‘Remember, just as for you to doubt scripture, it was also hard for the Roman pagans to believe Jesus Christ’s words directly or through Paul, hence Justin Martyr who wrote in his First Apology (A.D. 151) to the pagan Emperor “The food which has been made into the Eucharist by the Eucharistic prayer set down by him, and by the change of which our blood and flesh is nurtured, is both the flesh and the blood of that incarnated Jesus.”’
First of all, I’ll thank you for not trying to read my mind; I do not doubt scripture; can you not resist making this personal? After so many warnings? Sheesh.
I DO however not only doubt, but in many cases deny the Roman Catholic interpretation (’mangling’) of scripture.
The Book of Martyr is canonized where?

So if you wish to keep denying scripture and denying Christ's own words inaugurating the Eucharist, go ahead... your own choice

Actually, that comment was directed to boatbums, although the copy to you implies you as well.
It sure looks like mind reading to me.....

Jesus said “This is MY Body” If you don’t accept the words of Jesus ( and they are in your canon, correct? ),why would you believe the words of St Justin, even if they were in the canon?!?!
