Catholicism does teach eating God.
Let’s follow Catholic logic through.
You see, since Jesus is God, right? And Mary gave birth to Jesus and is rightly called the mother of Christ, then by Catholic reasoning, she is to be called the mother of God because Jesus the Christ is God.
Now, Catholics are the ones who claim that Jesus teaches in John 6 that we have to literally eat (chew is what they claim the word translates to) His literal, physical flesh and literal, physical blood, then since Jesus is God, then Catholics believe that they are commanded to eat God.
That’s how they believe that they receive eternal life, by consuming the eucharist, aka, eating God.
60Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? |
67Then said Jesus unto the twelve, Will ye also go away? |
68Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life. |
explained from the Bible through the catechism
The command of Jesus to repeat his actions and words "until he comes" does not only ask us to remember Jesus and what he did. It is directed at the liturgical celebration, by the apostles and their successors, of the memorial of Christ, of his life, of his death, of his Resurrection, and of his intercession in the presence of the Father.from the Bible explanations from the catechism
1 Cor 11:26
26For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come. From the beginning the Church has been faithful to the Lord's command. Of the Church of Jerusalem it is written:
They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers. . . . Day by day, attending the temple together and breaking bread in their homes, they partook of food with glad and generous hearts.
Acts 2:42,46
42And they continued stedfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, and in breaking of bread, and in prayers. 46And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart
It was above all on "the first day of the week," Sunday, the day of Jesus' resurrection, that the Christians met "to break bread."
Acts 20:7From that time on down to our own day the celebration of the Eucharist has been continued so that today we encounter it everywhere in the Church with the same fundamental structure. It remains the center of the Church's life.
7And upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together to break bread, Paul preached unto them, ready to depart on the morrow; and continued his speech until midnight. 1344 Thus from celebration to celebration, as they proclaim the Paschal mystery of Jesus "until he comes," the pilgrim People of God advances, "following the narrow way of the cross,"
1 Cor 11:26toward the heavenly banquet, when all the elect will be seated at the table of the kingdom.
26For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord's death till he come.
