    Expressing faith in words.

    Our Christian faith is sometimes hard to express in words because it is so deeply felt and so emotionally moving as well as intellectually profound. Sometimes simple songs express the elements that ordinary speech cannot express properly. Singing expresses emotion better than prose and what...

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    A simple affirmation of Catholic faith in song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08Wk9Z_6mvQ

    When are we going to get self-cleaning drains?

    My drains didn't self clean and it took about 1.5 hours to clear the roots that were encroaching from the sewer mains up through the "riser" to my drains. The cost is $239. That's quite a lot but I am glad to have working plumbing again.

    What are you listening to?

    I was listening to this song earlier today. In my parish we sing it sometimes during the rite of communion. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vrCN2sJpfvY

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 3

    It blocked up, it took a while, I first noticed some signs about 4 weeks ago, now it is very blocked and needs a plumber's attention. I am not sure of the cause. By the way I am in discord chat. :)

    So... What are YOU doing? - Part 3

    Coffee fixes many things - but not my plumbing. For that a plumber is needed. Hopefully he'll be here soon.

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    The wine for the drink offering had to come from somewhere. It was clearly in the tabernacle when it was offered there. It must have been in the tabernacle immediately before it was offered. Perhaps it was stored within the confines of the tabernacle all the time like it was in the temple.

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    I do not think that asserting that the Holy Eucharist is symbolic only and that the bread and wine (or grape juice) is just bread and just wine without any physical or any "real presence" that involves anything physical means that the people holding such views think that God is incapable of...

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    Are you confident of that? Exodus 29:37-40 NRSV 37 For seven days you shall make atonement for the altar, and consecrate it, and the altar shall be most holy; whatever touches the altar shall become holy. 38 Now this is what you shall offer on the altar: two lambs a year old regularly each...

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    I often think that people assume that they are "not interpreting just quoting the bible" without giving any serious consideration to why they accept a 66 (or 73) book bible as "the bible". They accept the bible used in their church, denomination, meeting because it has been given to them by...

    When are we going to get self-cleaning drains?

    Well, one's bodily excretions are how one's body self-cleans its insides. Pity the pipes haven't managed to evolve a similar mechanism that would expel their unwanted wastes into the sewer mains. Anyway I have the plumber coming out this afternoon to do the cleaning thing with their 'machine'...

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    I believe what Jesus says. If I have doubts I ask for wisdom confident that God will grant it. If I still doubt I remember that Jesus gives his life for me and to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iJtZaUHn_M0

    Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord?

    Let's get back to the thread's topic. Specifically Why can't the bread & wine be the body & blood of the Lord? Some appear to teach that the bread and wine of the holy Eucharist is just bread and wine (for many grape juice rather than wine) but why can't it be what Jesus said it is; namely that...

    Some thoughts on Easter

    Acts 10:34-43; Col 3:1-4;John 20:1-10. The greatest gift made by Christ to people of every time and place is that of his own life, of eternal life, of being his brothers. By mounting the wood of the cross and yielding himself to death by crucifixion, Christ descended into the very depths of...

    When are we going to get self-cleaning drains?

    It's the first time there's been a blockage in 18 years. I do not think it is due to tree roots but who knows? The plumber will find out.
