Catholic Eucharist Caused Deathbed Meltdown | Lessons in Grace From the ICU - 3 · The Foreign Saint's Podcast

• 0:00
  Dying well, crossing the finish line and conquering the.
• 0:04
  Beast of your day. These are all things that I.
• 0:07
  Desire for myself my. Wife, my kids and everyone else
• 0:10
  that I minister. To because Jesus via his gospel
• 0:14
  trains us. For the day when it's our.
• 0:16
  Turn to cross that. Finish line, Conquer the.
• 0:19
  Beast and die well, but I had a Catholic patient on her deathbed
• 0:24
  this past week and I saw. None of those things in her.
• 0:28
  What she showed me was that Catholic doctrine robs a person
• 0:32
  of the ability to die. Well, because.
• 0:35
  When push came to. Shove.
• 0:36
  She was not trusting in Jesus alone.
• 0:40
  She was trusting in. Her works and her warped view of
• 0:44
  the Eucharist. I'm St.
• 0:47
  Kay, and you're listening to foreign Saints or I'm.
• 0:49
  Doing all that one man can to keep Christianity unique in this
• 0:53
  world by reviving the hearts. Of those who are called to die
• 0:57
  daily. So what happened?
• 1:05
  Well, I'm doing my. Rounds in a step.
• 1:07
  Down ICU, given respiratory meds and.
• 1:10
  Therapies and assessments to the patients.
• 1:13
  That are there and in this particular interaction, the
• 1:17
  patient in question. For this episode refused to
• 1:21
  take. Medications from me, which is.
• 1:23
  Fine, but when I. Asked her.
• 1:25
  Why she refused? She said that she was going to
• 1:28
  see Jesus, so I spoke with her for a bit.
• 1:32
  To determine her mental ability to make decisions.
• 1:36
  And you know if I determine? She was in her.
• 1:39
  Right mind, my plan was to go to the primary nurse and ask about
• 1:43
  the patient having a. Hospice consult, if that.
• 1:46
  Wasn't in the plan already, but in the course of this.
• 1:50
  Conversation where I'm assessing.
• 1:52
  Mental capacity, she asked me if I.
• 1:54
  Was a Christian, I said. Yeah, I am.
• 1:58
  But then she asked me another question, a follow up question
• 2:01
  that filled me with dread. Are you a?
• 2:06
  Catholic Christian aside, real. Heavy and I said no, ma'am, I'm
• 2:12
  not. Why did that?
• 2:14
  Question fill me with dread, people have asked me.
• 2:19
  Do you believe that Catholics are saved?
• 2:21
  Do you believe that Catholics are Christians?
• 2:24
  And my. Answer is that it depends on the
• 2:26
  Catholic the. Reason I say that.
• 2:28
  Is because the chance of a Catholic being Christian goes.
• 2:34
  Down the more. Official Catholic doctrine.
• 2:38
  They know, understand, and. Accept for this.
• 2:42
  Woman to recognize and highlight the distinction between a
• 2:46
  Christian and. Catholic herself.
• 2:48
  Suggested to me that. She drinks deeply.
• 2:51
  From this well. Of Catholic doctrine, she
• 2:54
  starts. Demanding to her two.
• 2:56
  Relatives that are at the bedside to get the host out of
• 2:59
  her. Home and not tell the church and
• 3:01
  all this. Other stuff now the relatives
• 3:03
  are they're more concerned over the fact that they just heard
• 3:06
  her say that. She's giving up and wants to
• 3:08
  die. The patient.
• 3:10
  The lady then refocuses on me and asks me multiple times if I
• 3:15
  know how important the. Host is, I say to her.
• 3:17
  Yes. Yes, ma'am, I know and I would.
• 3:19
  Love to talk theology with you, I really would, but I just.
• 3:23
  Want to make? Sure.
• 3:24
  First, that this desire you're expressing is.
• 3:27
  Coming from your right mind. What is he talking about with
• 3:31
  this host? What is he talking?
• 3:33
  About well, based on what she was emphatically demanding her
• 3:38
  family members to do and not do. IE get the host out of my.
• 3:42
  Home. It's the body and blood of.
• 3:44
  Christ. Don't let the church know about
• 3:46
  this. We can, reasonably.
• 3:48
  Deduce that she has the consecrated bread.
