And that's what we call a middle man.

I go to the Lord Himself I don't use a middle man.
On the contrary, that is what we call obeying the Lord. The Lord used men to teach yes? They were His middle men so He can likewise use them to Forgive sins as He wanted. Your missing that filling I was speaking of in the other thread so of course you misinterpretate this verse:

"As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.’ And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said to them, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained’"

You say that one has to be catholic to partake of the body and blood.
But God says.

1Co 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me.
1Co 11:25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
1Co 11:26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do show the Lord's death till he come.
1Co 11:27 Wherefore whosoever shall eat this bread, and drink this cup of the Lord, unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord.
1Co 11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of that bread, and drink of that cup.
1Co 11:29 For he that eateth and drinketh unworthily, eateth and drinketh damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's body.
1Co 11:30 For this cause many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
1Co 11:31 For if we would judge ourselves, we should not be judged.
Um, He was talking with His 12 Apostles. The core of the Church. His Priests who will teach and pass on to their Successors. Surely you cannot think the Lord includes ones who believe a different doctrine to be in Communion with He and His Church now can you.

all well and good, but I still find that against what Scripture REALLY teaches. BUT that is MY opinion, and I won't shove it on anyone else.
You 'Are' shoving it in our face by taking Our Communion. It's like you saying "I'm doing this and toooo bad if you disagree". If you can't respect us then have some for your Catholic mother next time you even dwell on the thought of going up there to recieve the Holy Eucharist.

DO you read? or just assume? DID I SAY I partook? NO...I didn't. Cause I was DEMANDED, NOT so nicely by ANYONE there not to. People said I couldn't take it cause of 'sin' in my life?? How bout the haterade they drank before speaking that way to someone THEY DIDN'T know. Anyway, that beside the point, I DID NOT partake NOR think of it.

AND you are WRONG in how you think of ME taking communion with MY Lord. I don't give a rip what your church 'teaches'...the BIBLE says I CAN take it and I DO! Thank you.

A different doctrine from who, the catholic church?

I go to the Lord Himself I don't use a middle man.

That's why I don't go to church. Or read the Bible. I get all I need, revelations and Scripture, direct from God.

Hebrews 10:25 (New International Version)


25Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

Hebrews 10:25 (Amplified Bible)

http://www.biblegateway.com/versions/?action=getVersionInfo&vid=45

25Not forsaking or neglecting to assemble together [as believers], as is the habit of some people, but admonishing (warning, urging, and encouraging) one another, and all the more faithfully as you see the day approaching.

Hebrews 10:25 (Contemporary English Version)

http://www.biblegateway.com/versions/?action=getVersionInfo&vid=46

25Some people have gotten out of the habit of meeting for worship, but we must not do that. We should keep on encouraging each other, especially since you know that the day of the Lord's coming is getting closer.

Obviously you didnt read last night the way you gave a post a life of it's own by your ongoing tantrums and all because of how you missed the intended message that was first given.

How bout the haterade they drank before speaking that way to someone THEY DIDN'T know.
LOL!! Hatred.

I had no clue that caring about whether the Lords' Body and Blood will be consumed by a non believer thus creating Sacrilege was out of hate and not love for the Lord. You really need to stop thinking of yourself.

AND you are WRONG in how you think of ME taking communion with MY Lord. I don't give a rip what your church 'teaches'...the BIBLE says I CAN take it and I DO! Thank you.
You can take your bread and grape juice anytime you like. I insist as a matter of fact. Just stay away from the Real Deal. ;)

Gee, that post really surprised me. I never saw it coming.

Were the Apostles taking the place of God when they performed Miracles? Nor do our Priests in Confession. He works through them.

There is a difference between what the apostles did as well as people that are alive today do and to quote someone else that posted here taking the place of God.

There are many that God uses to do His work. Many that God uses to perform miracles through. I have even been used by God in healing someone.

But there is a difference between being used by God and taking the place of God.

It isn't how it sounds. Literally taking the place of God, one would have to be God. Impossible. However allowing Him to use you as a physical substitute to Convey His Sacraments is an entirely different matter.

Just as God did the miracles through Peter and others, God does the forgiving through the priests. Nobody takes the place of anybody else. They are simply vessels for the Lord.

I understand. But 'peace' should first stick in the mind and heart of the person who's doing the throwing. :)

You know.. the whole 'let there be peace on earth, and let it begin with me' ..kind of thing. ^_^

I'm at peace. It is in me.

If it wasnt I would tell you that there is a difference between being converted toChrist and being converted to your church.

Peace

And that is the point. It is what you as an individual find the Scriptures really teach.

When the RCC says that the Eucharist is the soul, body and divinity of Christ. It isn't what one inviduals find the the Scripture really teach but what has been taught from now 2000yrs and can be historically traced back to early Christianity and handed down through the ages through the Church. Not one individual.

Peace

Perhaps so. But telling someone they say 'dim witted things' isn't being "peaceful".

And signing your post with a "peace" message afterwards is being contradictory.
