Catholics are Baptized. We go to Confession. We receive His Body and Blood. We are Confirmed. Many are called to Marriage. The especially blessed, to Religious Life. We pray to be blessed with The Last Rites before our soul goes to Judgment.
Every Catholic obeys Jesus’ frequent, emphatic command to receive Catholic Communion. He tells us, over a dozen times, “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”
Some people are so God-Fearing they become Catholic because there is no other way to obey His command “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.”
Since many go through life giving every appearance of being “alive” without receiving Communion, we know that Jesus is speaking of our soul that has “life” in it.
Are the souls of those who knowingly refuse to heed His instruction “If you do not eat My Body and drink My Blood you do not have life in you.” actually dead?
Catholic Fundamentalism suggests that souls without that Holy Food are in some sort of “hibernation” from which they may emerge resplendent at the first touch of His Actual Body and Blood.
When The Catholic Priest presides over the Transubstantiation of the bread and wine into The Body and Blood of Jesus, there is a great, invisible explosion of holiness in which Jesus, Himself, becomes present.
Billions of molecules of “Sanctified Shrapnel” burst forth! “Holy Molecules” explode from the Altar! The “holy molecules” go into their lungs and bloodstreams of all in The Sanctuary.
We must let our friends be aware of this. When they attend Catholic Mass and breath deeply at the Moment of Consecration, they may find His Blessing, like the Canaanite woman in Mt. 15:27.
She was rewarded for realizing, “Even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their master’s table.”
It helps, just being in a Catholic Church!