• 3:51
  And wine in her home. Somehow.
• 3:54
  And for those that don't know, she committed a big no no in the
• 3:58
  Catholic Church. If that is true, because.
• 4:02
  According to the Vatican, the. Act of.
• 4:04
  Taking and keeping. The elements of.
• 4:07
  Communion in your home is what they call a.
• 4:09
  Delicta graviora AKA. A more grave crime, specifically
• 4:15
  a violation. In the celebration of the
• 4:18
  sacraments, now what you're. Seeing on your screen right now.
• 4:21
  Is the code of. Canon law all.
• 4:24
  Right, the code of Catholic. Canon law and as we.
• 4:27
  Scroll through here. This is a staggering.
• 4:30
  Amount of teaching all right, you can just see the number of
• 4:33
  canons piling UP294330431607 right, for a grand total of at
• 4:42
  least 1700 and. 56. Canons on Doctrine and practice
• 4:47
  and this. Everything you're seeing that
• 4:49
  I'm scrolling now is in addition.
• 4:52
  To the 66. Books of Scripture in addition
• 4:56
  to the. Apocrypha that they add.
• 4:57
  On and by the way all. Of this that you're.
• 5:01
  Seeing can be added to on top of at.
• 5:04
  Any time because of the fact. They take church tradition.
• 5:07
  To be as equally. Canon and.
• 5:09
  Authoritative as the scripture themself.
• 5:12
  OK, this is a ridiculous. Amount of.
• 5:16
  Teaching and theology. It brings to mind Matthew
• 5:20
  chapter 23 verse. 4 where Jesus indicts the Pharisees by saying
• 5:24
  they tie up heavy loads that are.
• 5:27
  Hard to carry and put them on people.
• 5:29
  'S shoulders, but they. Themselves aren't willing to
• 5:32
  lift a finger to move them. The Catholic Church.
• 5:35
  Does not want to lift the. Finger to share the true gospel
• 5:39
  that would. Move these burdens according.
• 5:43
  To the code of. Canon Law Book 4, Part 1.
• 5:47
  Title 3. Chapter 2.
• 5:49
  Canon 934, subsection 1.1. All this is Canon, by the way.
• 5:55
  The Most Holy Eucharist must. Be reserved in the.
• 6:00
  Cathedral Church or its. Equivalent in every parish,
• 6:05
  church and in a. Church or oratory?
• 6:07
  Connected to the house. Of a religious institute or
• 6:10
  Society of Apostolic life. This right here.
• 6:15
  Gets explained. There is further.
• 6:18
  Explanation and clarification in another.
• 6:21
  Book. On Catholic Canon law, The
• 6:24
  Redemptionist. Sacramento on certain.
• 6:28
  Matters to be observed or to be. Avoided regarding the most.
• 6:32
  Holy Eucharist, all right, This is a book that further
• 6:37
  clarifies. Canon law on the Eucharist and
• 6:40
  things concerning it. OK, so we are going to be going
• 6:43
  to the Redemptionist sacramentum.
• 6:46
  Chapter 6 section. One subsections 131 and 1:30.
• 6:51
  Two OK people so. Subsection 131 says.
• 6:56
  Apart. From the prescriptions of Canon
• 6:58
  934, subsection one, Which? We looked at before it is
• 7:02
  forbidden to reserve the blessed.
• 7:04
  Sacrament in a place. That is not subject.
• 7:06
  In a secure way. To the authority of the diocese
• 7:10
  and Bishop, or where there's. Danger of profanation where?
• 7:13
  Such is the case the diocese and Bishop.
• 7:16
  Should immediately revoke any permission for reservation of.
• 7:19
  The Eucharist. That may already have been
• 7:21
  granted. So all of that.
• 7:24
  Translates to the bread and the wine for a communion cannot.
• 7:28
  Be in a place. That is not subject in a secure
• 7:33
  way. To the authority of the diocesan
• 7:36
  Bishop, right? Why is this?
• 7:40
  Important subsection 130. 2A Further clarification.
• 7:45
  No one may carry the most. Holy Eucharist to.
• 7:48
  His or her home or. To.
• 7:51
  Any. Other place.
• 7:53
  Contrary to the norm of law. It should also be.
