the cup of blessing which we bless, is it not a participation in the blood of Christ?

And to return to the point that brought me to this thread (post 25), writing in the early 100’s, Justin Martyr had no hesitance in declaring the consumption of the Blood of Christ in the services of the ancient church.

Where is there ANY disputation of this until the 16th century?

Does the blood participate with you??? I wasn't aware that blood was that active...

Now if you were to say you (spiritually) participated in the death of Jesus which resulted in the shed blood, that would make sense...But participate in the blood??? Not so much...
