❤🙏 Fr Mike , thank you for speaking this truth & helping our young ones undedstand this!!🙏❤
u made me believe in the real presence ❤
If you’re struggling with your faith read “The Miracle Ship”. Also just put God first. Before family and everything else and watch your life turn around. God bless.
So funny and spiritually helpful at the same time 😂😂
Jesus loves you
The Living Bread.
I’m gonna be disappointed if my boy doesn’t get canonized as a saint 😭
Amen
In His physical fleshly death is eternal life for those who believe in Him. The Eucharist is the symbolic manifestation of this belief. That’s how I’ve always understood it.
I corinthians 11:18-34 , Also if isnt clear, let's remember the reaction from the jews within these verses from john 6:
52. (...) "How can this man give us (his) flesh to eat?"
60. "(...)This saying is hard; who can accept it?"
Jesus would explain any parable to His apostles, but He was insistant, to the point of saying to them:
61. (...) "Does this shock you? 62. What if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
He is God, He said He is the bread of life, He want to give His grace directly, but we need to be clean, repentent.
Make too much sense after you reflect on the first letter to corinthians 11:18-34 a second time... why this respect towards a bread, said to be Body?
His grace is sufficient.
Sufficient for what? Might I add that if Jesus commands you to do something will you not do it? HIS GRACE works in you when you abide in Him
@marialepore4581 this is a great point Maria. Sufficient for what??? Love fr. Mike!! Such a good teacher!
If only that was the only passage in the Bible.
Yeah, his grace is sufficient. No one argues with that. Only the Lord can choose who joins him in eternal life. But at the same time why wouldn’t you utilize the gifts given by God and the church Jesus established? So yeah your faith alone might be “enough” to get saved, but why wouldn’t you strive to live a life of good works to help not only better yourself but also please our Lord. Faith and good works are one and the same.
I would prefer a NKJV or NASB (not the McArthur) but an ESV would be okay too. Thanks to all who donated these beautiful Bible. And thanks Tim.

Melchizedek offers bread and wine
Where does he say that he will turn man made bread into flesh?
That was a while before the cross, why didn’t anyone try to eat his flesh while it was still on the earth?
Where does it say that he’ll come to the Alter in “humble obedience” to the priest as said by John O’Brian, and approved by the church.
Paul said that whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup you show Christ’s death until he returns. Shouldn’t Paul have said that you show Christ is here?
Through searching the scriptures, I can’t find where any Christians believed that the bread and wine were the true flesh and blood of Christ.
Waooo you look like and artist.

John 6. Learn it, love it, and live it. Be catholic.
Just curious. Is he allowed to get married?
Never
@@pam7533 - why?
I don't get it mof. I'm not the only threat now. I'm not the only one who stopped the apocolypse, I've done my part, and now loads of people are doing it. It ended the moment I did my part; there was no more that threat should have got to me. Its done, the movement has happened, they're too late to stop it, it's now underway. I dont understand why Jesus doesn't just end this! They did a ritual to stop me imagining Heaven, any of us. They're too late, but because we've only ever lived somewhat connec5ed ti thr apocolypse, yknow some of this reasoning us not going to change quickly. So WHAT! I suffered so much because you didn't do anything, because God didn't do anything, because the pol8ce didn't di anything. I dint get it! What do I have to do to make them stop making me suffer?
I still don't go so far as to accept full on transubstantiation, but as a person of Baptist heritage, I think an excellent (and likely correct) case can be made for belief in the real spiritual presence.
What a waste of faith ! ! !
But it is true. Check out the Eucharistic Miracles
Gross misinterpretation of v53-v58 because it is taken out of context of the verses preceding-v33 through v51. Praise be to Jesus!
Then he later shows them its unleavened bread and wine. At the Passover which is a symbolic dinner for remembrance. Moses offered unleavened bread at the temples for a symbol of faith. It sounded disgusting at first because he was testing their faith.
He wasn’t speaking symbolically he was referring to being God …stop it!
He was referring to the kingdom of God
he is the “word” of God
“for the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.”
Romans 14:17
“Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would have been fighting, that I might not be delivered over to the Jews. But my kingdom is not from the world.””