• 7:58
  Borne in mind that removing or retaining the consecrated
• 8:01
  species. For a sacrilegious purpose.
• 8:03
  Or casting them away are Grevoria.
• 8:06
  Delicta, the absolution of which is reserved.
• 8:09
  To the Congregation for the Doctrine of.
• 8:12
  The faith, All right? What does this mean?
• 8:15
  No one can. Carry the bread.
• 8:17
  Or the wine for communion to his or her home, or to any other
• 8:20
  place contrary to the norm of law.
• 8:22
  But I want you to notice. The way that that is worded
• 8:25
  right, the way that that's worded to his or her.
• 8:28
  Home or any other? Place.
• 8:32
  Contrary to the norm of law, all right, That wording to me means.
• 8:38
  That the code of. Canon law that the Redemptionist
• 8:41
  sacramentum is clarifying is assuming that a personal house
• 8:47
  is an obvious off limits place to take communion.
• 8:51
  OK, this is all important because if communion is
• 8:56
  happening in a place not controlled.
• 8:59
  By the Catholic Church, what does?
• 9:02
  That mean it means that someone is teaching doctrine that they
• 9:06
  don't have control over. And this is one of my core.
• 9:10
  Issues with the with Catholicism if Jesus is the.
• 9:15
  Door and the. Gate of the Sheep.
• 9:17
  Then that means my group and myself cannot be the door
• 9:22
  anymore. Reminds me of this verse.
• 9:24
  From Jesus Matthew chapter. 23 verse 13 Woe to you.
• 9:27
  Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, you shut the door of
• 9:31
  the. Kingdom of Heaven in.
• 9:32
  People's faces. For you don't go in, and you
• 9:36
  don't allow those entering to go in.
• 9:40
  OK this. Is what Catholicism does right?
• 9:43
  They don't. Abide by the true gospel, and
• 9:47
  they throw up all these hindrances to shut the door of
• 9:50
  the. Kingdom in.
• 9:51
  People's faces, so people that would otherwise.
• 9:54
  Go in, aren't going to go in. Because of the fact that the
• 9:57
  Catholic Church wants to play gatekeeper with all of their
• 10:00
  additions and. False doctrines of demons.
• 10:03
  OK, this brings me to another Catholic dilemma.
• 10:08
  Here are the horns of the dilemma one the Code of Canon
• 10:12
  Law and the Redemptionist Sacramentum.
• 10:15
  Say that the bread. And Wine of Communion cannot.
• 10:19
  Be carried to the. Home of a person that this is
• 10:22
  contrary to the norm of law this.
• 10:24
  Is a delictive gravy or this is a.
• 10:26
  Grave crime, a more grave crime, right?
• 10:30
  And yet .2 Paul in his letter to Philemon.
• 10:34
  Says that the church. Meets in Philemon's house, which
• 10:39
  means that the communion elements were taken to and eaten
• 10:45
  there unless you want to. Say that the.
• 10:47
  Church took communion somewhere other than where they were
• 10:51
  meeting, but that. Just sounds silly.
• 10:53
  To me additionally, .3 and Mark chapter 14.
• 10:58
  Jesus. And.
• 10:59
  The 12 took the. First Communion in someone's.
• 11:05
  House as well. In someone's.
• 11:08
  House with a guest. Room and everything.
• 11:11
  So why on God's green earth? Does the code of.
• 11:14
  Canon law contradict the practice and allowance of the
• 11:17
  Messiah and the apostle Paul if the code of Canon law and the
• 11:21
  redemption of sacramentum's. Edicts are really Apostolic.
• 11:26
  In origin and nature because they aren't.
• 11:29
  Atari, you're making this up. A true Catholic would know about
• 11:33
  absolution and the sacrament. Of penance.
• 11:38
  Correct the code of. Canon Law Book 4, Part 1.
• 11:42
  Title four Chapter. One Canon 9. 60 says that
• 11:46
  physical. Or moral impossibility excuses
• 11:50
  from confession of this type in. Such a case reconciliation.
• 11:55
  Can be obtained by other means by which a person can be
• 12:00
  forgiven of grave sin. However, the Code of Canon Law
• 12:04
  of Book 4, Part 1 title. Four chapter. 2 Canon 9. 65 says
• 12:10
  that a priest. Alone is the minister.
