The Bread of Life

[rockiesguy]

Read on further Corinthians Chap 1: 11 which goes on to say that Tradition of this Institution, This is the answer to The True vallue of both the cup & the wine. .

Here are the facts of the True Presence in both the body & blood.

[rockiesguy]

What a mess, what a slap in the face to those who believe in the true presence,

body , bolod , sou and divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Eucharist becomes nothing here and this Catholic church should be sad to think it has brought about

the disrespect of our confused protestants below. Saf and might say These priests at this church most likely do not know this statement is made before the

filing of the video.

[AlleluiaPTLord]

Praise the Lord Alleluia

[gm2472]

If the Catholic Church is not the TRUE church of Jesus Christ then what are the 1 billion faithful worldwide doing? We are following Christ's real word "eat my flesh and drink my blood" How can 1 billion be wrong. The "Born Again"religions were not even present until well after the Protestant Reformation. The Catholic church has been in place since the apostles founded it after Christ's death.

[kiwichristian2009]

@gm2472 They are following satans counterfeit christianity.

[LumaniLienedel26]

Beautiful video! Thank you for posting! I am a devotee of the Sacred Heart myself and I love Jesus so much...

[OAMission]

Where does the Bible show us the substance of the Bread changing?

[wjnavarre]

Answer why Jesus said on the cross, I thirst and after he drank he said it is finished. Find out what he finished and you will find the truth. PS if you know nothing of the jewish worship of God you will never fully understand Christianity or what Jesus did on the cross. Jesus was a devout Jew. Look up the 4th cup by scott hahn.

[ralphnzee]

what a scripture battle!! lol ?!?! too many people try to claim they are the true way? peace be with you. amen ;-P

[notofthisworld55]

In the OT the Jewsh Tabrncl was the work of God - not man. It ws God who drw up its plan, giving its exact dimensions, stipulating the matrls 2 b used in its cnstrctn, describing its sacred furnshngs & vessels 4 the service, & the vestments & ornaments 4 the priests who would minister therein. He gave it a suitable cnsttutn, appnted its rulers, & defined the extent of their power. (See Bk of Exodus, chptrs 25 thru 31, entire Bk of Leviticus; Book of Numbers, chptrs 1, 3 thru 8, and 17 and 18.),

[notofthisworld55]

CHRIST DID ESTABLISH SUCH A CHURCH, AND IT IS THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH

When Christ left us and ascended into Heaven, He gave His powers to the Church He had founded: "All power has been given Me by My Father; go then" (in virtue of this power that I delegate 2 U) "teach all nations 2 keep My commandments. He who hears you, hears Me; he who despises U, despises Me" (Matt. 28:1&20; Luke 10:16). the Church is invested with the authority of Jesus Christ; she speaks & commands in Our Lord's name.

[bdplist]

WithOut using PRIVATE interpretation PRIVATE Definitions OR INdoctrination

I was wondering just how do the PRE&POST nicean fathers support a dogma that was not invented till the NINTH CENTURY?

ANS?_________

WHAT BIBLE text indicates to you that there is a CHANGE in the REAL substance of the BREAD?????

ANS?__________

[wjnavarre]

the cross

[kiwichristian2009]

@bdplist Does the bread taste of bread, or flesh? Does the wine taste of wine, or blood? This is just magical hocus-pocus by the evil rcc.

[bdplist]

How sad that one would think ingesting something was "FOR Faith"

Romans 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

RM 12:3 God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Ephesians 3:17 That Christ may dwell in your hearts BY faith

Galatians 3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

Believe not eat!

[fuxu123]

reply to:

romans 10:17 by hearing the word of god through faith one does understand the verse this is my body this is my blood as the actual body and blood of christ.

Eph 3:17 Christ does dwell in the heart of the catholic according to faith otherwise how can a catholic be given the gift of faith in the real prescence.

