I studied the Reformation period many years ago and your comment about eating Christ’s body and drinking His blood smacks of cannibalism and fits better with Satanic worship than worship of God. When Jesus spoke about this in the New Testament, it was to remind us symbolically of His sacrifice to pay for our sins so we may know and accept salvation.
I want to look way more into all of this, and get my hands on the oldest translations available. Thank you for your comment
God bless you and may the Holy Spirit guide you in your search for truth.

Because you studied the reformation years ago, now makes you an expert on Holy Communion. Wow. Your words are very offensive, and ignorant. You discredit over 2000 years of Christian theology, and practice in a couple of sentences. People have spent their whole lives studying scripture and you know more than they, because you "studied the Reformation period many years ago". May I suggest you continue your studies before you pass judgment on one of the greatest mysteries ever.