• 12:14
  Of the. Sacrament of Penance so the
• 12:17
  woman is dependent upon the. Clergy for her salvation.
• 12:23
  Let me say that again, the woman would be dependent upon the.
• 12:27
  Clergy for her salvation. I would be scared.
• 12:30
  Too, if my eternal soul was in the hands of a man and not the
• 12:38
  Son of Man, I would be kind of freaked out.
• 12:43
  Too. All right, Canon 981.
• 12:46
  Says that the confessor. The one who's being.
• 12:49
  Confessed to is to impose salutary.
• 12:53
  And suitable penances in accord with the quality and number of
• 12:57
  sins, taking into account the condition of the penitent and
• 13:01
  the penitent is. Obliged to.
• 13:03
  Fulfill these personally, so the penitent, the one doing the
• 13:07
  repentance in this case. This lady patient who's
• 13:12
  realizing? That she did something, that she
• 13:14
  committed a. Delicta graviora by.
• 13:17
  Having the bread and the wine in her home, in a place that's not.
• 13:23
  Authorized by the Catholic Church to have these things,
• 13:26
  this grave. Sin this most grave crime, the
• 13:29
  fact that she knows she's committed it means she needs.
• 13:32
  To absolve herself. Through the sacrament of
• 13:36
  penance, but she's on her. Deathbed so she's worried.
• 13:40
  Will I be able to do? That she knows that she needs a
• 13:43
  priest and she also. Knows that the priest is going
• 13:45
  to. Have to give her some kind of
• 13:47
  penance she's going to have to do, but in her situation, that's
• 13:50
  going to be kind of. Difficult to do.
• 13:52
  All right, according to Canon 981 The Penitent.
• 13:57
  Does have to pay? Penances in accordance to the
• 14:00
  quality and number of their sins.
• 14:02
  The priest determines this. According to the Magisterium's
• 14:06
  instructions, the other option you have.
• 14:08
  Would be to just believe the gospel and trust that Messiah's
• 14:13
  suffering is your penance, so there is none leftover for you
• 14:20
  to have to suffer and pay. But now let's hop into the
• 14:23
  Bible. To see what's really good
• 14:24
  because the book of Hebrews. Refutes Catholicism on.
• 14:30
  Their idea? Of.
• 14:33
  The Eucharist. Hebrews chapter. 9.
• 14:36
  Verses 24 to. 28. For.
• 14:38
  Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with hands, but into
• 14:43
  heaven. Itself so.
• 14:44
  That he might now appear in the presence of God.
• 14:47
  For us. He did not.
• 14:49
  Do this to offer. Himself many times.
• 14:52
  As the high. Priest enters the sanctuary.
• 14:54
  Yearly with the blood. Of another.
• 14:56
  Otherwise he would have. Had to suffer many times since
• 15:00
  the foundation of the world, but now he has appeared one time at
• 15:03
  the end of the. Ages for the removal.
• 15:05
  Of sin by the. Sacrifice of himself.
• 15:08
  And just as it is. Appointed.
• 15:10
  For people to die once and after this.
• 15:12
  Judgement. So also Christ.
• 15:15
  Having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a
• 15:18
  second time not to bear sin, but to bring.
• 15:21
  Salvation to those who. Are waiting for them.
• 15:28
  So what do we see? From this section of.
• 15:30
  Scripture. Well, a couple.
• 15:31
  Of Important things, verse 20. Five tells us straight up that
• 15:35
  Jesus. Did not enter heaven to offer
• 15:38
  himself many times. As the high priest used to do
• 15:42
  yearly with the blood. Of another.
• 15:45
  OK, because if he had. Gone to heaven to offer himself
• 15:49
  many times. He would have had to suffer, He
• 15:54
  would have had to suffer. And die many times as well since
• 15:58
  the foundation of the world. Why?
• 16:02
  Because a sacrifice is only. Presented in the immediate
• 16:05
  aftermath. Of its slaughter.
• 16:07
  Not long after, right? So when Roman Catholic.
• 16:11
  Theology wants to teach. You that you still want
• 16:13
  sacrifice but. There are many presentations.
• 16:16
  There are many RE presentations of that one sacrifice.
• 16:20
  That is not biblical. That is not.
• 16:22
  Biblical. The text is clear.
• 16:24
  Jesus. Offered himself one time.