[bdplist]

The same way a Mormon has FAITH in their latter day "prophets"

RM 10:17 has to do with the WORD OF GOD not with Roman CATholic FABLES

FAITH comes by the word of God not by the word of lying priests

Read the Bible it will scare the CATholic out of you!

[fuxu123]

i have read the bible and as far as I'm concerned it hasn't scared anything out of me.

[kiwichristian2009]

@bdplist Amen, my friend! Can any catholic provide a single example of a doctrine that originates from an oral Apostolic Tradition that the Bible is silent about? Provide proof that this doctrinal tradition is apostolic in origin.

[bdplist]

SATAN said in the day ye EAT thereof Gen 3:5

Believe NOT eat!

John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Even JN 6 says BELIEVE JN 6:29, 6:35, 6:47 6:40 6:69

6:47 He that believeth on me HATH everlasting life

[bdplist]

So here is "more on Augustine" & I find he says you are in carnal bondage:

"for example, as the sacrament of baptism, and the celebration of the BODY and BLOOD of the Lord. And as soon as any one looks upon these observances he knows to What they REFER, and so reveres them not in CARNAL bondage, but in SPIRITUAL freedom. Now, as to follow the LETTER, and to take SIGNS for the things that are signified by them, is a mark of WEAKness and BONDAGE

Augustine On Christian Doctrine, Book 3

[LumaniLienedel26]

John 6:53-55: "I tell you the truth, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Whoever 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 real drink." This is from your Bible, actually.

Your assertion that only the spiritual can be good, that everything physical is evil, is reminiscent of the Gnostic heresy that was stamped out by the Apostles in the first century.

[bdplist]

AUGUSTINE

He admitted him to the Supper in which He committed and delivered to His disciples the FIGURE of His Body and Blood. on Psalm 3

The Lord did not hesitate to say: This is My Body, when He wanted to give a SIGN of His body Against Adimant

[The sacraments] bear the names of the realities which they RESEMBLE. As, therefore, in a certain MANNER the sacrament of Christ's body is Christ's body, and the sacrament of Christ's blood is Christ's blood Letter 98 to Boniface

[SacredHeartChurch]

You sound like the Arians who use selective scriptures to prove Jesus is not God. Read more of Augustine and you will find he clearly believed Jesus was truly present in the Eucharist. Tell you what I'll even post it for you.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Augustine Sermons 227

...I promised you, who have now been baptized, a sermon in which I would explain the Sacrament of the Lord's Table, which you now look upon and of which you last night were made participants. You ought to know what you have received, what you are going to receive, and what you ought to receive daily. That Bread which you see on the altar, having been sanctified by the word of God, is the Body of Christ.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Augustine Sermons 227 (cont.)

That chalice, or rather, what is in that chalice, having been sanctified by the word of God, is the Blood of Christ. Through that bread and wine the Lord Christ willed to commend His Body and Blood, which He poured out for us unto the forgiveness of sins. If you receive worthily, you are what you have received.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Augustine Sermons 272

What you see is the bread and the chalice; that is what your own eyes report to you. But what your faith obliges you to accept is that the bread is the Body of Christ and the chalice the Blood of Christ. ... How is the bread His Body? And the chalice, or what is in the chalice, how is it His Blood? Those elements, brethren, are called Sacraments, because in them one thing is seen, but another is understood.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Augustine (City of God 10,5; 10,20, c. 426)

Christ is both the Priest, offering Himself, and Himself the Victim. He willed that the sacramental sign of this should be the daily sacrifice of the Church, who, since the Church is His body and He the Head, learns to offer herself through Him.

[SacredHeartChurch]

P.S. You should really read the section in the current Cathechism of the Catholic church about what a sacrament is and in particular the Eucharist. I'm not sure you understand what the church actually teaches about this mystery. God bless.

[bdplist]

I understand enough to know that what they teach is not what the Apostles taught.

