I have been reading Scott Hahn’s book, “The Lamb’s Supper” and oh my goodness has it shed some light?

Has anybody ever heard a fellow protestant talk about the rapture or end times or even heard of the 'Left Behind" series.

Let me just give you a brief insite of what I have learned, and I totally recommend this book if you want to fall in love with our Lord again, especially in the ultimate prayer, “Mass”.

Keep in mind the first 11 Chapters is about the Liturgy of the Word, The last 11 Chapters is about the Liturgy of the Eucharist. I might be a few off on the scripture vs… but they are there…

Let me know what you think!

Liturgy of the word:
Rev 1:2 Blessed is the one who reads aloud and blessed are those who listen to this prophetic message and heed what is written in it, for the appointed time is near.

Priest with his vestible
Rev 1:12 wearing an ankle-length robe, with a gold sash around his chest

Incense during Mass
Rev 8:3 Another angel came and stood at the altar, 3 holding a gold censer. He was given a great quantity of incense to offer, along with the prayers of all the holy ones, on the gold altar that was before the throne.

Ending the Liturgy of the Word, Going to the LIturgy of the Eucharist
Rev 11:19 Then God’s temple in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant could be seen in the temple. There were flashes of lightning, rumblings, and peals of thunder, an earthquake, and a violent hailstorm.

Mary’s contribution by giving her Son Jesus Christ to us as the new covenant
Rev 12:1-2
A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman 2 clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was with child and wailed aloud in pain as she labored to give birth.

Celibacy of Priests:
Rev 14: 3 These are they who were not defiled with women; they are virgins 3 and these are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever he goes. They have been ransomed as the firstfruits of the human race for God and the Lamb.

Catholicity
Rev: 14:5 Then I saw another angel flying high overhead, with everlasting good news 6 to announce to those who dwell on earth, to every nation, tribe, tongue, and people.

Glory to God in the Highest (Song of Praise)
Rev 15:3-4
They were holding God’s harps, and they sang the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb: “Great and wonderful are your works, Lord God almighty. Just and true are your ways, O king of the nations. Who will not fear you, Lord, or glorify your name? For you alone are holy. All the nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.”

It is right to give him thanks and praise
Rev: 19:1
Alleluia! Salvation, glory, and might belong to our God, for true and just are his judgments.

Soul and Divinity Real Presence of Jesus in the Eucharist
Rev 2:17 ‘“Whoever has ears ought to hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the victor I shall give some of the hidden manna; I shall also give a white amulet upon which is inscribed a new name, which no one knows except the one who receives it.”’
 
scott hahn ROCKS!

here’s a link to some real audio scripture studies with scott hahn and jeff cavins - i haven’t listened to any yet (as i just googled and wanted to share), but if they’re anything like his books we should be in for a treat.

Thanks RyanL, I will be sure to go and do some more research. You have to understand I’m a 25 year old that just graduated from college 3 years ago and now study my faith more to understand why we do the things we do, and also be able to defend my faith from some protestants not all, that believe our Church is the Whore of Babylon.

I’ll be certain to look at those other material that you posted, I have a lot of reading to do!
 
i’m 27, and in a very similar boat. if you haven’t picked it up yet, i would recommend karl keating’s “catholicism vs. fundimentalism”. this will give you the basics for 90% of the arguments you hear against our faith - the other 10% can be found on this site!

peace be with you,
RyanL
 
oh, and btw, i grew up in tulsa and my dad now lives in okc as well…and i got him a copy of “the lamb’s supper” about a month ago…coincidence?😉

My dad just let me borrow his, he wouldn’t buy one for me 😦

Either way we are starting to share books!
 
I have read this book three times.

Is there a list of the Church Fathers’ works that teach the same ideas?

From what I can see, Dr. Hahn mentions that the early Church taught what he teaches. I believe him. I want the list of teaching for my own growth.

I beg for this list.

I don’t know of any particular list, and I am actually listening to his audio archives on this particular topic (IE Mass Heaven on Earth in Revelation).

**I am kind of dissapointed that the church went away from really hitting hard on these points in revelation, because that is our entire faith! I never wanted to read Revelation, now I am consumed with the book, and relating every peace to the mass and coorelating with a spiritual warfare. It has really gave me a profound and different way of looking at my faith, and it is awesome. Everytime I go to Mass, I prepare myself to enter Heaven. **

**If you run in or find out a listing, let me know, as I am desiring growth in our Faith that we share. **

God Bless!
Your Brother In Christ,
Artie Catalano
