TELLING THE TRUTH
2005-12-22 05:42:11 UTC
CATHOLIC TRADITION - The mass. Through transubstantiation, the wafer/host
and the wine supposedly become the actual blood and body of Jesus Christ
when the priest prays over them.
WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS - Jesus died once for sins, never to be repeated. He
sits on the right hand of God and does not reappear in the mass as a mass of
blood and flesh.
Hebrews
10:12 But this man [Jesus], after he had offered one sacrifice for sins
for ever, sat down on the right hand of God;
10:13 From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool.
10:14 For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are
sanctified.
10:15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he
had said before,
10:16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days,
saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds
will I write them;
10:17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.
10:18 Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.
John
19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is
finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.
1 Corinthians
11:24 And when he [Jesus] had given thanks, he brake it [bread], and said,
Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance
of me.
11:25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped,
saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye
drink it, in remembrance of me.
11:26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew
the Lord's death till he come (not for the forgiveness of sins or to receive
Jesus).