AFA Augustine is concernerned when his statements are understood in their totality & in context of him believing it as a "SIGN" as a "FIGURE" it is a RESEMBLANCE of the REALITY it represents

Else why did he use such metaphorical language for something you claim he saw as literal?

[bdplist]

ON taking METAPHOR LITERALLY

our Lord Himself and apostolic practice, have handed down to us a few rites in place of many (OT rites)...for example...the celebration of the body and blood of the Lord. And as soon as any one looks upon these OBSERVANCES he knows TO WHAT THEY REFER and so reveres them not in CARNAL BONDAGE but in SPIRITUAL freedom. Now as to follow the LETTER and TO TAKE SIGNS FOR THE THINGS that are SIGNIFIED by them is a Mark of WEAKNESS and BONDAGE On Christian Doctrine Book 3

[bdplist]

( cont )

"so to interpret SIGNS wrongly is the result of being misled by error."

Augustine, On Christian Doctrine 3,9

(Augustine called it a SIGN in Against Adimant)

Chrysostom "On the Treachery of Judas, 1, 6" (407 A.D.)

It is not the power of man which makes what is put before us the Body and Blood of Christ, but the power of Christ Himself who was crucified for us. The priest standing there in the place of Christ says these words but their power and grace are from God. 'This is My Body,' he says, and these words transform what lies before him.

[bdplist]

John 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

The Bread He speaks of ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT be FLESH since he did not bring His Flesh with Him from Heaven!

Try substituting the word FLESH in this verse. That is HERESY

Word became FLESH

Galatians 4:4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, MADE OF A WOMAN

Of the SEED of a woman Gen 3:15

[SacredHeartChurch]

The first 1500 years of Christianity disagrees with you. I recommend you read some of the early fathers of the church as well as the Catholic catechism, and Scott Hahn. God bless you, Marc

[bdplist]

But I have read them, just because you have not don't assume everyone is as ignorant of the fathers

So you believe the HERESY that the FLESH came down from heaven?

[SacredHeartChurch]

The Word came down from heaven... "And the Word was made Flesh"

[bdplist]

John 6:33 For the bread of God is he which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

The BREAD does not equal FLESH here becase

God came down from heaven "HE" which cometh down

God was here in the Flesh but did not bring flesh from heaven

He ascended into heaven in the FLESH but did not come down IN flesh but became FLESH

The BREAD of Life is a PERSON not a cookie

[bdplist]

Interesting you are just like a Mormon or Jehovahs Witness who promise folks a "Bible study" & then pull the switcheroo and end up substituting mens RELIGIOUS works rather than the Holy Word of God

Shame on you!

[SacredHeartChurch]

I'm not interested in a youtube debate. I'll just say this. You use the Bible to make your point yet you reject the Church that God used to give it to you.

"As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction." 2 Peter 3:16

[bdplist]

Eucharist is actually a GREEK word meaning THANKS. Nowhere is the gospel called "thanks"

METAPHOR: A form of trope founded on RESEMBLANCE, a figure of speech whereby one object is likened to another. Pointing to a picture & saying this is mom is metaphor.

Ignatius to the smyrnaens ch.8 (110 AD)

Let the celebration of the Eucharist be considered valid which is held under the bishop or anyone to whom he has committed it. Where the bishop appears, there let the people be, just as where Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church. 110 A.D.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Ignatius to the smyrnaens ch.7 (110 AD)

They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they confess not the Eucharist to be the flesh of our Saviour Jesus Christ, which suffered for our sins, and which the Father, of His goodness, raised up again. Those, therefore, who speak against this gift of God, incur death in the midst of their disputes. 110 A.D.

Justin Martyrs first apology  ch.66 (155 AD)

And this food is called among us Eukaristia [the Eucharist], of which no one is allowed to partake but the man who believes that the things which we teach are true, and who has been washed with the washing that is for the remission of sins, and unto regeneration, and who is so living as Christ has enjoined.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Justin Martyrs first apology ch.66 (155 AD) (cont.)

