Just because something is not stated directly doesn't mean it's unture. But anyway, believe whatever you want to believe brother. God bless.no, the word is λογος and Law is תּורה
Yes. Next question please? Jesus made himself abundantly clear that the Blessed Sacrament is his body.Do you believe it? Is what you receive at communion what Jesus said it is. Is it "my body" - specifically, is it Jesus' body? Or do you think it "means" something else?
That reminds me when my college professor referred to it as "breaking bones" if it physically changed when I took a Sacrament course. And yes, we are CatholicYes, though I don't believe in the sacrament we are chewing up bits and pieces of Christ's body. That isn't accepted by any Protestant, and I doubt that's what educated Catholics believe, either.

There isn't a next really; the point of the OP is to ask people to take Jesus at his word.Next question please?
Agreed- I was just being rhetoricalThere isn't a next really; the point of the OP is to ask people to take Jesus at his word.
Yes. He said it, I believe it. End of.Do you believe it? Is what you receive at communion what Jesus said it is. Is it "my body" - specifically, is it Jesus' body? Or do you think it "means" something else?

I take that to mean "No".I believe Jesus is the gate, John 10:7 "Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.", but do not believe Jesus is literal a gate.
It's believed by this Protestant.
Not to ramble on, but don't SOME Anglicans have wide views regarding the Eucharist? Correct me if I'm wrong.It's believed by this Protestant.
Sure. There are some alleged Anglicans who don't believe in God at all. Why they persist in infesting the church is beyond me, but they're there. But Anglican doctrine is that the elements of the Euchariist are the Body and Blood of Christ.Not to ramble on, but don't SOME Anglicans have wide views regarding the Eucharist? Correct me if I'm wrong.
Not a clue what that's supposed to mean.The Lutheran confessions reject Caparnaitic feasting. We don't receive parts of Christ ,we receive the whole Christ.
In noun form it is a derogatory term applied to people who believe in transsubstantiationNot a clue what that's supposed to mean.

Capernaite (plural Capernaites)
- (Christianity, derogatory, archaic) A believer in transubstantiation.
Many people believe it is a symbol of Christ's body but I believe it IS literally his body. How is this possible? It is a mystery The Church says. I have to say that I feel a gush of energy, have an uplifted spirit, and jit feels like my vision is more clear after I am given this blessing. At least until I get back to the car. Then I just have a feeling of satisfaction like God is with me as I leave. By the time I get home, I just have a general feeling of being uplifted like I did the right thing or I have the Holy Spirit living in my heart and lungs.Do you believe it? Is what you receive at communion what Jesus said it is. Is it "my body" - specifically, is it Jesus' body? Or do you think it "means" something else?
Maybe you don't but I do. It's a spiritual body and a mystery but it is the body of Christ. I guess I kind of feel sorry for you that you neither get the true body or blood of Christ from God but a "symbol."That means we don't eat pieces of Christ's body in the Lord's Supper.
Ok. That was my understanding as well.Sure. There are some alleged Anglicans who don't believe in God at all. Why they persist in infesting the church is beyond me, but they're there. But Anglican doctrine is that the elements of the Euchariist are the Body and Blood of Christ.
Yes. 100%. Whole Person. Body and Blood means whole person. Not that we eat his actual face or toes or anythingCatholics don't believe that people eat pieces of Christ's body, either. Jesus isn't missing any fingers or toes as a result of the Eucharist. Capernaitic feasting is rejected by every Christian denomination.
