But the "Catholic facts" often diverge from just the facts Ma'am. There's the rub.

Sorry Charlie...Catholic facts are THE facts....you can't change them...Christ promised that...facts are facts....reforming them is IMPOSSIBLE

So much proud bluster; claiming your facts are in agreement with the Lord and his apostles. Maybe you can tell me what other RCs can’t:

If the ‘eucharist’ is eaten for eternal life, why the repetition?
Does it wear off?
If so, why does it wear off?
If it wears off, does one know when it has worn off?
One time doesn’t have the power to get the job done?

Why is there no detailed written ‘eucharist’ instruction from Peter in his recorded instances of converting souls in Acts, or in his epistles? If it is for eternal life, it should be right smack in the middle of Acts 2:38.

I think it’s because that Peter knew that it was spiritual, not physical. You have to ‘eat’ that Spirit (Holy Ghost baptism) that was in every cell of Jesus Christ’s body.

Paul says that the Lord’s supper is done in remembrance of the Lord’s death. In the same passage where the Lord’s supper is taught, Jesus said that it is the Spirit that quickeneth, the flesh profiteth nothing. Paul taught that we are to be filled with the Spirit, so that we don’t fulfill the lusts of the flesh.

The same Lord that taught the ‘Lord’s supper’, also said: “Strait is the gate and narrow is the way that leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.”
