It has already been explained to you that Christ is not "sacrificed over and over and over and over again." It has been explained to you that your account of what WE believe is incorrect.

Believe what you want, but do not misrepresent what Catholics believe.

You're fine when you tell me what you believe.

Do NOT misrepresent to me what I believe.

That does not show respect.

A Roman Catholic priest says otherwise.

Plus another Roman Catholic on another thread said the Mass was the SAME sacrifice as the Cross....the SAME.

Do NOT misrepresent to me what I believe.

All I'm doing is repeating what an ordained Roman Catholic priest has said. If anyone should know it should be him. Your issue is with him....not me.

I'll post what we're talking about for the casual reader to decide.

When the priest pronounces the tremendous words of consecration, he reaches up into the heavens, brings Christ down from His throne, and places Him upon our altar to be offered up again as the Victim for the sins of man. It is a power greater than that of monarchs and emperors: it is greater than that of saints and angels, greater than that of Seraphim and Cherubim. Indeed it is greater even than the power of the Virgin Mary. While the Blessed Virgin was the human agency by which Christ became incarnate a single time, the priest brings Christ down from heaven, and renders Him present on our altar as the eternal Victim for the sins of man—not once but a thousand times! The priest speaks and lo! Christ, the eternal and omnipotent God, bows His head in humble obedience to the priest’s command.

John O' Brien, Roman Catholic Priest in the Faith of Millions.
