Our Lord shed His blood on the Cross for the remission of sin. It was the final necessary sacrifice. The Eucharist, instituted by Him at the Last Supper allows each of us to participate in that sacrifice. It IS His Body and Blood.

"The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not a participation in the body of Christ? Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread" (I Cor 10:16-17)

With respect that is not the issue I addressed..I addressed the "unbloody sacrifice" of the mass...I compared it to Cains rejected sacrifice.

We speak of h Real Presence of Christ. In an sense, what happens is that we somehow are ourselves made present at Calvary. At mass we mystically stand at the foot of the cross. The question is, however, do we look up with shame, or indifference, or even with a certain resentment?
