    LCMS Eucharist

    That’s the word I’ve heard used many times. And it is making something new. It’s making ordinary bread and wine into Jesus and His blood.

    LCMS Eucharist

    Actually, I’ve decided to stay put. Just want to know if my new beliefs are true. Why is that so hard to understand?

    LCMS Eucharist

    What do you mean there is no confect? The host and wine are bread and wine before the priest or pastor says the words of institution, then they become Jesus’ body and blood.

    Then how do Lutheran pastors confect the Eucharist? By the power of the Holy Spirit?

    I was raised Catholic and heard this stuff all my life. I just want to know how someone who isn’t an ordained priest has the power to turn bread and wine into Jesus and his blood?

    LCMS Eucharist

    No, my MAIN point was the priests claim that Jesus can‘t be in the Eucharist unless it’s confected by a validly ordained priest.
