He also said “in remembrance”. He didn’t say crucify me every Sunday for all of time. Nor did He say leave me on the cross as a visual reminder.
Just as every at Passover Seder the Jews are made present at the first Passover, Catholics are made present at the ONE sacrifice in the Epiclesis of the Mass. Nothing is recreated. Jesus said; "This IS my body". He dis not say this was my body or will be my body or is symbolic of my body.
Peace be with you
He said: "take and eat; this is my body crucified for you; do this in memorial of me". That is what we do, not every Sunday but every day. I don't know how it works out that we stand at the Golgotha hill each time we "do it", but I have faith in the words of my Lord and Savior and do what He asks.
Nor did He say leave me on the cross as a visual reminder.
Nor did He say: erect crosses but pretend I was not on them. As to crucifixes, didn't we just discuss that? Galatians 3:1 shows that the recipients of the letter looked at a crucifix routinely.
