mm, the priest does not “sacrifice” Christ. In any event, do a Google search on “The Eighth Day”. The Liturgy does not occur here nor in time neither has the Mystical Supper nor the crucifixion nor the Resurrection happened more than once and always on the Eighth Day.
Then what, exactly, does the priest DO at the altar?
Is not the mass the participation in the sacrifice of Christ as other Catholics here have stated?
Or is the elaborate ceremony, which bears little resemblance to the Last Supper, just done in REMEMBRANCE after all?
