Do you understand transubstantiation?
trans = transfer
substantiation = substance.
The substance of bread and wine is changed into the Body and Blood of Christ as Jesus did at the Last Supper when he said, “This is my Body.” “This is my Blood.”
Understand completely, But there is no transfer of substance whatsoever. So why call it that? Do you know what the Miracle is according to Catholic teaching..., the divine miracle is that it is does not change substance. It is a miracle that is stays a wafer according to Catholic teaching. Simply confounding, but necessary to fool the masses.
But...it’s not flesh, it’s not blood. Ever. It’s a wafer. It stays a wafer. Well, until digestion turns it into something else, but that’s not the point of “transubstantiation”.
