No, it isn’t silly.
If Jesus were to walk in front of you right now, would you fall to your knees and adore him?
Well, Jesus is full present in the Holy Sacrament of the Altar. And I will fall to my knees whether you like it or not.
Woe to those who do not respect the Lord.
“Well, Jesus is full present in the Holy Sacrament of the Altar. “
Afraid not. He is present in you, not the mere Bread and Cup. When that wafer is made, it is not Jesus Christ until a properly ordained man declares it to be so. The wine does not become Jesus’ blood until a properly ordained man declares it to be so.
It’s all dependent on proper credentials as determined by the church. Don’t drag God into it. He is irrelevant.
AMEN Sister!!!!
