Christian / Catholic despite what appears to display if a mass is the same as the participant?
(eat) with those who oppose their beliefs? What do you think?
"The crucifixion of Jesus was" once and for all. "
The Mass is the sacrifice of Jesus again and again, which is saying that the sacrifice on the cross was not good enough.
I will not attend a Mass because it is blasphemy. Stand G was the answer to whether one should attend a Protestant mass like the Eucharist, although aware of the doctrinal differences and does not participate?
I can understand the views on the Catholic or even why they think that a Protestant could not give due respect to the dinner, however, think the same of them? And a priest who is the duty of a "minister of sacrifice" serving "in the place of Christ," if Christ is the only mediator between God and man and why is his bow and fold arms across your chest to another human being?
- Why make a New Catholic Church Mass after Vatican II?
- Why the Catholic Church open for Mass every day and only the Protestant Church on Sunday morning?

- For those who attend a Catholic Mass, what are your thoughts about the use of incense?
Wow, well, we will try to take one at a time.
1. Display = Mass Participation?
Mass is a prayer to God. It is worship, submission, worship. The Christian is to attend a church involved in this. But if you do not receive communion, which are not "eat with" them, which is outside of a maintenance step. Visualization of the Mass, without participating in the Eucharist is thus the part.
2. Crucifixion "once and for all?"
Yes, Jesus' crucifixion was good enough, and for all time, it's not like he needs to keep getting crucified. Jesus, however, said 'Do this in memory of me ". Offer the Eucharist at Mass is a reminder that God the sacrifice of Jesus (as the rainbow is a reminder of their covenant). Protestants teach that you must accept his sacrifice in order to be saved. This is what Catholics are doing. It is to accept and offer sacrifice to God.
3. Assistance w / or Eucharistic participation?
To be honest, the Mass without the Eucharist can easily be a Protestant service. You song communal confession / repentence, scriptural readings, homily, Petitions, the sign of peace, and worship. What part of that do not agree with? Be aware of differences does not condone, and refuse to enter into the Christian faith with a partner seems to be a rejection of the unity of Christ calls.
4. Respect for the Eucharist?
There is a huge difference between taking the bread and wine, and taking God. Reverence, understanding, mentality is all wrong if you think you are only eating bread and drinking wine, and nothing else. You can respect the representation of the Last Supper, but I'm sure you do not deal with the same reverence as if it were a God if he appeared in front of you. I think that is the difference.
5. Minister of sacrifice?
I do not think anyone is acting in the place of Christ ", but there have been" ministers of killing "since the days of Levi. Then Hebrews 7:12 states that the old priesthood is to be replaced with a new priesthood - a priesthood, and not just a man. At the Last Supper, Jesus told the Apostles to "do this in memory of me." It is not a duty that carries the Eucharist? And that is transferred to the priests of today through the apostolic succession and the laying on of hands (1 Tim. Col 4:14 and 1:25, for example).
6. Christ, the only mediator?
The Old Testament had priests who offered sacrifices to God. NT has the burden of the Apostles of God to re-enact the Last Supper (Eucharist). 1 Tim 2:5 says that Jesus is the only mediator between God and the human race, 1 Tim 2:1, but also states that there is to intercede before God for others. Acts gives many references to the apostles that God's instruments on earth - the performance of miracles, etc Rev 8:4 is an angel who offers our prayers to God. Maybe Tim is, then, that Jesus is the great mediator, to a career in general, but people can still be intercessors for others in the personal and group level.
7. Bow and watch?
And do not bow his head to receive the blessing of God (I know what you're talking about)? Is an expression of humility before God. The crossed arms are a sign of reverence, but simply an indication that no one wants to receive communion. It is a clear and obvious, but any other would do just as well.
Eucharist is a sacrament:
Luke, Chapter 22:
19 And he took bread and gave thanks, and brake, and gave them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood which is shed for you.
keep it simple.
Christ said: "Do this in remembrance of me" at the last supper was held the first Mass I suspect they are just a rabble rouser and his "Traveler" a screen name fool communist.
that seem to be worried about many things …. I hope you find what you want before it's to late.
The Mass is not "sacrifice Jesus over and over again." Is the representation of the once and for all sacrifice of Christ on the cross, that the maintenance once and for all the sacrifice this time his followers until the end of time, rather than allowing it to become merely a historical event with the age without direct connection with the present. For this reason, our Lord and Savior Founder, Jesus Christ, personally, after celebrating the first Mass, in command of the first priests of his Church, "do this [what I do] in remembrance of me." Does your church obey this direct command from the lips of God himself? If not, why not? Not mine!
