The Sacrament
Where we ask the question:
"Do you smoke your God, Do you
cannibalize Him,
or do you Remember Him?"
The
Roman Catholic Take on it:
The Catholic Encyclopedia volume
4 p. 277, article: Consecration
"In
celebration of The Holy Mass, the bread and the
wine are changed (Added: Guess where the
magical spell, Hocus Pocus comes from? Yep, the
priest blesses the elements and speaks the "Holy
Enchantment" of "Hoc est corpus meus" and
presto-changeo, dinner is served!) into the
body and blood of Christ. It is called
Transubstantiation, for the Sacrament of the
Eucharist the substance of bread and wine do not
remain, but the entire substance of the bread is
changed into the body of Christ, and the entire
substance of the wine is changed into His blood,
the species or outwards semblance of bread and
wine remaining."
Now that's what
I call HUNGRY FOR GOD!!!
CARLOS
SANTANA's Toke on it:
"I got to see there was a lot of
people like myself who were smoking
pot. "Sacred Sacrament" as Bob
Marley would say and we opposed the
Vietnam War. And it felt really
encouraging to know that I wasn't
alone, that a lot of people, kindred
souls like myself, you know, we
didn't have to hide in alleys
anymore to do the sacrament. Just
like they drink wine at church every
Sunday, you know, it's the same
thing when you smoke a joint. It's
no different, man... We'd accepted a
lot of different teachings because I
was raised a Christian. And we have
moved beyond and through Buddhist
thought and Native American thought.
And we continue to grow and just try
to touch more of who we are inside,
what our essence is and why we're
here... Live your light and Jesus
will be cheering for you. He's no
bigger than us and we're not bigger
than him. We embody the same light.
And to me, if you live your light,
Jesus will give you a high five when
you get to the other side. Sometimes
take the time to ask yourself what
religion is God?"
Now that's what I
call HOLY SMOKE!!!
The Bible Take?
Good Old
Saint Paul has the answer on this one. He got angry watching the
Corinthian church turning the "Lord's Supper" or "Communion" from a
solemn act into a reason to party and get drunk. (1Cr 11:19-22) He
went on to explain the correct manner to partake.....
25% of the world population believe
they are eating the actual flesh, and drinking the actual blood of Jesus Christ.
Watch Pastor Joe Cortes of Faith Cometh
By Hearing ministries present the simple meaning and act of the communion. This
