Bloodless offering? Really?

The Eucharistic offering doesn't involve slaughter.

Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins

What's in the blood that "remits" sins?

If it's a bloodless offering, then why teach that the cup becomes the blood of Christ?

There is no shedding of the blood. Look it up.

And *offering*??

Yes, which part don't you understand? Christ offered bread and wine.

The priest is offering Christ?

The priest is simply repeating what Jesus asked to be repeated.

This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my laws on their hearts, and write them on their minds,"

Jeremiah was not writing about Christians. The fact that the author of the Book of Hebrews decided to Christianize Jeremiah is another thing.

Try as you might to understand it does escape you time and time again and will continue to do so....

“Spiritual things are spiritually discerned”...All the debates, reading and study will only “offer” you head knowlege....which has it’s place. But without His Spirit that’s as far as one can go....the eyes of man see at best dimly....those without Christ are blind to understand.