• 16:27
  He did not enter heaven to offer himself.
• 16:31
  Many times, otherwise he would have had to.
• 16:34
  Suffer many times. So if Jesus only died once, it
• 16:38
  means he only presented. Himself as a sacrifice.
• 16:41
  Once. OK, it says right here that he
• 16:44
  appeared. One time for the.
• 16:46
  Removal. Of sins by the.
• 16:47
  Sacrifice of himself. OK, Christ was offered.
• 16:52
  Once to bear the sins of many in the same way that all people
• 16:57
  live once, die once, and then to face judgement.
• 16:59
  So too, Jesus Christ. Lived once, died once, and then
• 17:02
  went to heaven and his. Sacrifice, his offering was.
• 17:05
  Judged and it was found faithful and it was found sufficient.
• 17:09
  To bear the sins. Of many Amen and Amen.
• 17:14
  So we learn that Christ's sacrifice does not need to be
• 17:17
  represented by any priest, but we also.
• 17:20
  Learn in. Hebrews chapter. 10 verses 1 to
• 17:23
  4. That constant presentation of
• 17:26
  sacrifices actually magnifies guilt instead of erases it.
• 17:30
  Let's look at the text Hebrews. Chapter 1 verses one to four
• 17:34
  since the law has only a. Shadow of the Good.
• 17:37
  Things to come and not the reality.
• 17:39
  Itself of those. Things it can never.
• 17:41
  Perfect the worshippers by the same sacrifices they can
• 17:44
  continually offer year after year, otherwise wouldn't.
• 17:47
  They have stopped being offered. Since the worshippers purified.
• 17:52
  Once and for all, would no longer have any.
• 17:54
  Consciousness of sins, but in the sacrifices.
• 17:57
  There is a reminder of sins. Year after year, for it is
• 18:02
  impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away
• 18:06
  sins. OK, the Torah system, the Torah
• 18:10
  system of sacrifices, what does what does the author of Hebrews
• 18:15
  I believe to be Paul, What does Paul say here That that.
• 18:18
  System of sacrifices cannot. Perfect.
• 18:23
  The worshippers, right? Says it right here.
• 18:26
  It can never. Perfect the worshippers by the
• 18:28
  same sacrifices. They continually offer can't do
• 18:33
  it right and that's. Why the offerings were repeated?
• 18:39
  In the first place. All right, Paul is saying here
• 18:43
  in Hebrews that. If a lamb offering in the Torah
• 18:47
  under the law of. Moses was.
• 18:49
  Enough. They would not have offered any
• 18:52
  more. Because the worshippers would
• 18:54
  have been purified. And once and for all have no
• 18:59
  more consciousness of sins. So what do we learn from this
• 19:04
  section of? Scripture.
• 19:06
  Well, we learned that the notion of.
• 19:08
  Representing Christ's sacrifice. By.
• 19:12
  Paul's inspired logic. And not man's.
• 19:14
  Faulty logic would be. Insulting to God?
• 19:17
  Why? Because you're.
• 19:19
  Saying without saying it. That Jesus's.
• 19:21
  Blood is no more effective than the.
• 19:24
  Blood of a lowly. Animal in purifying the soul,
• 19:27
  which is why he must be. Represented what you're.
• 19:30
  Saying is that. Jesus's blood.
• 19:32
  Doesn't work the way. You said it would work, Father.
• 19:35
  You said that Jesus blood would work.
• 19:38
  But as a one. Time sacrifice as a.
• 19:41
  One time offering not needing to be presented again, but I.
• 19:45
  Disagree with you, Father? I think I understand how.
• 19:48
  Jesus, blood works. I think I understand your.
• 19:52
  Valuation of the blood. Of Christ over.
• 19:55
  And above you telling me how much you value.
• 19:58
  The blood of Christ and so. I'm going to.
• 20:00
  Re present his sacrifice to you. Instead of submit to your
• 20:05
  instructions in the new Torah of Messiah.
• 20:09
  That is your problem and that is your insult, Paul says in the
• 20:13
  section here that there. Was a reminder of sins in the.
• 20:17
  Sacrifices year after year, so. Coming.
• 20:21
  Back around, This is an amazing commentary by Paul, right?
• 20:26
  Praise be to God. Coming.
