So sad for you and yours Taken... Keeping her in my prayers.. Merry Christmas!

What a horrible accusation to make against the brethren... Merry Christmas!

'Capture every thought for Christ' What matters more? the day of the Celebration, or the focus of the Celebration? A pagan idol or the birth of the Light of the World? Merry Christmas!

Hello Miz, so it is and so it has always been: The LORD God gave man this order: "You are free to eat from any of the trees of the garden except the tree of knowledge of good and bad. From that tree you shall not eat; the moment you eat from it you are surely doomed to die." Do we...

Hello Moriah, this is the point of contention. It is not a 'different body'. It is HIS human body, glorified,transformed made incorruptible, yet still the same body that was placed in the tomb, still that which was born of Mary, suffered, crucified ... still human! To deny the resurrection of...

Hello Moriah, Scripture is clear that Jesus rose bodily from the tomb.. Is it transformed, glorified? Sure, but it is still the same body that was born of Mary, suffered, was crucified and died... it is not a different body.. Thomas, called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with them when...

Same body, transformed, glorified... But same body, the one born of Mary, that was crucified, died and was buried, and that rose again... Look at my hands and my feet, that it is I myself. Touch me and see, because a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you can see I have. Pax et Bonum!

Hello Cassandra, Jesus is still a man. He has the same body that rose from the dead, and ascended into heaven.. why would you think otherwise? St. Ignatius was made bishop of the Church in Antioch by apostles, and learned these things from the apostle John. he wrote this around 100 AD...

Hello Cassandra, pieces of Himself? No, not pieces but His whole self... there is a reason the miracle of the multiplaction of the fishes and loaves is placed right before the Bread of Life discourse in John 6. If Jesus can multiply fish and bread to feed our bellies.. He can certainly...

Merry Christmas GG, It's from Justin Martyr circa AD 150. His 1st apology.. Saint Justin Martyr: First Apology (Roberts-Donaldson) IMO, recognizably the Divine Liturgy that has been handed down to us today. My point being that the celebration of Eucharist has been central to living the Faith...

Hi GG, I wont quible over 20 years but certainly within the era of other apostolic writings.. I believe I linked my source in the original post.. ;) Does this look familiar to you? (I'll link if you dont recognize it ;) ) "And on the day called Sunday, all who live in cities or in the...

My dear farouk, the work of Christ on the Cross is indeed finished. What then do we have on our alter but the Lamb of God, who ONCE was slain, and now lives forever! (Rev 12:6). The Lamb who our Almighty Father in His goodness gives us, and to who's ONE sacrifice we unite our praise and...

Hello GG, really? you agree with this? What is the Mass if not the 'breaking of the bread' that the apostles devoted themselves too? Is it not, as the Church has recognized from the beginning the fulfillment of Malachi 1:11? For from the rising of the sun, even to its setting, my name is...

And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which will be shed for you. The King of Glory comes, let His bride make herself ready! Gloria in excelsis Deo!

Hello Friends of Jesus, As no one can believe what the Catholic teaches, without having faith in Jesus, your assertions are contradictory. 616 It is love "to the end"that confers on Christ's sacrifice its value as redemption and reparation, as atonement and satisfaction. He knew and loved us...

Hello Gary, Indeed, sounds wonderful! Alleluia! Pax et Bonum!

Hello Backlit, What part of "God's saving plan was accomplished "once for all" by the redemptive death of his Son Jesus Christ." do you not understand? Perhaps this will clear it up for you: 613 Christ's death is both the Paschal sacrifice that accomplishes the definitive redemption of men...

Hello Desire, Really? then who had it? those with Constantinople? Those with Alexandria? who else can claim to be the community established by Christ, through the apostles... Children, it is the last hour; and just as you heard that the antichrist was coming, so now many antichrists have...

571 The Paschal mystery of Christ's cross and Resurrection stands at the centre of the Good News that the apostles, and the Church following them, are to proclaim to the world. God's saving plan was accomplished "once for all" by the redemptive death of his Son Jesus Christ. Catechism of the...

Hello 1stCenturyLady, Right! And He offered Himself as the Paschal Lamb earlier at the beginning of the 14th ,'when the hour come', in front of the whole house of Israel (the 12 apostles) just as Moses commanded.. and then He gave Himself to them to eat.. 'this is My body'. Pax et Bonum!
