Did some brief google searching. Its intriguing, but is it along the lines of Chem-trail phenomena? Or Bernoulli's Principle? comments?
Super 80 said:After the lamb is served, it is this bread, called the Bread of Salvation, that Jesus uses to say is His body. The figurative connection could be made that the Bread is His flesh, but since eating human flesh is a sin, it is more likely that Jesus is saying His body is a vehicle for Salvation. Likewise with the cup of wine. This is the third cup, called the Cup of Redemption. Is Jesus saying this wine is turned into His blood or that His blood is Redemption?
mar said:Super80 how would you respond to the tenet of 'transubstantiation' where the Catholics believe that through the Eucharist, the act of Communion, that the bread and wine do in fact become the body and blood and Christ.
Not just figuratively but literally.
I suppose it's just a matter of faith isn't it?
See, this is really a problem for me. How can you pick and choose what concepts in the Bible are literal (Christ rising from the dead) and what concepts are figurative (the bread isn't *really* His flesh).
The way I see it (saw it) you either accept the Bible at it's word or you don't.
