    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    You were taught by someone that communion is symbolic only. You did not see that word in scripture.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    No, it is the same one and only sacrifice. Don't limit God.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    And the original Passover was not just a symbol was it? How many symbols in scripture can you come up with that bring a warning from God concerning falling ill and dying? It would not be consistent with who God is to have a warning for something that is symbolic only.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Those are a lot of questions. Our site rules do not say that we must assume everyone is saved. But you have a tendency to assume Roman Catholics are not saved and CH considers that denomination to be a Christian one. I am saved by grace through faith in Jesus our Savior who died on the cross...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Another thought concerning re-sacrifice not being true... Jesus fed the crowd without having to go back and get more fish/bread because it was sufficient the first time his miracle happened. No one went without. Christ's death was sufficient and He gives us His body and blood without having to...

    Rome wasn't the only church that believed in the Real Presence and that has been pointed out to you a few times.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    There WAS unity in belief of the Real Presence until Zwingli turned against scripture and brought the symbolic only belief into the churches causing discord. To this day that discord exists. Maybe you should not believe what Zwingli taught since it's what is causing discord and isn't what the...

    Lutherans don't believe in re-sacrifice but nice tangent. Is still means is.

    the fruit of the Spirit

    Sometimes when people don't feel well they will come across in the manner you've written above.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    The Real Presence does not go against scripture so to answer your question, no. Now, there might be other traditions that do go against scripture and I might be against those.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    You're right, Josiah! We never read about arguing amongst the early church fathers concerning the Real Presence. That's because they didn't think it was purely symbolic. They knew it was HOLY Communion :)

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Here is a great quote from Luther and it's along the lines of how I see it when God said Let there be light, there was light. "When the living Christ comes into the midst of His gathered congregation today and says “This is My body” and “This is My blood,” it is not a matter that human...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    Seriously Snerfle, you haven't anything more to say about Holy Communion, do you? Some of us would like to continue talking about it so please don't think that we're purposely causing divisions by enjoying discussions of scripture.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    You're free to stop discussing Holy Communion at any time. Some of us would like to continue.

    If you understood the Lutheran position you wouldn't be asking those questions.

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    No. Tradition validates what Jesus said. This is my body. This is my blood. You chose to believe what Zwingli introduced and made popular symbolic view: He developed the symbolic view of the Eucharist. He denied the Catholic doctrine of transubstantiation and following Cornelius Henrici Hoen...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    There seems to be some inability for you to read what has been written in this thread. I didn't say I only had a thousand years but OVER a thousand. Ren's pdf file was not proof as I clearly showed since early pages into it actually proved that the early church believed the Lord's Supper was...

    COMMUNION: Does "is" mean "is?" Catholic, Lutheran, Evangelical

    I'm not desperate for anything. I just have over a thousand years of proof as my back up along with scripture. And again, you're thinking that transubstantiation is what people mean when they say Real Presence. How many times do you need to be corrected on that?