• 20:28
  Back around to sacrifice. Reminds you that even though you
• 20:32
  have a way to interact with your problem.
• 20:35
  In a way that's beneficial for you.
• 20:36
  You have not. Actually solved the.
• 20:38
  Problem. An analogy.
• 20:40
  I like to think of is how. Taking medicine for a chronic
• 20:43
  condition does not actually. Solve your chronic condition.
• 20:48
  It just massages. It it just deals.
• 20:50
  With it. But in dealing with it, it just
• 20:52
  reminds you how much pain and brokenness you're dealing with
• 20:56
  on the. Daily SO.
• 20:58
  Ironically representing Christ's.
• 21:01
  Sacrifice in the Catholic idea. According to.
• 21:05
  Paul's sanctified logic. Will not.
• 21:08
  Lead to assurance. But will undermine the idea.
• 21:11
  Of assurance as the idea of. Representing Christ's blood.
• 21:16
  You will only serve. To remind the.
• 21:18
  Worshipper that your. Sins are not.
• 21:20
  Actually. Truly.
• 21:20
  Purified once for all, it will reinforce the reminder.
• 21:24
  Of your sins week. After week, instead of what
• 21:27
  Communion is actually intended to do, remind you of the.
• 21:30
  Righteousness of Jesus He gifted to you.
• 21:32
  Apart from your works. Through his death and now
• 21:35
  lastly, a short. Meditation on the Point of
• 21:38
  Communion 3. Places you can go to for the
• 21:41
  institution of the Lord's Supper.
• 21:43
  Matthew. 26. 26 to 20. 8. Which is what you're you're
• 21:46
  seeing on your. Screen You can also go to Mark
• 21:48
  1422 to 24 and Luke 2215 to 20. If you actually do pop over to
• 21:54
  Luke. 2215 to 20 You find an interesting phrase in how in the
• 22:00
  formulary for communion here in Luke's Gospel.
• 22:03
  It says that the cup is. Not his blood.
• 22:07
  It's actually very interesting wording here in Luke 22.
• 22:11
  Let me show you but verse 20 in the same way.
• 22:15
  He also took the cup. After supper and said.
• 22:18
  This cup. Is the new covenant in my blood?
• 22:22
  Which is poured out for you. So it's actually interesting,
• 22:25
  right? The very specific.
• 22:27
  Wording that Roman. Catholic doctrine likes to get.
• 22:30
  Hung up on this wine is my blood this.
• 22:33
  Cup is my. Blood and that.
• 22:36
  Specific wording is what they is one of the justifications they
• 22:40
  use for the doctrine of transubstantiation.
• 22:42
  Is not even a. Consistently worded phrase.
• 22:46
  In the New Testament. Luke quotes.
• 22:49
  Jesus as saying this. Cup is the new.
• 22:52
  Covenant in my. Blood, right?
• 22:55
  And since. Catholics like to.
• 22:57
  Hang their hat. On the specific word formulary
• 23:01
  of this cup is. My blood, then.
• 23:05
  Logically, it would. Poke a hole in your.
• 23:07
  Theology, if I could find you a place, as I have, where the cup
• 23:11
  is identified as something. Other than the blood.
• 23:14
  But in this case. As the new covenant in his.
• 23:17
  Blood, the argument rests. On the cup and wine being
• 23:21
  called. Specifically, his blood.
• 23:24
  But not every formulary. Says it that way which?
• 23:26
  To me indicates the. Truth is that this is a symbolic
• 23:30
  or even a spiritual. Representation, not a literal 1
• 23:35
  and we have a way to. Fact Check this theology by
• 23:38
  checking with the church. Fathers, but I don't mean
• 23:40
  anybody that comes a couple centuries later.
• 23:42
  No, no, no, no, no. I'm talking about one of the.
• 23:45
  True church fathers the. Chosen Apostles of Messiah who
• 23:49
  are writing Holy Spirit inspired commentary on the oral.
• 23:54
  Teaching of Jesus and. The Tanakh that came.
• 23:57
  Before them. So what does Paul say?
• 24:00
  First Corinthians. 11 is what you want, but we're going to
• 24:03
  look at verses 23 to 20. 6 where Paul says the following for I
• 24:10
  received from the Lord, what I also.
