CHAPTER 1: 

THE MEANING OF UNLEAVENED BREAD

The right understanding of the Scriptural Eucharist was instituted by the Lord Christ.  The right understanding of the Eucharist is His divine presence.  What is right understanding of His divine presence?  It is really and actually symbolized in the Eucharist.  If bread alone cannot alone symbolize the Eucharist, what could really and actually picture the spotless Lamb of God?  The spotless Lamb of God is authentically without anti-biblical prejudice pictured by unleavened bread. 

Unleavened bread best pictures the sinless purity of the impeccability of the Beard.  Ordinary bread fails to picture Jesus Christ because it is of poor quality.  The unleavened beard is the Eucharist.  It is this way by sole precedence of the written Word.  Without the written word the Eucharist is merely bread.  I am not denying a right understanding of the Eucharist in a proper remembrance of the sole propitiatory and expiatory sacrifice of the Incarnate Lamb of God at His Cross. 

Remembrance without the infallible Word is like remembering the life of a dead person.  The reason why we can trust the divine and substantial presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist is because of the bodily risen Christ.  The Word in its self-authentication is provable by the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ. 

If the infallible Word was not enough, how did God speak creation into existence?  Isn’t the infallible Word enough to speak things into existence that were not there?  Why does God assumed His own existence?  Is it blind presumption?  God’s Word is self-authenticating, because He is without the counsel of His creation.   That is God does not need counsel to tell Him He exists.   God does not question His divine presence in the Eucharist.  Christ is divinely present (not materially present) by the Father’s design through the special presence of the Spirit.

Romanists will baselessly question the special divine presence of Christ.  They will say it is merely His omnipresence.  This is a like telling a half-truth without regard to real matter at hand.  The omnipresence of Christ is surely everywhere, but image if you tried to explain to Moses in Old Testament history that He encountered the same presence of Christ in the burning bush?  Would it be the same presence that you and I experience with regard to God’s omnipresence?  Wouldn’t we say it is an immediate and special and divine presence of Christ in a substantial manner by God?  Surely we would! 

The divine presence of Christ before Moses is like the Eucharist!  It is Christ in His substantial presence.  He is present by virtue of the infallible Word.  That’s what makes it special beyond anything else.  It does not mean we should pray to the Eucharist.  No one should pray to anything or anyone but the Holy One in Holy Three and the Holy Three in Holy One.  There are those who pray to the Eucharist in Romanism.  It is worship of the creation of fallen man.  They have made an idol to worship.  It has deceived billions of professing Roman Catholics.  It’s like worshipping consecrated light but it is saying it is Jesus.  Jesus said after all He was the Light of the World.  He also said He was the Door.  It’s like transforming a door of wood into worshipping the door as Jesus. 

I have seen Roman priests place the beard into the wine.  Among the secrecy of Romanists priests it is supposed to be a more powerful way to encounter Jesus Christ.  There is also a feeling that such a thing could be transformed in hell to escape its residence.  There is no way that it makes Jesus more encounterable.  The problem is that Rome thinks it helps with forgiveness of sin.  The Roman Eucharist replaces the definite Cross.  There is unrestrained evil in hell.  Every false doctrine is present for civil adherence.  The Roman Eucharist is likely the chief doctrine there.  It is there in thought but there no relief to the pains of hell. 

If there was food in hell it would be like extra flame of God turning fallen rebels over to an extent that defies earthly experience.  It could not vanish the flames of hell but only increase them.  It brings such fury of God that I suppose the very existence of the Roman Eucharist is like eating drops of kindling flames prepared for the darkness of the abyss.   One could only find the Roman Eucharist in the abyss because it never redeems.  Hell is real spiritual flames that go beyond physical flames.  The extent of punishment is endless terror and torment. 

Do you want to really know about the Roman Eucharist?  There is an immediate presence of God in heaven unto eternal mercy for the exaltation of the glory of the unified merits of Christ alone, but there is also an immediate presence of God in hell unto eternal wrath for the exaltation of the glory of Jesus Christ for the endless terror-filled punishment of non-elect reprobates.  The Roman Eucharist is like residents of hell who are in God’s wrathful presence.  This is the real presence of the Roman Eucharist. 

My friend, why have you embraced the presence of hell on earth?  The presence of Christ in hell is a ruthless pursuit of torment.  It is like a restless soul that never has comfort but digs deeper and deeper into the abyss of agony that never heals but is scorched with spiritual flames that do not kindled the heart for Jesus Christ but for the glory of men.  It is possible to use unleavened beard in Romanism but mean it for the impure purity of idolatry.  I have seen a Roman priest put human blood on the Eucharist and say consecration but except it to be eaten on precedence of sacrilege.  I rightly suspect without conjecture that I suppose Rome’s view of transubstantiation could transform anything into Jesus Christ.  I dare mention that this is the view of Roman priests.  It avails nothing but the further bondage of the people.  It’s meritorious for increasing the displeasure of God but not the pleasure of Jesus.    