For not as common bread and common drink do we receive these; but in like manner as Jesus Christ our Saviour, having been made flesh by the Word of God, had both flesh and blood for our salvation, so likewise have we been taught that the food which is blessed by the prayer of His word, and from which our blood and flesh by transmutation are nourished, is the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Irenaeus Against Heresies bk.4 ch.18 (189 AD)

"For as the bread, which is produced from the earth, when it receives the invocation of God, is no longer common bread, but the Eucharist, consisting of two realities, earthly and heavenly; so also our bodies, when they receive the Eucharist, are no longer corruptible, having the hope of the resurrection to eternity. (189 A.D.)

[SacredHeartChurch]

Irenaeus Against Heresies bk.5 ch.2 (189 AD)

"When, therefore, the mingled cup and the baked bread receives the Word of God, and becomes the Eucharist, the blood and the body of Christ, and from these the substance of our flesh is increased and supported, how can they say that the flesh is incapable of receiving the gift of God, which is life eternal, which [flesh] is nourished from the body and blood of the Lord, and is a member of Him? (189 A.D.)

[SacredHeartChurch]

Cyprian on the Lords Prayer CH.18 (252 A.D.)

Moreover, we ask that this bread be given daily, lest we, who are in Christ and receive the Eucharist daily as food of salvation, with the intervention of some more grievous sin, while we are shut off and as non-communicants are kept from the heavenly bread, be separated from the body of Christ as He Himself declares, saying: 'I am the bread of life which came down from heaven.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Cyprian on the Lords Prayer (cont.)

If any man eat of my bread he shall live forever. Moreover, the bread that I shall give is my flesh for the life of the world.' Since then He says that, if anyone eats of His bread, he lives forever, as it is manifest that they live who attain to His body and receive the Eucharist by right of communion, so on the other hand we must fear and pray lest anyone, while he is cut off and separated from the body of Christ, remain apart from salvation,

[SacredHeartChurch]

Cyprian on the Lords Prayer (cont.)

as He Himself threatens, saying: 'Unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink His blood, you shall not have life in you.' And so we petition that our bread, that is Christ, be given us daily, so that we, who abide and live in Christ, may not withdraw from His sanctification and body.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Cyprian to the Ephesians (258 A.D.)

The priest who imitates that which Christ did, truly takes the place of Christ, and offers there in the Church a true and perfect sacrifice to God the Father.

@SacredHeartChurch Cardinal Newman admits in his book that; the temples, incense, oil lamps, votive offerings, holy water, Holidays, and seasons of devotion, processions, blessings of the fields, sacerdotal vestments, the tonsure (of priests, munks and nuns), images, and statues are all of PAGAN ORIGIN. -The Development of the Christian Religion Cardinal Newman p.359

Cyril of Jerusalem "Catechetical Lectures n. 22 v.3" (350 A.D.)

Wherefore with full assurance let us partake as of the Body and Blood of Christ: for in the figure of Bread is given to thee His Body, and in the figure of Wine His Blood; that thou by partaking of the Body and Blood of Christ, mayest be made of the same body and the same blood with Him.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Cyril of Jerusalem "Catechetical Lectures n. 22 v.3" (cont.)

For thus we come to bear Christ in us, because His Body and Blood are distributed through our members; thus it is that, according to the blessed Peter, we became partakers of the divine nature.

@SacredHeartChurch The Catechism of the Council of Trent states these words: "It is lawful to have images in the Church, and to give honor and worship unto them...".

The twenty-fifth session of the Council of Trent decrees that the images of Christ and the Virgin Mary, and of the other saints, are especially to be had and retained in the churches, and that honor and veneration are to be paid to them.

That chalice, or rather, what is in that chalice, having been sanctified by the word of God, is the Blood of Christ.

Chrysostom "Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew, 82, 4" (370 A.D.)

