The Eucharist Communion

catholic Eucharist is blasphemy

“Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come.”

Eventually no more servants are sent out, and the servants are reassigned inviting others to take their places at the wedding banquet of the Son.

“But some of you do not believe me.” (For Jesus knew from the beginning which ones didn't believe, and he knew who would betray him.)”

Judas tried to attend the banquet without the garment of Faith and whilst plotting Jesus betrayal.

“As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”

Instead of Eucharistic Communion with Jesus where Jesus abides in him and he in Jesus, “ Satan entered into him “ on eating the bread.

“ Jesus flesh is real food and His blood is real drink “

“But when the king came in to see the guests, he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend?’ The man was speechless.

“Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, and throw him outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

“For many are invited, but few are chosen.”

Many have heard the invite in Jesus own words, many servants have been sent out, many knocks on the door have been ignored.

In the Jewish betrothal Tradition a marriage was complete when the betrothed abided together in the same home.

“Then Joseph awoke from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and he took Mary to his home as his wife. “

In the Eucharist we see the completion of the Covenant, where two become one, Christ and His Bride the Church. The Covenant exchange of persons in marriage.

“ He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood, abides in me and I in him “

We see in the parable of the wise and foolish virgins waiting for the bride groom.
The foolish virgins did not have enough faith at the hour of the bride grooms arrival.

The time to believe Jesus words in Faith is now, don’t walk off to town buy more Faith, and come back when you are good and ready.

This is the time when the Bride Groom tests the Bride, tests her faith in Him. The final test, the singularity of Faith.

What does Peter do in John 6 in the face of Jesus hard teaching that His flesh is real food and blood is real drink, whilst others are leaving Jesus?

Does Peter say he understands? No. Peter doesn’t humanly understand at all. Peter wisely bypasses human understanding which profits nothing at that point, and he makes a supernatural act of faith in Jesus WORDS.

“Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of everlasting life.”

Congratulations Peter, you are clothed in the garment of Faith.
Peter believed it because Jesus said it, not because he understood it.

Jesus didn’t require them to understand, He required them to believe Him in Faith.

Contrast this with Judas.

“ Yet there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray him.”

When did Judas betray Him? At the Last Supper, when he took the bread that Jesus had consecrated as His Body.
It was then that Satan entered him.

Judas didn’t believe Jesus words, he had no garment of Faith for the banquet.

Does it ever record Judas replying to Jesus question, or was he speechless.

“He approached Jesus to kiss him, but Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

“He asked, 'How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend? ' The man was speechless.”

The Eucharist is the wedding banquet of The Son.

Many are called but few are chosen.