All sin comes down to idolatry.  The reason is because it is about replacing Jesus with worship of human hands.  If something is worshiped by the creation of human hands by sinners, it is not God but the creation of the sin of self-worship.  Worship of something that is of human hands is forbidden by God.  If it is forbidden by God and it is done in sin.

Do you want to please God but not add to the Unaddable Jesus?  It simply means the implantation of the Spirit’s intended meaning of the God-chosen authors about the divine, spiritual and substantial presence of Jesus Christ.  

Do you live according to the unified imputed righteousness of Christ by faith alone?  Is your Eucharist a relic somewhere or more about being a living sacrifice for Jesus because the Spirit has awakened you to live by Christ in a faith that works by His Almighty hand? 

Faithlessness is the essence of idolatry but faithfulness is a picture of Jesus.  If someone is faithful he will partake of Holy Communion through the best picture of Jesus in unleavened beard that teaches us about the all-supremacy of the atonement of the Lamb yielded to death that never conquered Him by a life that lives beyond death through Incarnate Deity! 

Remember Jesus’ presence in the Eucharist through the accompanying Word by the Word-authentication of the substantial spiritual reality of the Eucharist like the Ark of the Covenant where there is the real presence of God that only those of the particular imputation of Jesus Christ may approach, or partake of the eating and drinking of judgment and guilt of the Lord’s death!

CHAPTER 2: 

THE MASS THAT IS NOT JESUS

The Mass claims to be transformed into Jesus by the consecration of the Roman priest.  If the Mass truly is a celebration of the material presence of Jesus Christ in bodily form in the appearance of body and wine, how does any totally polluted, radically corrupt and thoroughly depraved sinner have power over the ever-living and eternal God-man? 

There is no creature that has power over the eternal Incarnate Son of Man, because He is God the Son in human flesh.  The priest claims to be another Christ in Roman theology, but this is the false blasphemy that was accused of John Huss where Roman authorities accused him of advocating the Fourth Member.  Rather this is the error of Romanism because the priesthood claims to be another Christ and priests even advocate bodily sinlessness while engaging in dirty deeds of homosexual deplorability. 

No Roman priest could actually be in the same priesthood of Jesus Christ, because He is uniquely called to His High Priestly Office as the “offering” and “offered.”  No Roman priest has the ability to be priest because he is not God and man, because they also claim to be a mediator.  The only true mediator is Jesus Christ as God and man alone, because He alone is the sinless God and sinless man in One person with two natures.  This is why every Roman priest is excluded from the being a mediator and could never bring Jesus down from heaven and turn Him into bread.

No sinner can give the Holy Triune God a demand or a command, because only God can issue commands for His sinful creatures.  A holy Triune God will grant any request that is not bound in sin, because He only grants requests that are from and unto His holy will alone.  To make Jesus into bread is contrary to the natural order of God’s creation.  The Incarnate God the Son cannot be a consecrated host because He would be reduced to a creation.  Does not the Nicene Creed state “begotten, not made?”  Are you actually suggesting God the Son takes on Himself bread that is another incarnation of sorts where bread does not provide salvation, because Jesus Christ also symbolically referred to Himself as the door of the sheep due to the fact that He is the only way to the only Holy Father who is God the Father!

Do you suppose it is some great thing to have as doctrine that God the Son is transformed into beard?  Does this make you stand before God the Father in matchless robes of Jesus Christ?  If it accomplished anything, why do you need the repetition of purification of sin while if a mortal sin was committed a Roman Catholic would be outside the state of grace the same day of partaking of the Eucharist?  Do you want to know what takes a lovelier, holier and greater Spirit-granted gift of faith of the Word of God contained in the Bible?  Is it not what the Spirit of God alone can grant to poor and helpless sinners? 

The greater and harder faith is the faith granted by the written Word and Spirit in the free unified sole imputed meritorious righteousness of Jesus Christ alone in the place of His chosen people who receive the gift of faith alone not by baptismal waters, nor works of satisfaction, nor papal indulgences, but the sheer and free power of the sovereign Triune God accompanied His matchless written Word who saves to the uttermost His people devoid of every sacrament, work, effort, willing or running: namely, have you lived so long and yet you do not know the holy preciousness of His imputed unified righteousness of Jesus Christ that alone robes and clothes you in His matchless and divine purity from heaven by His Spirit and Word?  

