I'm sorry bro, pero it sounded man gud nga nagbinuang ra ka sa Host...
fyi lng bro, sa mga priests na I have suggested this one, some of them have dismissed it as a form of jest, but who knows really.. to make people want to take the communion, they could have altered the recipe a little bit so people are encouraged to eat the body of Christ.. medyo marketing na ni dapita..
I guess they could do that. Pero para nako dili man siguro na meant to be tasty jud or delicious. At the very least it's palatable. If we want to enjoy great food, we can go to a restaurant na lang.
yeah, but still this is already bordering on belief.. i know the ceremony quite well, thank you.
but again, its still symbolism, because if it was really Christ's flesh, that bread would not be white anymore, but would be something brown if cooked or if uncooked, would appear soft and meaty.
Bro, they would say that Christ's body as the Host has the appearance of a bread, but in substance it is really Christ's flesh. It would be great if we can ask some priests to explain that to us.
Let's just stick to reality and set theology aside coz I don't like arguing with you about the theological subject.. in my experience, that cannot be argued upon because that is not subject to argument in the first place. its either you accept the belief or not. but if you actually claim that it is Christ's flesh in REALITY, hmmm.. imo pud na bro. we are all entitled to our own reality man pud ba. ask any priest about the REALITY na Christ's flesh ba jud na.. most of them would respond na its still symbolism.
Yes, it would be great bro if we could ask several priests about this...
kung Christ flesh jud na, murag ma-cannibalism na ta ana gud..
Hinuon... I guess we can look at it that way. Personally, I want to look at it differently. I want to look at it as God's fulfillment of his promise in the book of Isaiah to put his law within our hearts. God after all is the Logos, the Word who became flesh, the Law who became flesh.
yeah, i certainly hope so too..
Ato niya na i-suggest sa mga taga-simbahan hehe...
