After forty plus years being raised up in the Way I should go, stumbling and coming home again, stumbling and having His guiding hand slap me where I'll feel it then stand me up again, I am certain that teaching people to drink the literal blood of Jesus at Eucharist is a sacrilege, a sacrilege which denigrates what the Real Blood of Jesus was used to accomplish for you and for me. God wanted us to understand it so much that He gave foreshadowings of Messiah in the Feasts times of Israel. God has used Israel for our chalkboard lessons.
God has also left us clear messages regarding what He plans for this planet and humanity. Groups and folks get empowered by misleading others over what God teaches through His Word. His Spirit inspired the Word, His Spirit empowered the Word made flesh Who dwelt among us, and His spirit brings Born from Above LIFE to the dead human spirit when we faithe (yes, the verb form) in Him. When we believe God's Promises, we walk in faith, as Abraham did and it was counted for him righteousness.
Look around you in America. We are murdering millions of our alive unborn, for utilitarian purposes, allowed because Christians are not literally warring against such demonic things. Our nation deserves what the Amalekites got. But as with Sodom, as with Ninevah, as with Enoch and Noah, as with he Israelites 2000 years ago, God gives call after call but will not always strive with the rebellious.
God is Spirit and we worship Him in spirit and truth. Carnal focus is the antithesis of worshiping in spirit.
The Remembrance of His sacrifice for us is designed to aim the mind (part of the soul) toward the spiritual, much the way the incense altar is placed before the Holy of Holies, to prepare the Way to the Presence of God.
In this Church Age, God is in us by His Holy Spirit earnest of our inheritance, to raise us up in the Way that we should go, so that we can keep the Two Great commandments of Jesus now that the laws of sin and death are covered by His Blood upon the Mercy Seat.
God will not overwhelm our human soul, but He will never give up on the parenting while we are alive. Soon, He is going to snatch us away from the wickedness growing exponentially around us. It taints our places of work, our schools, our ballot boxes, our recreational areas, and our homes. We are literally in a well of evil intentions rushing around the planet as electromagnetic signals.
All around us are electromagnetic waves which carry information. A large amount of lies and filth are carried on those waves. All that is needed is a means to resonate those waves, to overwhelm our minds and emotion with the filth satan wants to mire us in in defiance of God. God told us The Life is in The Blood. Our life is in our blood, and the blood is an excellent means to spread a 'strange life' transmitted via electromagnetic waves to receivers implanted in the living body. The antichrist is planning a way to do just that, and people will accept the 'resonator' because if they don't they will not be able to buy or sell and cannot receive 'public servcies'. Any who accept satan's mark, his resonator, will be damned, for his life will be in their blood.
God is not going to leave His Church in a world like that, a world which He has assured us he intends to pour His wrath upon.
God has placed in each Believer His own resonating earnest of our inheritance, The Holy Spirit presence. When Christ comes in the air for His Bride, the signal God sends through the Angel's command will resonate that presence and transform us in the twinkling of an eye into body and soul and spirit fit for immortal living. You don't get His Life in you by drinking His blood, literally. You are imbued with His Spirit by believing in Whom He has sent for your deliverance.
Very good post MHG
