“what they say and what Christ says are often in dispute”
St Ignatius believed Christ when He said “This is My Body”
Of course, he had an advantage on you, he was personally taught the Catholic faith by St John, who penned the 6th Chapter of the Gospel of John. He could personally ask, “John, what are we receiving when we eat the Eucharist”? I would think the Word of God would be sufficient for you, “sola scriptura” remember?
But seeing as it is not, you would think the unanimous teaching of the Church for 1,500 years might sway you, not just St Ignatius or St Justin, but everywhere the Apostles spread the Gospel in the known world, there you would find the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
So, St Ignatius is in heaven saying how much longer until they are avenged and you sit in your comfortable house calling him a blasphemer.......says a lot!!
No..he ad no further advantage than I or any other Christian does. The truths of God can be and are revealed to any who desire...just read the scriptures. And BTW I am not giving you a platform to spill your catholic termonolgy here. So don't be so deceptive with your choice of words "Catholic Faith" that was easy to see thru..... We are not ignorant of the devises used. As said...time to end this discussion...thank you.
