A repeat sinner, I try to spend an hour on my knees weekly adoring this lifeless piece of bread.
It’s a relationship. Conversation with Jesus, like you would have in your church or car, but with Him right front and center. Mano y mano, right at eye level, like He stooped to become a man.
“The Holy Eucharist is Love to the extreme of folly.” You make light of the bread, as the Romans made light of Christ and His human body, slapping it around, spitting on Him, humiliating Him, nailing it and thrusting it up high for public ridicule. Under that veil of human flesh was God’s son. Under the veil of white rounded smooth bread, is God’s Son. Staying here to be among His people that need Him.
“I wait for you.”
If I beat you over the head with the Eucharist, I am not doing Jesus’ wish, and I apologize.
That is so sad..
Catholics kneel before an idol, made with human hands..in full violation of the 1st and 2nd commandments and they think this is pleasing to Him. They talk to that idol as if it has ears to hear.. .
My FR friend.. it does not matter to God if one BELIEVES that bread is god.. The pagans believed their idols were gods too..
The body of Christ now sits at right hand of the Father to rule and reign ... He is not in a man made box needed to keep Him safe.. He is not locked into a piece of a cracker to be chewed , swallowed and then eliminated ....
Worshiping a lifeless piece of bread, is NOT a relationship.
Acts 17:24-25 The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.
Acts 17:29 Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man.
