Sooooo I may be misunderstanding you. It appears to me that you are saying that when we “walk” the walk and talk the talk (witness) then we are eating Jesus body? If we act like Christians and witness to others we are eating Jesus body? That is what I understand you to be saying....

Ok....so you do not believe what Jesus said when he said “This is my body...”. And, you do not believe Paul when he asked rhetorically, Is not the cup/bread we drink/eat a participation in the blood/body of Christ? Do you believe you must eat His body? If so, how do you accomplish that? If...

Having a translation of the Bible interpreted into every language has never been held back by The Church. Preventing heretical translations has been the goal of The Church. Historical Mary PS....I don’t think @BreadOfLife has ever suggested it was “ok” to kill someone because they printed a...

I don’t understand why you are telling God that he should make the “same promise” for both breads. That confuses me. Clearly the promise was NOT for both breads...just like Scripture says. The “last supper bread” is not normal bread. That is what the Catholic Church believes and some, NOT...

Thank you. How is communion not a “flesh based significance” when He said “This IS my body...”? Does the body not have flesh? It seems he WAS making it a “fleshed based significance”. How do you equate drinking a toast (using milk or beer at a bar or soda or whisky etc.) in remembrance of...

I believe I did answer your question. In Post #102 I said: I never suggested or made the “point” that “at the last supper” Jesus told “them whoever ate of that bread will never die.” Sooooo in summary you are asking me to defend something I never said OR thought soooo I am a bit confused...

Hi EG, I agree with you. That is...in general....how the conversation went between Jesus and the Jews. If my past post appear to disagree with you on that matter I hope i am making it clear that I don’t disagree with you. Now to answer your question: I believe Jesus meant what he said...

Ummmm.....I don’t think participating in the Eucharist counts for nothing. I am doing what He told me to do sooooo it must count for something. Right? Do you think it counts for nothing to do what He told you to do? Mary

You responded to my post but never answered my question: I believe that we must do what Jesus told us to do. Do you?

Lol.....I guess I didn’t reply fast enough?? ;) Read post #102 for your answer....Mary

Hi, I never suggested or made the “point” that “at the last supper” Jesus told “them whoever at of that bread will never die.” So let me see if I can be more clear: Jesus did not tell them at The Last Supper “whoever ate of that bread will never die”. The Last Supper happened AFTER the...

Hi, They did mention manna....in VS 31 :) They DID think that the manna was true bread from heaven and that it was Mose who gave them that bread. That is why Jesus told them that manna was not the true bread and that He was the true bread: VS 32 it was not Moses who gave you the bread (manna)...

Hi EG, I look forward to how @Philip James will answer but I would like to chime in. Jesus told us we must eat his body and drink his blood. At The Last Supper he showed us how accomplish this. At The Last Supper he told us to do this in remembrance of Him. I believe that we must do what...

Hi EG, Thank you. Quoting verses helps very much. :) The short answer to your question is: No! Before John 6 Jesus had not yet given (past tense) the disciples food that will last forever since the food that would last forever was his flesh. He gave his flesh via the crucifixion. The long...

I didn't word my question properly. I apologize. Instead of a question I will make a statement: I do not see anywhere in John 6 where Jesus said that he already gave us food (past tense) that will last forever.

Hi EG, I think you meant 1 Cor 11 when speaking of “food a priest of someone else gives us”? The reason i ask is so I can have clarification before researching this more.

Hi EG, I am trying to understand your interpretation of John 6. Where does it say that that the food Jesus gave us (past tense) will endure forever? Respectfully, Mary

I think that is a very logical conclusion.

I understand your dilemma. :( If your friends/family are passionate about their faith and want to talk about it and they invite you to church then it is important for you to engage with them in conversation OR at least politely listen to them. Maybe even appease them and go to church with...

Whenever @Willie T post something at least I understand what he is saying. Most of the time I don’t understand what you are saying. Also, he is more articulate than me. As far as twisting Scripture OR who has a “clue” between the three of us is subjective. Would you care to get back to the...