John 18:36
@@michellerodriguez4717 Nah, Jesus is NOT there…
And why would I want to trap people? 😂
You believe what man tells you over the word of God.
“You must be born again to even see the kingdom of God”
@create773 You should read the whole thing, though, and not just puck it sentences here and there.
@create773 the challenge is to sit in front of Jesus and tell him he's not there..
@@LauraBeeDannon not a challenge at all I tell him right now because he’s not there, in what you call the Eucharist;
he lives in me!
I don’t have to go through a human to have access to him, the cross did that, through the shed perfect blood of Jesus I have access to the Father!
Sorry, I grew up Catholic and there’s nothing you can’t tell me to convince me otherwise, I used to believe what you believe because it’s what they told me.
You never receive him when you take the wafer, you’ll try and try and never reach him on your own …and that in itself opens the door to a spirit of condemnation that you’ll never be good enough.
You may feel him on the outside because he loves you and longs for you to invite him in. And you should!That, keeps you living the way you feel but never experiencing the true Lord of Lords. I do pray Catholics could see this.
“You must be born again” John 3:1-5
Get Free!
@@LauraBeeDannon you know I do 😂 but you can have the last word, means nothing against the truth.
Jesus is basically McDonalds on sandals 😮 that’s probably the least reverent thing I’ve ever heard a Christian say about Jesus
IT'S A JOKE
Jesus has the best sense of humor, I'm sure He 😅
First rule of public speaking, “Know your audience.” He knows his audience-I believe he’s speaking to a crowd of college kids … they’re laughing and listening.
Were it a crowd of old folks like me, I doubt he would have used that joke to keep the audience’s attention.
Jesus has a sense of humour. I was helped by a suicide prevention society. So I bought a lottery ticket and said I’d give them it all. I forgot about the ticket and remembered about it after the draw. Before I went and looked at the results a voice in my head said “no matter what you give everything to the charity”. In my head I though if I win big I keep a small amount to buy a flat but give everything else away. Anyway. The thought of came and I agreed. I give it all away no matter what. I won.

God has a sense of humour.
@Michael-pw2td It's funny when catholics try to claim ownership of the Bible and tell Christians to practice things God calls abominations.
Nobody ever ate Jesus or drank his blood…. Nobody ever…. It is only symbolic
Go to the last supper in the New Testament and tell me what Christ himself said. Did Christ say this is a symbol or did he say “This is”.
Please read your bible. Go to what Christ said at the last supper. Did Christ tell his disciples that the should Take,eat this is a symbol or did he say “Take,Eat for this IS”.
@@missyblu4983Thats not really a closed case argument for your position though. Simply because the wording can be read literally, doesn’t mean Jesus *meant* it literally. This is coming from the context of the fact most of His statements were symbolic towards a spiritual reality. In this case, the bread and wine calling towards His crucifixion that would occur the following day. The eucharist would mean nothing without the reality of the crucifixion, i.e why some claim it symbolic, because symbols point towards actual realities, they are not the reality themselves.
@@ricoparadiso some things yes they were parables. However there were other things that he said that did not need understanding.
Ask the early church fathers that brotha
That’s blasphemy, read the whole context, Jesus said, eating the bread is coming to him and drinking his blood is believing in him. This teaching is heresy
You see I do believe that and I’ve had arguments of if it’s the literal presence of Jesus. But I stumbled upon Eucharistic Miracles and thus sealed my faith and understanding that the Eucharist is a literal. To call it blasphemy and heresy is quite a stretch tbh.
@@antokaknee I’m no here to attack anyone, having a respectful and peaceful conversation. The issue, this person didn’t read the whole chapter, when Jesus said, eat my body and drink my blood, he was saying, eat his flesh is coming to him and drink his blood is believing in him. I have one question, when Jesus said few hours before his death, this is my body ( the bread) this is my blood ( wine ) did he drink and eat his own body ? In the Jews tradition of Passover, they had to drink the wine and eat the bread, if we gonna take it literally. Jesus ate is own flesh and drink is own blood.
