The Catholic God

In addressing priests at the Worldwide Retreat for Priests in October 1984, in Paul VI Audience Hall, Vatican City, Mother Teresa explains--


"At the word of a priest, that little piece of bread
becomes the body of Christ
...
Then you give this bread to us,
so that we too might live and become holy..."



eucharist

"...eucharistic [i.e., cracker] worship is the center and goal of all sacramental life."

"The encouragement and deepening of the Eucharistic [cracker] worship are proofs of that authentic renewal...Jesus waits for us in this sacrament of love..."

"Adoration of Christ in this Sacrament of love must also find expression in various forms of Eucharistic [cracker] devotion: personal prayer before the Blessed Sacrament [the cracker], hours of adoration, periods of exposition - short, prolonged and annual (Forty Hours) - Eucharistic [cracker] benediction, Eucharistic [cracker] processions, Eucharistic [cracker] Congresses."

--Karol Wojtyla, aka pope John Paul II

DOMINICAE CENAE ON THE MYSTERY AND WORSHIP OF THE EUCHARIST
February 24, 1980

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 explained that I wanted to give them [Yemen government] sisters, but the trouble was that, without a priest, without Jesus going with them, our sisters couldn't go anywhere... I was so struck with the thought that ONLY when the priest is there can we have altar and our tabernacle and OUR JESUS. Only the priest can PUT Jesus there for us...Jesus wants to go there, but we cannot bring him unless you first give him to us."

--Mother Teresa

" you [priests] are called 'another Christ.' "

--MOTHER TERESA


For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

Matthew 24:5

I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies. Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts. Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.

Amos 5:21
