Invoking some secluded monk will no do for an argument or an answer.Oh, it is not one secluded monk, there are many. And they have daily Mass for the public on their beautiful grounds in Ireland, too. If you want to measure zeal, you must read the works of those Catholics who have it. Ignoring they exist does nothing for your ability to learn. It is the fervent Catholic who brings others to the faith. What are you afraid of?
I assume, had He really meant the Apostles to eat His flesh, that He certainly was capable of stripping off pieces of Himself and handing them out (and healing Himself afterward).
He did not.
Certainly not of them, as it is because i am learned that i know that even zeal does not make something right, and which is not what consistutes Scriptural regeneration.
Salvation in the NT church did not begin with being formally justified by interior holiness attained via sprinkling morally incognizant (often) souls in recognition of proxy faith, then gaining spiritual life by consuming human flesh and blood, administered by a man distinctively titled "priest ," or praying to the departed , with a demigoddess mother , and (usually) ending up in "purgatory" to atone for sins and become good enough to enter Heaven.
Meanwhile it is RCs who are not to objectively examine the Scriptures in order to ascertain the veracity of official RC doctrine. What are you afraid of?