@@antokaknee I call blasphemy and heresy bc it’s impossible that the human body of Christ is everywhere, the body of Christ is in heaven it can’t be in heaven and earth ( bread ) simultaneously. Otherwise the human body of Christ is no longer human, is divine, which contradict the hypostatic union of Christ, human nature and divine nature
@@MarvinAlvarez-fe4fl I see and understand your point you made because it does make logical sense when you put it that way. And yes I am also here to have a conversation.
In regards to your first comment, I'd like to challenge you on the interpretation of John 6, because upon reading the whole thing, the Jews assumed the exact same position as you have, 'How can Jesus give us his flesh for us to eat?' And Jesus doubles down by saying "Truly, truly / Verily verily," (depending on translation) and he reiterates that, "unless you eat the flesh from the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life within you." Yes I do agree there is symbolism to this phrase since he did say in the beginning and it also connecting to the Last Supper and his Crucifixion , but then again there is so much more to it since Jesus does not back from his own claim and even turns to his Apostles saying, "Will you not leave too?" even when many of his disciples left upon their assumption of him literally eating his flesh.
Thats the thing of why I believe the Eucharist is the literal Presence of Jesus, because for 1, he said so himself, and two he doubles down on this claim and challenges his followers if they will leave too like the many Jews that departed him from that day assuming that he gives his literal flesh and blood. Thats my overall quick take on this chapter which is what I am challenging you on.
@@MarvinAlvarez-fe4fl In regards to your second reply, I'd like to first start off by saying nothing is impossible with God so theologically speaking it can be, but I understand this is treading the line of Modalism and heresy I do realize that and people of the past have vastly discussed this too, please look at the Vatican 2 discussion where they did discuss the Eucharist topic in heavy debate as well, if you are willing to.
Anyways, the Catholic Church teaches that the Eucharist is the 'presence' of God (who is both human and divine), this is where the well known term transubstantiation is used, because yes in mass they use the wafer and wine, while the material may be the same, the essence of it changes into the presence of God for us to eat and drink. Saint Thomas Aquinas, does a much better job of explaining this so please look it up if you are ever so willing.
I do understand your standpoint and I am not here to invalidate it because I did have that standpoint for when discerning my faith, I am merely here to challenge you in your understanding and see if it stands up, biblically, historically, and spiritually. Of course take all my words with a grain of salt since I am a sinner just like you and bound to make mistake.
As always, God Bless you and may he bring truth and grace to our lives and our deaths.
"Man will not live on bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." Jesus
Good luck arguing against that.
Bible literally can not have any controdictions. That means Jesus is either a liar or communion is symbolic.
The fact that Christ said not to live on bread alone doesn’t take away from John 6.
Take care.
@@luisaz8990 did Jesus eat his one flesh and drink his own blood? Which mean the human of Christ was present in the bread and simultaneously eating his body ? Can we attribute omnipresent what only God in his divine nature is ? I’m serious asking ?
@@MarvinAlvarez-fe4fl I don’t know what to tell you there. I wouldn’t overthink it. I just know that Christ’s words from scripture can be trusted.
@@luisaz8990 i agree but let’s not to misinterpret the scripture
@@MarvinAlvarez-fe4fl I can agree with that. I think that when in doubt of what scripture is really saying in certain parts, that we can refer to what the church has to say, as well as call on the Holy Spirit to illuminate our minds and perspectives. That’s how I feel, but I respect you regardless if you have a different point of view.
He's kind of annoying. Trying to hard to be liked
HOW WOULD YOU SAY IT?. WOULD YOU BE ABLE TO SPEAK TO THAT MANY PEOPLE AND ABOUT GOD? I DOUBT THAT
He is likeable, you should definitely take notes
Bro you have the Buddha as your pfp. I think you have bigger things to worry about than how this priests keeps a crowd engaged
If you’ve got nothing nice to say, then don’t say anything at all. 🙂
Jesus got a Wikipedia page and his bday not on Christmas Day😂😂😂😂
It's when the Nativity of the Lord is celebrated, Christ's Mass..aka Christmas is a celebration of his birth during the cold harsh winter when people are reminded of the Hope of the world.
Jesus was born on Christmas Day
