If you were to stand in front of Jesus in the 1st century, shook His hand, listened to Him speak, have dinner with Him, would He look like God to you or simply a man? He’s BOTH God and man, right? But He has all the appearances of a man yet He is also 100% God. As a man, He gets cut He bleeds. Yet this is the one, who in the beginning spoke and all came into being.

If Jesus can speak and all that is comes into existence, how difficult then is it for Him to become a human… a man. How difficult then is it for Him to make bread and wine into His body and blood, sacramentally speaking through the actions of His priests?

Especially when He says, that’s what happens, and that has been faithfully passed on for 2000 years.

But what you’re saying is exactly what consubstantiation means. It becomes the body and blood, while remaining bread and wine.
 
Resolve the issues you have problems with. Otherwise you won’t be at peace with it.
Don’t hurry, read and pray.

May God bless and keep you. May God’s face shine on you. May God be kind to you and give you peace.

actually it is not.

Consubstantiation
Transubstantiation this is from a larger article of “Real Presence”. Scroll up the page and read from the beginning.

As is the case in Church history, when a belief is challenged, that’s when a belief gets formally defined.
