At the Last Supper, Jesus said, "Take this bread. It's my body. "Then he said:" Take this and drink. This is my blood. Do this in memory of me. "
Catholics that this was the first Eucharist, through a miracle that the bread and wine actually become the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
Catholics reenact the Last Supper at every Mass, where God, through the priest changes the bread and wine into the body and blood of Jesus Christ.
This is a great sacrament of thanksgiving and unity of Catholics.
Indeed, the Orthodox, Lutheran and many Anglican Churches also believe in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist.
For more information, see the Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 1322 et seq: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt2s …
With love in Christ.

As a former Catholic …. Much is taught that only the Catholic doctrine … No Bible and TRUE!
When I was … Born Again [read my testimony on my blog / 360] I was open to the truth … as described in the Bible!
Jesus …. here …..!
(Romans 8:34) Who condemneth? It is Christ who died, yes rather, that is risen again, = Who is still on the right hand of God = Who also intercedes for us.
YET …. every Catholic Cross ….. JESUS HAS YET … ON IT! Yes, in every Catholic Church … JESUS IS STILL ON THE CROSS ….!
See what the Bible … Says …..?
(Mark 16:6) And he said to them, not affrighted =: = Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth who was crucified =: = is increased, it is not = here: = here is where you started.
… And yet THEY .. He has … Still in the cross!
Thanks RR

This is a sermon, not a question. Is contrary to the purpose and rules of this site.
I respect the Catholic, not preach.

We believe it is because Christ said it was so.
For some, the argument of Scripture is capped by an appeal to John 6:63: "It is the spirit that gives life, the flesh is useless, the words that I have spoken are spirit and life."
In John 6:63 "flesh profits nothing" refers to the inclination of humanity to think only with their natural human reason instead of telling them what God said. Thus, in John 8:15-16 Jesus said to his opponents: "You judge according to the flesh, I judge anyone. However, even if I do judge, my view is true, because it's not just judge me but me and that sent me. "Juicio as human nature, unaided by the grace of God is not reliable, but the view of God is always true.
In John 6:63 "meat" does not refer to Christ's own flesh, the context makes this clear, but the humanity of the inclination to think of an individual, human level. "The words I have spoken are spirit" does not mean "What I say is symbolic." The word "spirit" is never used as such in the Bible. The line means that what Christ said to be understood only through faith, only by the power of the Spirit and the drawing of the Father.
Anything else can be said, the early Church took John 6 literally. In fact, there is no record of the early Christian centuries question that involves the constant Catholic interpretation. There is no document in which the literal interpretation is opposed and only metaphorical accepted.
Why fundamentalists and evangelicals reject the plain, literal interpretation of John 6? For them, the sacraments are not Catholics, because it implies a spiritual reality-grace-which is passed through the area. This seems to be a violation of the divine plan. For many Protestants, the field is not used, but to overcome or avoid.
But God approves of the material agree with him because he created it and approves of both comes to us under the appearances of bread and wine, as it does in the physical form of the incarnate Christ.

The correct word should be "this is in remembrance of my body for bread in remembrance of the blood for wine or water as they serve. If the Bible is not being damaged by the philosophers and theologians who should get the right wording Last Supper that Christ officiated last.
If Christ was a different body and died and he looks to have another option if you would have to do? This is reincarnation.
Humans have only one body and one spirit of this set to face their fate on the day of trial.

John 6 for one of their many are believing the apostles Maybe the same thing
I must add that without the Bible teaches and speaks bad TRADITON to call Jesus a liar and Protestants fleeing from it. Read John 6:66 and see that the first Protestants were
Real presence in the Eucharist
" 'Truly, truly, I say unto you, he who believes has everlasting life. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the desert and died. This is the bread that comes down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof and not die. I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any one eats of this bread will live forever, and the bread that I shall give for the life of the world is my flesh. "The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying:" How can this man give us his flesh to eat? "Then Jesus said to them," Truly, truly, I say, if you do not eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you do not have in life, and who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life and I will raise him up at the last day. For my flesh is real food and my blood is drink indeed "(John 6:47-55).
"To which I received from the Lord that you gave, the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took bread, and when he had given thanks, broke it and said, 'This is my body which is you. Do this in remembrance of me. "In the same way also the cup after supper, saying," This cup is the new covenant in my blood. do this whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me. "For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, which proclaim the Lord's death until he comes" (1 Cor. 11:23-26).
"Whoever therefore eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy way to be guilty of profaning the body and blood of the Lord" (1 Cor. 11:27).

In addition to my beautiful sister
At the Last Supper on the night he was betrayed, our Savior instituted the Eucharistic sacrifice of his Body and Blood. This was done in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the cross throughout the ages until he should come again, and to entrust to his beloved Bride, the Church, a memorial of his death and resurrection: a sacrament of love, a sign of unity, a bond of charity, paschal banquet in which Christ is consumed, the mind is filled with grace and a pledge of future glory is given to us.

Mary
In Revelation, when John is the displacement of eating, do teach that the Catholic priests was handed some rolling paper and what he really chewed and swallowed it? No. When Jesus met the Samaritan woman at the well and told him that I would give living water, which made him Holy Water? No. At the last supper, Jesus said, "Do this in remembrance of me." Are the disciples receive the Holy Spirit in the Last Supper when you ate bread and drank wine? No. The Catholic Church and the belief system is formed as a governing body to control the population. They need the public (at the time) to believe that Jesus and the power held within its walls and control. Why do you think Martin Luther was scared in the Catholic Church?

I agree with Deirdre, you are in violation of the guidelines. You are not asking a question. You are preaching the Roman Catholic doctrine.
