You gave me the verse we’re debating and your interpretation of it, with no external verses to support your interpretation. I gave you other verses to support my interpretation. At this point you’re just ignoring the statements I’ve made and saying you’re right without actually attempting to prove it. But yeah, I think I’m done with this discussion as well.

I believe my interpretation is correct because as I said, bread has been symbolically used to represent the word of God, and there are other verses from the Bible that I can use to support that particular claim. So when Jesus says to eat of his flesh and drink of his blood I believe that (in short) he is saying to read the Bible. Now, you can tell me I’m wrong, but I really need scriptural evidence that supports your claim, otherwise we really aren’t going to get anywhere with this. I’m not trying to attack or defend any particular belief, I just wanna find the truth. My claim has scriptural evidence that can support it, and you’re just telling me that I’m wrong for not interpreting it literally. And both of us should know that not every word that Jesus spoke was meant to be taken literally, for example, Matthew 5:30, when Jesus says that if your right arm offends you, cut it off. Obviously Jesus isn’t commanding self mutilation, but to flee from sin. So why would he mean we literally eat parts of his body? If you can show other verses to support a literal interpretation you can probably change my mind. I also agree with the verse “do this in memory of me”, I like communion as a tradition, I’m not against it whatsoever. Also, please just respond with a comment man.

I don’t say the verse John 3:16 contradicted the verse man, I said it contradicted your interpretation of it, and you’re labeling my questioning as “bashing” when I’m trying to find the conclusion to what we’re talking about. And see? You say I’m trying to lower it and make it “less than” just because im discussing my opinion and interpretation with you. I’m pretty sure I never said “you’re absolutely wrong and so are Catholics” I said “id like to talk about this, here’s my thoughts” and you act like I’m trying to attack Christ. And every time I’ve asked you for cited evidence of bread meaning flesh or for a biblical example of why I’m wrong, you act like I never even asked for it. I just don’t get why I’d want to participate in eating a part of Jesus, and despite the bread and wine retaining the same exact characteristics of bread and wine, you believe it is the actual flesh and blood of our God. And more power to you! I think it’s fine that you do it, but when you demonize me and say that I’m attacking Jesus because I interpret a a verse differently, yeah! That’s gonna make anyone at least uncomfortable. It makes it impossible to actually talk with you because I’m constantly having to explain that I’m not attacking your beliefs or Christ. There are other times in the Bible that bread is called the WORD rather than the flesh. And in past events in the Bible, when Jesus changed something into something else, it changed literally, entirely, the way it looked, smelled, felt and tasted, such as water to wine. So why would the bread and wine not literally become flesh and blood? The bread still tastes and feels like bread and the wine is the same.

Pray for our country. 🙏🏾💙🙏🏻💙🙏🏾

Protestants think its just a euphemism for the bible ( the word )itself. But when Jesus says my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink... How can anyone not see that by refusing to do this .... that they are the ones that couldnt accept that teaching and they are the ones.that walked away from our Lord. They deny Jesus's power and the fact that He can and still does miracles.

I’d like to talk about this, and before I comment I should say I’m not set in any particular denomination but I lie in with the Protestants, mostly because of the pope and baptism of babies but those are off topic. My thoughts about the communion, I think that Jesus taking the bread and giving it to them is pretty significant. For it to be literally his blood and flesh, wouldn’t Jesus himself need to give it away? I understand the significance of the tradition and I’m all for it, but our “interpretation” seems pretty literal, and aligns greatly with what the verse says.

Isaiah 56 & Matthew 19 tells us what God thinks of lgtbq people who please Him, You will be surprised. This is the message we should be sending to them.

Lolol i love this

Blessed is he who does not see and yet believes.

How can anyone see this and say ... there is no God ?

You made him up cause your too stupid to use your brain

He's not real

Pray the Sorrowful mysteries of the Holy Rosary and contemplate on each mystery It brings me to tears of repentance. This alone brought me so close to our Lord 🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏🏾

Humility is the key for dealing with harsh people and it expels the devil quickly...Try not to judge . Your on a stage for the world and you gotta expect non thought out comments , and people reacting to you harshly now and again. Try to think like Jesus and yes thats easier said than done. But try to face all you get with humility. No proud peacocks in Catholocism and if there is then you know their not truly Christian.

That's a lovely cat. God bless you!

Jesus is the best❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Nothing more majestic than a Crucifix in a beautiful Church...🙏🏽🙏🏻🙏🏾 Pray the Holy Rosary daily and obtain that peace that defies understanding.

