Jesus is still hanging on the cross. (It is not finished)
If it is not finished a mediator is still needed.
That mediator is the priest.
Thus the need for purgatory.
Thus the need for works.
Thus no member of the RCC can say they are saved.
Since the are self proclaimed "church" nobody can question anything they say.
As a former member of the RCC I can tell you there is no life in that belief.

You despise the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. What you despise is biblical. John 6:
ReplyDelete53 Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them. 57 Just as the living Father sent me and I live because of the Father, so the one who feeds on me will live because of me.
Mr. Roman Catholic,
ReplyDeleteIn the passage you cite Jesus is speaking figuratively. At the last Supper, is he eating his own flesh and blood?
Try visiting my article on the Eucharist.
I don't despise what is biblical, rather unlike papists I actually the scripture in context.
It is Rome who despises Jesus by elevating Mary above him
If you were to put a man on a desert island with a gospel of John and ask him to say where the Lord's supper/communion/eucharist is found in it I'm absolutely sure chapter 6 would not feature in his answer.
