You are a Priest and you don't know: 1 Corinthians 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

Your adherence to the Catholic Mass mythos apparently prevents you from knowing that the BODY JESUS now inhabits, IN HEAVEN, is incorruptible, not using blood to carry the LIFE. That is the state of the bodies Believers will have when He appears for us; John tells us when HE appears we shall see HIM as HE really is, in a glorified body and we will be able to see HIM because we will have been transformed in a moment in the twinkling of an eye to be like HIM.

The life of the creature is carried in the blood of the creature. JESUS is no longer in a corruptible creature body. HE is in an incorruptible, glorified body. GOD has another way of distributing THE LIFE through the glorified bodies ... HINT: The BIBLE tells us HIS glory will permeate everything in HEAVEN. There is no blood in Heaven except on the Mercy seat.

You see, the thing you are doing in Catholic Mass is a myth, a fairytale, for you assert you continue a sacrifice done ONCE, for ALL, forever. When Jesus resurrected from the tomb, HE is no longer in a creature body.

JESUS told Thomas to put his hand in the wound mark on HIS side for there was the wound, but no blood pouring from it. When the wound was made blood and water (serum) pour forth as JESUS had died ... He died for you and for me and GOD resurrected JESUS to show acceptance of HIS sacrifice ONCE for ALL Forever.

Paul explained the creature blood which carried the creature life of the man Jesus was sprinkled on the Mercy seat for us, for ANY who will believe and have faith, or faithe that Jesus is their Savior ... just like JESUS explained to Nicodemus that night, as recorded for us in John 3.

Shall I give you more?

You completely misstate what Catholics believe about the Mass. This comes from reading anti-Catholic propaganda. If you will read the Catechism of the Catholic Church, you will find that what you think the Church teaches does not resemble what the Church teaches.

The Mass does not offer Christ again and again and again. It does not repeat Christ's death on the Cross.

The Mass makes present, in a particular place, at a particular time, the sacrifice of Jesus that took place almost 2,000 years ago.

If you object to the Mass, then you should object to the reading of the Gospels. READING the Gospel accounts of the death of Jesus, REPEATS that sacrifice again and again and again.

Of course, that is not true. Reading the Gospels MAKES THE ACTIONS OF JESUS PRESENT to people who were not physically present when those actions took place.

“IN HEAVEN, is incorruptible, not using blood to carry the LIFE.

Actually, at least post resurrection before Christ went to heaven, the bible doesn’t say if Christ’s body had blood coursing thru him or not. He could obviously eat as he was seen doing so. As for our glorified bodies, only God knows the wonders of their construction...that we are given bodies and why, instead of being shapeless, non corporeal spiritual entities is another very interesting question! Jesus says we shall be as the angels, neither married nor given in marriage is at least a tantalizing clue!

It might be interesting to point out what Jesus said to Mary and Martha when he encountered them post resurrection....”Touch me not for I have not yet been glorified by my Father...” (Which implies that once he had been glorified, one could touch him as he must have been when Christ told Thomas to thrust his hand into his side to feel his wounds. Interestingly enough, the wounds remained despite his glorified state).
