Great post.
People who, in effect, call Christ a liar by denying that Christ is really present in the Eucharist bread and wine are blind, and being blind, latch onto whatever they think best rationalizes their inability to see. Christ Himself said He is really present in the Eucharist, therefore the remembrance of Christ shares in the sacrifice of Christ on the cross exactly the same way people shared the sacrificial meal of any other sacrifice prior to the Crucifixion.
I honestly don't understand how people who claim to be Christian cannot grasp that having us share in the in the sacrifice that took place on the cross is a trivial thing for Christ to accomplish. It has to be one of the blind spots Satan works very hard to foster and works very hard to keep folks getting over.
It's like people bending over backwards to ignore the fact that God has been dealing with His people in the same, consistent, way throughout the Bible. It's so obvious, in fact, that people can't miss it unless they've accepted a powerful delusion. God always raises up a leader for His people, and that leader always establishes a priesthood to keep His sheep from straying. Christ as our leader did the same thing, established a priesthood to guide and protect His sheep so they don't stray from the body of Christ, His Church. Yet, the majority of folks prefer Core to Christ, and in doing so deny Christ by denying His Word. They so much prefer Core, in fact, that they'll deny clear, simple, Scripture that states, ". . . and on this Rock I will build my Church", or "This is my body".
Obviously, it's very easy for folks in this country to get trapped into Self Worship and find whatever they want to find in Scripture without ever seeing what's really there. When the majority of people are deluded into believing Christ would be the father of anarchy, it's no wonder the majority of people commit the same sin Eve did. Who but Self Worshipers who see themself as god can teach that contraception is a sin in 1965 and teach that it's no big deal twenty years later, then claim that they've always based their belief on what the Holy Spirit shows them is in Scripture?
I am so thankful for the Grace that led me to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church after so long in the wildness of Protestantism.
