. The Last Supper was The First Catholic Communion!
Christians spend a lot of time reading St. Paul. It is easy to see why. His writing is brilliant! An intelligent person will spend years reading St. Paul and learn more every day.

Protestants rarely ask Question 1: “Was St. Paul a Catholic priest and Bishop?”
Answer: He had to have been! How else could he have truthfully taught what appears in 1 Corinthians 10:16? “This chalice that we drink, is it not The Blood of Christ? This bread that we break, is it not The Body of Christ?”
~
Question 2: “Who is the ‘we’ to whom St. Paul refers?”
Answer: That “we” can only refer to the First Catholic Bishops, priests, and Catholics. They ate and drank The Body and Blood of Jesus Christ at every Catholic Mass since The Last Supper!
~
Question 3: “Why is that so important?”
Answer: Jesus Christ repeated One Teaching 14 times! “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.” He could not give us That Holy Food today if He did not provide His Catholic priests with The Power to change bread and wine into His Body and Blood!
~
Question 4: “Where did Jesus Christ say that in The Bible?”
Answer: Jesus told us that twelve times in the last half of John, 6. He repeated it twice more at The Last Supper.
~
The smartest Protestants ask Question 5! “How do ‘bread’ and ‘wine’ become The Body and Blood of Jesus Christ?”
Answer: The Son of God gave His Catholic priests the power to preside over The Miracle of Transubstantiation. At every Catholic Mass for the past 2,000 years, bread and wine have become The Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.
~
Question 6: “Many Catholics receive only The Body in the form of the Consecrated Host. Are they supposed to receive both His Body and His Blood”?
Answer: We receive Both by receiving Either. Catholics understand the simple fact that Willful Protestants avoid: there is no body without blood and no blood without a body.
~
Question 7: “What if I choose to reject His Body and His Blood?”
Answer: Then, you cannot have His life in you!
