Yes, we know a symbol does not represent a symbol…Yes, but that significance lies in the reality that He gave His real body and His real (not symbolic) blood for our salvation.

Isn’t transubstantiation the transfiguration of His Eucharist?susanlo:![]()
I think the point of the transfiguration was to reveal who Jesus really was. He didnt “change” but always was like that, in the Spiritual world’s eys!Matthew 17:2 …His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light.First He looked like a typical man, and then He was illuminated. They were not hallucinating. This happened and was witnessed by all who were present to see. They were able to describe this miracle to be written about.
We dont need transfiguration of His Eucharist. We already believe it at His word.
Do you see that Jesus was already God, but that was unnoticed by carnal senses?
No. Transfiguration was an appearance. Transubstantiation is a vhange in what it truly is, apart from appearance.rcwitness:![]()

I am not understanding why the priest and your Mother had to be in private. If you had been able to take her to church you would have been able to witness her receiving.susanlo:![]()
So I was at my mothers house Easter Sunday …she is 90…whole family was there…my moms priest (Catholic)came by to minister communion to my mother…priest is very friendly…we chat a bit…see him often…knows our names…as he took my mother aside (to a more private room) to give her communion, I longed to go with them (I was unable to attend my church service), even for all of us to participate, but alas the division, though my mom and i still fellowship with scripture reading and prayer on Sundays…tough spot for the priest to be in…I wonder if he longs for more unity alsoThese 2 groups of Catholics could no longer fully accept one another and be in the same Communion.
This is what happened to Communion for Christianity in 1215. The fact that in Augustine’s time they readily accepted each other as Christians despite having different explanations on Communion, shows that both views were tolerated and accepted as orthodox.
Is there any other incidence of Transubstantiation that takes place in our world other than in your Eucharist?Wannano:![]()

No I understand that and accept it. It was a one time happening in history. I am asking about ongoing practice happening now in 2018.Wannano:![]()

Could you detect with science that Jesus was God?
Well, Jesus’ miracles were seen and perceived by those around Him. Merely touching the fringe of His garment allowed a woman to be healed. We don’t know if Jesus has the DNA of man or if he has different DNA. His appearance was that of a typical man, but what He was capable of doing far surpasses what any mere man could do.The Word became flesh
Could you detect with science that Jesus was God?
Not sure…perhaps also to hear confession, though he says"to give her communion"…I could ask also but feel restrained, by the separate understandings/rules.m not understanding why the priest and your Mother had to be in private. If you had been able to take her to church you would have been able to witness her receiving.
Of course Spirit/spirit can not be detected by senses, but flesh and blood can.Could you detect with science that Jesus was God?
Yes, perhaps they have talked about it, and me being protestant ends it I would think…i mean my mom might not feel comfortable either if i participated with different understanding, and would not want to put priest on the spot either, to bend the rulesFrom what you say, there should be no reason to be private. You should ask your mother.
Unless it is “hidden” from our senses so that it is not a sign of proof, but an act of faith and for faith.rcwitness:![]()

You missed my question.Actually you could refute my example by saying science could have detected a virgin conceiving.
But im not sure how the Virgin conceived…
Thanks. Did you see the Paul movie yet?About other examples of Transubstantiation?
No, I think its quite unique. The incarnation is the closest thing i can think of. But its still different.
