We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

There is something radically wrong with dull and boring preachers. How can a man be dull when he is handling such themes? I would say that a ';dull preacher' is a contradiction in terms; if he is dull he is not a preacher. He may stand at the pulpit and talk, but he is certainly not a preacher. With the grand theme and message of the Bible dullness is impossible. This is the most interesting, the most thrilling, the most absorbing subject in the universe; and the idea that this can be presented in a dull manner makes me seriously doubt whether the men who are guilty of this dullness have ever really understood the doctrine they claim to believe, and which they advocate. We often betray ourselves by our manner.

REAL PRESENCE

BASIC R.C. BELIEF When the priest in the Mass, says the words of consecration (Hoc est corpus meum: this is my body) the Lord Jesus Christ becomes substantially present in the Host. When the Host is eaten in Communion, although Roman Catholics don’t believe Jesus is subject to digestive juices, as the wafer loses its accidental form the Real Presence of Christ ceases to be present in the person.

In a Roman Catholic Church bulletin (6/30/57) the priest wrote: “The Church tells us that Jesus remains in our bodies 15 minutes after we receive Holy Communion: we should not leave the Church until Our Lord is no longer with us.”