Let us submit to God in all things and not contradict Him, even if what He says seems contrary to our reason and intellect; rather let His words prevail over our reason and intellect. Let us act in this way with regard to the (eucharistic) mysteries, looking not only at what falls under our senses but holding on to His words. For His word cannot lead us astray. . .

[SacredHeartChurch]

Chrysostom "Homilies on the Gospel of Matthew, 82, 4" (370 A.D.) cont.

When the word says, `This is My Body', be convinced of it and believe it, and look at it with the eyes of the mind. . . How many now say, `I wish I could see His shape, His appearance, His garments, His sandals.' Only look! You see Him! You touch Him! You eat Him!

[SacredHeartChurch]

Chrysostom "on the second Epistle to Timothy, 2, 4" (397 A.D.)

I wish to add something that is plainly awe-inspiring, but do not be astonished or upset. This Sacrifice, no matter who offers it, be it Peter or Paul, is always the same as that which Christ gave His disciples and which priests now offer:

[SacredHeartChurch]

Chrysostom "on the second Epistle to Timothy, 2, 4" (397 A.D.) cont.

The offering of today is in no way inferior to that which Christ offered, because it is not men who sanctify the offering of today; it is the same Christ who sanctified His own. For just as the words which God spoke are the very same as those which the priest now speaks, so too the oblation is the very same.

[billjkahn]

Hopefully they will come to realize that the True Mass is the Traditional Latin Mass. No matter how they say it in the new mass, it will remain a Protestantized version. The Latin Mass brought about our Saints and Holy People. Because it had only male altar boys, which gave us holy priets and because they new the meaning of the word "Sacrifice" of the Mass. The new church calls it a "gathering" a banquet table", a "celebration"..but not a SACRIFICE, of which it is!

[GloriousTrinity]

In full communion with Rome there are several different rites which do not and never have followed the Tridentine Mass - Maronite's, Coptics etc

They are in full communion and their Mass is entirely valid.

The earliest saints would not have had the Tridentine Mass - it was only inforced as the norm in the western Church in 1570 in response to the Council of Trent.

In regards to Mass being referred to as a sacrifice - every priest I have come across in the Novus Ordo has called it a sacrifice.

[SacredHeartChurch]

Well put. In fact if the poster "billjkahn" will watch the series we just posted on the mass he will hear Fr. Liam talk in depth about how the mass is a sacrifice.

[MrsMcCullough86]

How do you explain that the Apocrypha contains fabulous statements which not only contradict the "canonical" scriptures but themselves. For example, in the two Books of Maccabees, Antiochus Epiphanes is made to die three different deaths in three different places?

[spicante]

A very solemn Mass...Its very saddening though many priests abused the Ordinary Mass, and many Catholics today are very freaked out when they hear about the Tridentine Mass, some even don't know that.

[nikos261175]

Laudatur Jesus Christus!

I am very pleased on seeing this video. The Holy Eucharist is the essense of the Church, is the very heart of our faith that GOD IS WITH US "EMMANUEL". What a pity that protestants don't have true epispopasy (without apostolic succession)and true Eucharist. Only the Eastern (Orthodox) and the Western (Roman Catholic) have TRUE EUCHARIST which is "the communion of the Body & the Blood of Christ"

[jayboi83]

Anglican and Old Catholic Bishops, among others have been consecrated in Apostolic Succession preserving the Historic EpisCopate. There was never a break in succession from the Roman Bishops to these protestant Bishops. And, How are both RC and Orthodox Eucharists valid if they aren't in communion with each other? TRUE Eucharist indeed. A TRUE Eucharist is a THANKSGIVING (definition of Eucharist) that would allow all to COMMUNE as followers of Christ and exclude NO ONE from Christ's table.

[statementz]

The Anglican orders are NOT valid and Rome decreed that years ago.

[kiwichristian2009]

@statementz What does rome have to do with anything? I trust in God and God alone, not the antichrist rcc.

[Button36]
