"Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught?"

Really now, CynicalBear, do you actually think that Jesus Christ did not know that what He was referring to there was the waste matter, AFTER the benefits of vitamins, and minerals, and proteins, and other bodily health and cell building and sustaining elements were removed from the food, and retained and built into the healthy growing human body?

(Keep in mind, God created our bodies, and knows exactly what our bodies need in the way of healthful nutrients.)

Jesus also knows exactly what we need for optimal spiritual health, including, as He clearly said, His Holy Presence in His Holy Eucharist,and when He speaks about those things, we all should put our sarcasm and skepticism aside, and simply listen to Him and believe Him.)

Now there was a whole post of man’s wisdom!

John 3:5-6 Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Tell me. Where would you be if transubstantiation did NOT occur?

Could you or would you still be saved, going to heaven?