• 24:12
  Passed on to you on the night when he was.
• 24:15
  Betrayed the Lord Jesus took. Bread, and when he had given
• 24:19
  thanks, broke it and said, this is my body, which.
• 24:22
  Is for you. Do this in.
• 24:24
  Remembrance of me in the same way also.
• 24:27
  He took the cup after supper and said this cup.
• 24:31
  Is the new covenant in my blood? Do.
• 24:35
  This as often as you drink it in remembrance of me for as.
• 24:39
  Often as you eat this bread and. Drink the cup you proclaim the
• 24:42
  Lord's. Death.
• 24:44
  Until he comes so Paul when he's.
• 24:47
  Quoting what Jesus said, Paul agrees with Luke's specific
• 24:54
  wording. And.
• 24:56
  Paul the Apostle Paul. Does not say.
• 25:00
  That the cup is Jesus's blood. He says the cup is the new.
• 25:03
  Covenant in his blood. That is what Paul quotes.
• 25:07
  Now, that's not me trying to argue that Matthew and Mark are
• 25:10
  wrong. That's not my point.
• 25:12
  My point is simply this. That the Catholic argument for
• 25:16
  transubstantiation mostly lies on a specific formulary of
• 25:21
  words, right, Because it says in the text in certain places this
• 25:27
  cup is my. Blood.
• 25:29
  Therefore, it must literally. Mean that OK if?
• 25:32
  That's true. And if we're being consistent?
• 25:34
  Then if I. Show you a place where it says
• 25:36
  that the cup is anything. Other than the blood, then that
• 25:39
  must mean that the cup is not the blood, right?
• 25:42
  That must mean that the. Cup is that other thing that
• 25:44
  that text? Is saying it is.
• 25:46
  If we're being consistent with this Transubstantius
• 25:50
  hermeneutic, that's if we were being consistent.
• 25:52
  But we're not being consistent. And why?
• 25:54
  Aren't we being consistent, Christian?
• 25:56
  You know the answer. To.
• 25:56
  Why? Because that's why.
• 25:59
  If we're having trouble understanding, we just got to.
• 26:01
  Ask one question bro. You don't see how that that's
• 26:05
  it, That's it. Those are the two questions that
• 26:08
  that's. The offense and defense.
• 26:10
  Of heresy right there, folks. So according to Paul, a church.
• 26:15
  Father that is more authoritative than anyone.
• 26:18
  A. Catholic could ever.
• 26:19
  Quote from later centuries. Says that.
• 26:22
  We are proclaiming the. Lord's death.
• 26:24
  Until he comes, Paul. Doesn't say that we're that
• 26:27
  we're participating. In any sort of a representation.
• 26:31
  Of the sacrifice he. Doesn't say that.
• 26:33
  No, we're proclaiming the Lord's death until.
• 26:35
  He comes, but here's the question.
• 26:36
  Proclaiming it to who we are. Proclaiming it.
• 26:40
  To ourselves. And to each other in the body.
• 26:45
  So that. We remember the New Covenant in
• 26:49
  his blood. Gifted us the forgiveness of our
• 26:52
  sins at a. Specific point in time in the
• 26:55
  past extending on into eternity future when we were initially
• 27:00
  saved this meal the. Bread.
• 27:04
  The Cup reminds. Us of A.
• 27:06
  Freedom that was gifted to us in.
• 27:10
  Christ Jesus, not a price that is still to be.
• 27:14
  Paid, not a. Price that is still to be paid
• 27:17
  if my Catholic patient. Had understood that then maybe?
• 27:23
  She would have had a lot more. Security coming to the.
• 27:26
  End. Or at least believing that she
• 27:28
  was coming to the end, right? This is why theology matters.
• 27:31
  Because when you have a theology that rests and works, you will
• 27:36
  either have what this lady had, complete hopelessness and fear.
• 27:42
  As you're relying on fickle men to do what they need to do.
• 27:46
  Or you will be resting in pride and arrogant instead of a.
• 27:51
  Calm. Humble.
• 27:53
  Trust in Jesus to save you, not because of what you did, not
• 27:58
  because of work done in righteousness, but because He's
• 28:02
  righteous, because He's right. All right, so until next time.
• 28:10
  Foreign Saints do something. For Jesus and go in.
• 28:15
  Peace.
