The mass has a beginning and an end.

How can it be a sacrifice is nobody or nothing is killed?

What’s the point of the church’s altar then? What’s the point of offering it up?

What’s the point of the catholic church SAYING that He dies again, as it does and you’ve been shown.

The definition of sacrifice itself demands the logical conclusion of killing.

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/sacrifice

1: an act of offering to a deity something precious; especially : the killing of a victim on an altar

2: something offered in sacrifice

3a : destruction or surrender of something for the sake of something else

Jesus is presently seated at the right hand of God the Father.

Hebrews 10:12-14 12But when Christ had offered for all time a single sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, 13waiting from that time until his enemies should be made a footstool for his feet. 14For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified.

Demanding that He is still being offered in heaven or anywhere as an eternal sacrifice when Scripture says otherwise, that it was a one time event and done and He is seated at the Father’s right hand, is denying the truth found in Scripture.

The Roman Catholic church is wrong in this. They are being condemned by their own words as lying.

Sacrifice does not necessarily meaning killing. Check: Besides, the sacrifice of the mass is the participation in the ONE sacrifice that was Christ's sacrifice.

Here's an interesting article especially for you from www.lcms.org
The amazing truth about Jesus is that He is both human and divine, both true man and true God.
-- you see, Jesus Christ is BOTH True man and True God. Jesus Christ is our Lord and our God. There's a lot more there to help you to know Jesus Christ as God.

Note also Hebrews 10:16 And this is the testament which I will make unto them after those days, saith the Lord. I will give my laws in their hearts, and on their minds will I write them Jesus says that He placed His law in man’s hearts, though this is attributed to God in Jeremiah 31:33 “This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel
after that time,” declares the LORD.
“I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people.


Hence Jesus Christ is God.
