A Question To Protestants Regarding The Eucharist

[stewstew03]

I thought you raised an interesting perspective regarding science as opposed to miracles.

Would you agree that miracles are for unbelievers and not necessarily for believers?

Science has to obey the creation laws, and the natural laws of creation follow the divine order of creation. Science comes to the knowledge of what already exists and follows the divine order as the first Adam, who was given the divine order to give God’s created creatures a name. Many times when science discovers from created elements to cure a human or animal disease is never short of a miracle.

According to the scriptures we are justified by faith not by the works of the law. This faith was attested by the Apostles, saints and martyrs from the first century who witnessed the resurrection. Did you see the miraculous resurrection of Jesus Christ? Yet most non-catholic christians believe today in the resurrection, but never witnessed it. Does not the resurrection of Jesus justify our faith?

In regards to the validly acclaimed miracles of the Eucharist there are too many to expound upon here. It is not a question of science or those who reject miracles of the Eucharist. God allows miracles to bring those lacking in faith, called by God into a more profound faith.

Jesus said it best; “If you don’t believe in me…, believe in the works I do…” (John 10:37-38)

When Jesus cured the blind man, he did not cure all blind men. Yet this one blind man gave witness and testimony in faith in Jesus Christ.

Peace be with you

Great points… virgin birth? Miraculous. God created this world and sent His son to die for humanity? Miraculous.

From the link:

I think Lutherans tend to think little about them, not that we think little of them. Denial of them would limit the power of God, yet we have little or no evidence from scripture that God would reveal His truth in this way. Further, we accept the Eucharist itself, every time it is celebrated, to be a miracle. I’m sure Catholics do, too.
In short, could they happen? An unequivocal maybe.

I agree with Jon here.

I may not scientifically agree with cheese Eucharistic miracles, but I do believe in (and am humbled by) the miracle of the faith they inspire.

I would never counter their claims, and find it much more profitable to be happy in their joy in the Lord.
