That is precisely your problem, the church over Scripture, thus consuming human flesh to gain life giving properties like pagans. And as even necessary for salvation, thus condemning all who do not assent to this unScriptural error. Even if they refuse to admit they must believe all such are lost.
Pure foolishness. Back to question #1. Christ used the word “Church” and question #2 who gets to authoritatively interpret Scripture?
Billy Graham? Al Sharpton? Jim Jones? Rev. Schuller, Martin Luther? Calvin? Wesley? AnaBaptists? Mormons? …ok I get the point anyone can find, choose, and pick their flavor and no wonder we have the mega churches of the prosperity gospel. This is the lunacy the one true Catholic Church has to contend with heretical faiths.