I will pray for Steven, my friend and i wish i had watched this one sooner. You got quite a few videos out.

Lolol

Cute cat. And the light shone through the darkness but the darkness could not comprehend it.

I do adoration at home, not in front of Eucharist obviously but i can adore our Lord 24 hours a day. Immigrants i feel because all of my grandparents were immigrants as children i think we need to let all who enter to come freely after they undergo a light vetting. Many mexicans are coming for asylum from illegal drug pushers etc. America is built on centuries of immigrants. And each nationality has faced conflicts from other established first or second generation immigrant-americans. The italian,the irish, the polanders, germans have all faced the same discrimination as they tried to establish families in America.

Good morning Zach. Yes that is being an ass. Lol

Lol ikewym man. Theres always something to lookup

On the same page with you about communion my friend... Exactly.

english or spanish

Don't. ! JESUS NEEDS YOU FREE TO HELP OTHERS AND WE HAVE A REPUTATION TO BE PRESERVED... Follow me for I am meek and humble of heart.

Google this : the dark side of martin luther and in just a few minutes you will learn much. The original broken cornerstone is, was, and always will be Jesus. We broke Him through the crucifixion. I frequently pray for the unification of all Christians and the renewal of our Catholic Church. Keep cranking videos out Zachary im trying to watch all of them by watching a few everyday.

I'm betting on the shepard. And the smaller one surely is Otis

Your collage of Jesus pics moved me to tell you that Zachariah.

I had an open eyed vision of Jesus once. I was in a horrible spot in life and i was pleading to God for help. I was repeating the Jesus prayer over and over like a mantra and for 2 days straight. And then about 7 pm i heard an audible "POP" in the air above me and there He was. I was so frightened that i bolted across the driveway and sure i had imagined it i turned sround very slowly but He was still there and being a distance away i could see He wasnt alone... it was like a hologram scene very misty about 20 ' in the air. He was standing in the midst of a field and had 2 groups of people 1 on either side of Him. The people on His left side were all huddled togethor in small groups sitting on the ground and very quiet they were. The people on His right side were all all talking and happy. And every few minutes He would call out names from a paper He had in His hands and people from the left side would stand up and move to Him and He gave every person a hug and a kiss as He directed them to move to the right side of the field. The peopple were ecstatic with joy and i heard Him laugh at one point as i stood there with my mouth hanging open not believing what was going on in front of me. This went on for 20 minutes, and i remember this odd detail about it and that detail was i could see their breath in the air like it was very chilly where they were... yet it was a warm spring night in buffalo ny. Then a friend of mine saw me outside and pulled into my driveway to see what was up with me, and as soon as he did the whole scene vanished. Ive never been the same person since that night. (Thank God for large miracles)

Your welcome and im praying for you .

Maybe the article meant it generally. Some people (including me) have it with their breakfast almost every morning. 😅

Hey my friend everyday i watch morning mass of the Divine Mercy Church its on youtube. This mornings mass was about trials in life and how to handle them. If youd like to check it lookup Divine Mercy and go to todays mass.

Its in the psalms. God loves us all indeed, but if you dont love Him back He lets you go your own way. But if He knocks and you answer the door His mercy endures for you till your dying day.

You got a fan in me man. Your a young person with an intelligent reasonable point of view thats a rare thing these days.

Protestants had a role in my journey too it was through them God initially spoke to me but then He quickly steered me back to the Catholic Church i was born and raised in Catholocism but left when i was 19 or 20. Protestants are excellent at preaching and making you feel inspired, but anybody who does the homework on Martin Luther and says im happy to be Protestant ? Didnt do their homework. Did you know that Luther wrote a book entitled "On Jews and Their Lies " ? In it he encourages the burning down of homes,schools and synagogues ... And the nazi party even used quotes from this book to further their propaganda and to convince the german people that antisemitism had a long Christian history. This fact usually quiets the Protestant down considerably im sad to say. Martin Luther was a controlling manipulator and when he couldnt convert the Jews of his day he started a hate speech against them. Check out the audio book on youtube its disturbing to say the least... And. Soooo many prots bash the Catholic church its really deplorable Its almost as though thats their theology is to try and prove the Catholics wrong. Google search on this : the dark side of martin luther it truly opened my eyes.

That Rosary might have been the thing that saved his life too. Ykwim ? Lol

L joke

so unfunny
