New survey: Only one-third of Catholics believe in Real Presence

Strawman/ad hominem/red herring.

 

Funny how you always respond with quick, hit-and-run posts, but you never stick around to explain your answers.
WHY is that?

 

John 6 is symbolism. Manna saved the Hebrew in the wilderness. So does the flesh of the savior being crucified and raised again save humanity. He is not literally saying "eat my flesh" we are not cannibals.

 

Ummm, I see that you "responded" to me on a thread that I do not have permission to respond because I am not Baptist: John 3:5 Is Not Requiring Baptism For Salvation

How "brave" of you . . .

 

First, you should not assign intent. I had no idea you couldn't access that thread. Second, if you read the article you see I already went in depth. If you have further gripes about it, YOU start a new thread somewhere you can see.

 

Funny that you should use the word "cannibal" because that is precisely what the Romans accused the Early Church of because of their worship and consumption of the Eucharist.

- Explain to me why Jesus didn't explain the "symbolism" to His Apostles like he always did - instead of simply asking of they ALSO wanted to leave.

- Explain the use of the Greek "Trogon" for the way an animal rips apart his food as opposed to the usual "Phagon", which is the way a human eats.

- Explain why most of His disciples LEFT Him that day and returned to their former way of life if this was all just "symbolism".

 

This is a discussion/debate forum. Bring your case to the table.

I do not read article or watch video links.
Make your case here for ALL to read like I have - or why bother posting?

 

If you want to continue this discussion on Baptism - move your thread to an open place where I have access - and I will engage you there.

 

Because it is SELF-EXPLANATORY. So do you literally eat the flesh and blood of Christ?

 

I don't have a way to do that. Clearly you don't want to take initiative to discuss it because you can't.

 

We consume our Lord sacramentally - Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity under the appearance/accidents of bread and wine.
That is what HE prescribed at the Last Supper.

 

Because we have been asked by a Moderator to move the Baptism discussion elsewhere.
YOU shouldn't assign intent . . .

 

Yes or no, do you eat the literal flesh and blood of Christ?

 

Right, and I did move it elsewhere. You didn't like it but yet you won't start your own thread.

 

I can't respond to it because I am not identified as a Baptist here.
I already explained that to you.

Besides, YOU are the one who decided to argue with ME about Baptism - so the onus to start a thread is on YOU.
I couldn't care less . . .

 

I did start a thread. Thanks. Sorry if you can't post there, but honestly makes me wonder why you are at a Baptist board to begin with. That being said, feel free to start a thread so I can, again, show you how you are in deep error on the topic of John 3.

 

What's wrong with you??
I just got done explaining this.in post #31.

Go back and R*E*A*D it again.

 

Why??
It was never my intent to argue about Baptism. YOU'RE the one who had a problem with it - not me . . .

 

Yes or no? Do you believe we eat the literal flesh and blood of Christ disguised as bread and wine? Why is this so hard to answer? Simple yes or no.

 

I was invited here.
Hear there were a lot of anti-Catholics who needed to hear the truth.
