Can you tell where the
Catholic Jesus is in these pictures? See that little white circle in the
middle of the sunbursts? That is a cracker. Catholics call it Jesus or the
"holy"
Eucharist. They
eat their Jesus. But before they eat him, they have to bow down in front of
this gold thing that holds their Jesus and worship him. The gold thing is called
a monstrance. But before they bow down in front of the monstrance (graven image)
with their Jesus (idol) in it, they like to parade him through the streets and
"adore" him in their solemn processions. You see, their Jesus can't walk. He has
to be borne about by men. THIS is the Catholic Jesus that we write about
here at Jesus is Lord--he is plainly not the Jesus of the Bible.
You don't believe that they actually worship and "adore" this thing called the Eucharist? Look at what pope John Paul II (a.k.a. Karol Joseph Wojtyla--his real name) said about the Eucharist in his 1980 Encyclical Letter on the Mystery and Worship of the Eucharist--
"Adoration of Christ in this Sacrament of love must also find expression in various forms of Eucharistic devotion: personal prayer before the Blessed Sacrament [the Eucharist], hours of adoration, periods of exposition - short, prolonged and annual (Forty Hours) - Eucharistic benediction, Eucharistic processions, Eucharistic Congresses."
The mass is the center of Catholicism and the Eucharist (that little round wafer above) is the center of the mass.
"...[E]ucharistic worship is the center and goal of all sacramental life."
--Karol Wojtyla, aka pope John Paul II
February 24, 1980
The Eucharist has been referred to as the Catholic "wafer god". I think that is an appropriate name for it. Without eating their Jesus, the Eucharist, Catholics believe they can't go to heaven. Their Jesus, the Eucharist, is also called "The Sacrifice" and "The Victim" (see above encyclical for examples). You see, they don't believe that the work of Jesus Christ was finished on the cross--He is supposed to be a perpetual victim always getting sacrificed over and over again. Dying over and over and over.
That's why you continually see them with dead Jesus' on crosses in their churches and homes--just hanging there, dead. My Jesus is not the "Eternal Victim", He is the Eternal Lord of Lords and King of Kings! Jesus told me in His word that His ONE time sacrifice is finished, completed, over. The Lord Jesus Christ is back in heaven where He came from waiting on His enemies to be made His footstool, not hopping up to enter a piece of bread. The mythical Eucharist is just another man-made tradition.
What else did Karol say?
"The encouragement and deepening of the Eucharistic [cracker] worship are proofs of that authentic renewal...Jesus waits for us in this sacrament of love..."
Many Catholics say that I don't understand Catholicism BUT NOT ONE will deny that they consider that cracker Jesus! NOT ONE WILL DENY that they fall down in front of images like this as well as statues, relics, paintings, and other images. NOT ONE will say that the ONE TIME sacrifice of Jesus Christ is enough to save your soul. I have told no lies on the Catholic religion on this site and I have no misunderstanding. Just go to some of their websites--you'll see what I'm saying is true. Get into a conversation with one and ask them about these things--you'll see they're true. Compare their encyclicals, decretals, and catechism to the Bible and see if you don't find contradictory documents. You don't have to take my word for it.
Catholics tell me that "the Catholic Church is the only Church that was given the authority to interpret sacred scripture and to teach on matters of faith and morals without error." Mmm, this is a pretty big claim. I have some questions for you, gentle reader:
[1] Look at the picture above one more time. Would you call that Eucharist cracker an image? Let me help you. An image is, according to Webster's,
im-age (im'ij) n. an imitation or representation of a person or thing, drawn, painted, photographed, etc.; esp., a statue; a sculpted figure used as an idol.
The person is Jesus, the idol is the Eucharist cracker and surrounding monstrance. "But," a Catholic would say to me, "we don't worship idols, we worship Jesus." Well, let's look at Webster's again for the definition of an idol:
i-dol (i'dl) n. an image of a god, used as an object or instrument of worship. [Didn't Karol say to worship the Eucharist?]; any object of ardent or excessive devotion or admiration [Didn't Karol say, "Eucharistic DEVOTION"?]
I like the following definition best which is also found in Webster's New World Dictionary (1982):
an impostor!
[2] Do you think that images like this monstrance and Eucharist are what Moses was warning about when he said:
Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the LORD your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which the LORD thy God hath forbidden thee. (Deuteronomy 4:23)
[3] The above passage says that God had forbidden the people to make a graven image. Where is this at in the Bible? Maybe Exodus 20:4-5?
Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.
[4] What you just read was the SECOND of the ten commandments. Is it any wonder why the Catholic religion deletes it? Is it not apparent to you?
God HATES images. ANY KIND OF IMAGE:
"Neither shalt thou set thee up any image; which the LORD thy GOD hateth." -Deut. 16:22
A Catholic heathen wrote this in response to the article you're reading:
"THE HOST [Eucharist cracker] IS NOT AN IMAGE OF GOD,
BUT GOD HIMSELF!!!!!!!!"
'nough said right there. He's telling the world that a cracker
is able to contain God
and that the God of the universe will enter it at the COMMAND of a priest.
Blasphemy, idolatry, disrespect, and cannibalism supreme.
The Catholic religion is no more Christian than any other cult...David Koresh, Jehovah Witnesses, Mormonism, Catholicism--no difference. Invariably someone will tell me that I hate Catholics. "Anti-Catholic" is the term they are using now. But judge for yourself: is telling the truth hate? Is telling a child, "2+2=4 not 7" hate? Nay, rather it is correction so that the person will have a right understanding. Catholic reader, get out of that sacramental system of man-made traditions that will guarantee you nothing but hellfire. Repent of your sins, believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shalt be saved. The Bible says so.

Catholicism is a lie of the devil. If I didn't sincerely care about people, then I wouldn't take the time to WARN you. The Catholic religion is all a bunch of Satanic lies based upon traditions and ridiculous manipulations of the Word of God. I plead with you as a friend, obey the Bible by turning to the Lord Jesus Christ in faith and forsaking the Mother of Harlots. The Great Whore of the Catholic Church will take you to hell with them if you're foolish enough to follow them. Don't do it. Salvation is NOT found in a religion, but in a Person--the Lord Jesus Christ! You need Christianity friend, NOT churchianity.

"He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me. Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men. For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition." -Mark 7:6-9
