeth at him. 55 But he, filled with the holy Spirit, looked up intently to heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing at the right hand of God, 3 56 and he said, "Behold, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God." 57 But they cried out in a loud voice, covered their ears, 4 and rushed upon him together. 58 They threw him out of the city, and began to stone him. The witnesses laid down their cloaks at the feet of a young man named Saul. 59 As they were stoning Stephen, he called out, "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit." 5 60 Then he fell to his knees and cried out in a loud voice, "Lord, do not hold this sin against them"; and when he said this, he fell asleep.

I pray for all men, that God may recover all the sheep of the world, all the men that He has created and that no man continues to resist the Grace of God and departs from the Faith handed down to us from the Apostles.

What was he saying just before they left?

Why bother? The SFS/OSAS will tell you this is taken out of context even though the verses are there in their entirety. The sentences, the very words of Jesus Christ our Saviour should not even be on the same page....

Do they not even know what they say? I imagine they do, they just don’t care.

.
And the records of FR show clearly that I called your pagan seance cookie a cookie.

That pagan cookie has nothing whatsoever to do with the Lord Jesus Christ nor his body, standard Catholic lack of reading comprehension not withstanding.
