You really don’t understand Greek language, translation, figures of speech, context, hermeneutics, etc., do you??

OK. Use your brilliance to tell me why, the word IS means two different things in these two Scripture verses.

" and behold, a voice from heaven said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.” Mat 3:17 So here you believe ‘is’ means ‘is’

But here, “Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.” Mat 26:26, you believe ‘Is” means ‘Represents”

Please tell me why. It is the same word in Greek

You have to redefine ‘is’ to support your man-made belief.

As I said, you do not seem to understand how Greek is used, translated, context, figures of speech, etc.

Being unlearned is where we all start. Not growing once we see a deficiency is sad.

Oh, this is sad, FRiend.

No Apostle believed or taught your view. It came much later in Roman history, as paganism crept into your church. Now you read it back into a passage and base your argument on "is."
