    How does it become the Body and the Blood?

    Bzzzt! Nice try, but thanks for playing :) George posed no question asking "does it", but "HOW does it..." - it presupposes that there is this change. Clearly you don't and consider this against "clear biblical teaching". I'd suggest a "rebuttal" thread if this is important to you to disprove.

    How does it become the Body and the Blood?

    How is "transform" understood in an Orthodox context? *Note - Capital "O". If the respondent is not at least knowledgeable on Orthodoxy I request you not respond

    Step counter apps

    Hi all - it's been warming up a bit here (subjective!) and I'm going walking again. I have an app that counts steps, calories, distance and all that jazz. What it doesn't do is account for the intensity of the walk, steps, stride, etc - just how many steps and calories based on the generic step...

    How does it become the Body and the Blood?

    Haven't even read the rest of the replies, but watch this: "Of course the Holy Spirit works through communion as he brings the faithful together in spirit to remember the sacrifice Christ made for us, just as Christ said at the Supper!" Did I get it? (ETA: I'm not saying this DOESN"T happen -...

    How does it become the Body and the Blood?

    Talk about imagery... :O I'd be more inclined to believe Jesus was teaching about cannibalism (which I don't - so don't even go there)

    Posting questions

    This is really about the "mechanics" of making posts. If I start to respond to a post, then decide "no, forget it...", I don't see a way to "cancel" that. Whenever I go back to the thread, the post I was responding to will always show up.

    How does it become the Body and the Blood?

    In that case he can forgive and bring us remembrance without ANYTHING AT ALL. And, for our benefit, he does in his grace and mercy. All we do, we do for the sake of Christ who redeemed us, EVEN partaking of the bread and wine. It truly is a remembrance as you've said. But if it is that, and only...

    Health and workplace bureaucracies

    Update - I've been put on medical leave from my job :( I was informed not by a meeting with anyone, not by a call from my manager or coordinator, not even a call from disability management (DM), but by email! :mad: I have some idea why this came about, which I'll keep confidential, but there...

    CoronaVirus

    I think reasonable caution is warranted, however panic responses are not. In Washington state it appears there had been cases that hadn't been found out about for a week or so that are coming to light now. What happened? An absolute shopping frenzy. Masks being sold out, bottled water (are the...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    We have an independent place in town that's pretty good. They have a second level that used to have comfy couches and chairs to hang out. The last time I was there they got rid of them and replaced them with "retro" (i.e. metal) dining chairs and wobbly tables. They're still good for a chai...

    Joker

    I've seen the film three times now. I bought the DVD and it'll probably be watched several times. Each time I see things in the character that are intriguing. To me, it's more a case study of mental health, trauma, and a man living in a world that doesn't much care. The 'Joker' persona is almost...

    Health and workplace bureaucracies

    Just an update. My Dr. has backed the recommendation of no driving during the course of business. That's impacted me the most as I'm not able to get to the communities my team serves. I've been given tasks that keep me busy and use my skills, though, just not in a way I'd prefer. I may request a...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    It's starting to get that way, but old habits die hard. The hospital where I work has a cafe that brews bagged Starbucks, but it's the most vile coffee I've ever tasted. Rot-gut stuff for sure.

    Organ Donor Christian thing to do?

    If yes, why? I've struggled with this.

    What’s Your Righteousness Level?

    Righteousness isn't a "level" such that we can keep it on our own. As we have the righteousness of God through faith in Christ (c.f. Phillipians 3:8-10), we have a righteousness that is immeasurable. I think all we can do with our finite and feeble minds is to only meditate on the sheer...

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 8

    Coffee in Starbucks. It was okay until the most raucous music started. They HAVE to know how bad this is. Still not over... If I hear some guy wailing "POW-AH!... POW-AH!... POW-AH!..." any more I'm going to cut the pow-ah... :ROFLMAO:

    Super Bowl 2020

    I was hopeful that Green Bay would be there, but figured they were a long shot. San Fran was too much. KC will give them a bigger challenge. I'd love to see KC make it
