LORD'S DAY. <BR/><BR/>Question 80. What difference is there between the Lord's supper and the popish mass? <BR/><BR/>Answer. The Lord's supper testifies to us, that we have a full pardon of all sin [a] by the only sacrifice of Jesus Christ, which he himself has once accomplished on the cross; and, that we by the Holy Ghost are ingrafted [b] into Christ, who, according to his human nature is now not on earth, but in [c] heaven, at the right hand of God his Father, and will there [d] be worshipped by us: - but the mass teaches, that the living and dead have not the pardon of sins though the sufferings of Christ, unless Christ is also daily offered for them by the priests; and further, that Christ is bodily under the form of bread and wine, and therefore is to be worshipped in them; so that the mass, as bottom, is nothing else than a [e] denial of the one sacrifice and sufferings of Jesus Christ, and an accursed idolatry. <<<<<<<<<<Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14004998687318936202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28321606.post-1167409123918117522006-12-29T08:18:00.000-08:002006-12-29T08:18:00.000-08:00I was thinking of the Community of San Gregorio at...I was thinking of the Community of San Gregorio at about 6:30 PM EST on Christmas, wishing I could be participating in the breathtaking Midnight liturgy taking place at that very moment.