CHAPTER 3: 

THE BREAD THAT IS NOT JESUS

The reason why the bread is not Jesus in a material presence is because it fundamentally denies the two natures of Jesus Christ in His human and divine natures.  The beard of the Mass essentially and fundamentally confuses the human nature with the divine nature in transforming it into the literal body of Jesus Christ, because Rome says that the human nature is consecrated over every Roman altar.  The human nature cannot be at more than one place at a time, but the divine nature can be everywhere at the same time.  

We say that Jesus is the Lamb of God slain from the foundation of the earth.  We say that Jesus is the Lion of Judah who wears robes of royalty and majesty.  We also say that Jesus is the Beard of Life and He is also referred to as the Living Water because He Himself provides eternal and spiritual life.  Does the symbolic designation of Lamb, Lion, Bread and Water mean literal things that make Jesus these literal things without symbolism?  The Lamb symbolizes His slaughter; the Lion His majesty; the Bread as life and Water as peace!

Touching His human nature Jesus is absent from us at the Father’s right Hand on His matchless throne, but touching His divine nature Jesus is never absent from us and He is always present with us.  This is a vital distinction but not a separation.  It fundamentally denies the Incarnate Christ in the true balance of His human and divine natures.   We are not called to mix the human and divine natures like Rome, but we are called to distinguish between the human and divine natures.  Without a legitimate distinction between the human and divine natures it only results in heresy.  There is a limit to understanding the Incarnate Christ but we are forbidden to mix, confuse or separate the human and divine natures of Jesus Christ.

The clear testimony of the Bible does not support a double incarnation.  That is, the Bible clearly supports God the Son taking upon Himself human flesh by His immaculate conception in the Virgin Mary by the overshadowing of the Holy Spirit upon her.  He was not conceived of a human father.  The Bible does not support the God-man to be an incarnation of bread by the consecration of the Roman priest.  The Bible refers to Jesus’ death by the breaking of the beard that symbolizes His sinless humanity in His sacred body.  Therefore we reject a hypostatic union of the God-man with Roman bread on the basis of the set apart uniqueness of His divine incarnation where God the Son entered into His own creation to redeem lost, astray and wandering sheep to gather the many to honor, worship and serve Him to the uttermost by His Spirit.

CHAPTER 4: 

CAN THE DIRTY HANDS OF ROMAN HOMOSEXUAL PRIESTS IN DEFILEMENT OF THE DOCTRINE OF INTENT MAKE THE BREAD INTO JESUS CHRIST?

The doctrine of intent disqualifies Rome in all her priestly affairs.  The Reformed confessional standard rejects the doctrine of intent, because not all are inwardly called by God to ministry but some are outwardly called to ministry.  Though this is the case, Reformed people always want born again people in ministry.

Most Roman priests are aware of their damnation because valid assurance is presumption.   Many Roman priests do not care if they are damned, but take it as a token of humility to be in the despair of ignorance.  (This is based on eyewitness testimony where Roman priests are persuaded with the comfort of despair).

The historical doctrine of intent invalidates the Roman Eucharist because of their hidden degradation of traditional marriage where they hold in their dirty hands the body of Jesus Christ.  There is a Roman ministry of deceit among Roman priests who suppose goodness in themselves but possess none positionally or practically. 

Rome denies the unified imputed life and death of Christ alone as a forensic declaration because she claims it is a legal fiction.  Is a legal fiction based on the real righteousness of Jesus Christ in how someone is right with a holy God?  Wouldn’t a legal façade be Rome’s goodness where the Bible says in Romans chapter 3 that there is no goodness but only advocate Philippians 3:9 in the alone qualified unified merit of merits of the God-man alone?  Why turn to Roman priests as a mediator when the intent of Jesus Christ in redemption is perfectly and divinely pure to save a particular people from every tribe, tongue, people and nation?

CHAPTER 5:  

THE DOUBLE PRESENCE OF CHRIST

a.)  What is the double presence of Jesus Christ? 

The double presence of Jesus Christ is simply the proclaimation of God’s written Word and the Sunday practice of Holy Communion. 

b.)  How is this the double presence of Jesus Christ?

Jesus Christ is present in the power of the Holy Spirit in the preaching of God’s written Word and He is divinely present in the Holy Eucharist.

c.)  Does the Word preached bring conviction?

The written Word preached brings conviction because of the work of the Spirit and the remembrance of the death of the Son brings a reminder to the appeasing and expiating wounds of Jesus Christ.

d.)  How is the Holy Eucharist different than mere omnipresence?

Holy Communion involves the divine omnipresence of Jesus Christ touching His divine nature, but it is divinely special in another way, because of the written Word’s remembrance of the precious death of the eternal Son that sanctifies Holy Communion by bare precedence of administration, reflective prayer, Bible reading and partaking of the means of His divine presence in remembrance of His glorious death that conquered sin, defeated death and pardoned rebels.
