Why do you reject Jesus words that what He was speaking was spiritual and not physical? Do you also believe John ate the physical scroll?
Your question: “Why do you reject Jesus words that what He was speaking was spiritual and not physical?”
Jesus was very explicit in his words and I believe in His specific instructions. Why do you need to contort the words and imply meaning that is not there?
You either have faith or you don’t have faith. Catholics have the actions and the teachings of the Apostles and their successors and sacred tradition.
There is also scientific evidence that has been reported that you seem to reject. One can either seek the Truth or develop their own meaning of the words of Jesus.
Your question: “Do you also believe John ate the physical scroll?”
Why do you just try to change the subject? The gift of the miracle that Jesus gave us His Body and His Blood that we celebrate at Mass with the Eucharist among 2 billion Catholics who accept this belief is much more significant than a scroll.
