Your words sound flat in the eyes of Catholic. "The word of god became flesh" is not a metaphore. It's a reality. This word grew up with us. And he was the bread instead of the lamb. He was the lamb.

I sure hope they don't start sacrificing lambs again, they have tried to on the temple mount.
No, by saying that Christ must be devoured by hearing tertullian is clearly saying that the body of Christ is eaten by the ear. If you think that he was being literal try putting the eucharist into your ear next time you are at mass. It will do you about as much good.
Catholicism is a very complicated religion which is why the Church actually doesn't encourage laymen to try to teach it to non-Catholics. They are afraid we will get it wrong, and do more harm than good.
So the job of the Catholic layman is to spread the Good News by our example, by our deeds, and "they will know we are Christian by our love." Which is well and good, and I think for most Catholics, that is good advice.
But I am going to try to teach Catholicism anyway, because I think maybe I can handle the task. I have taken a course in canon law, I have perused the Catholic Bible and know it well, and I have read the Catholic Catechism, or can find what I need out of it.
So here's a beginning:
The center of the Catholic Church, the thing that is above all things, the reason the Catholic Church exists, is to celebrate the Mass.
And the center of the Mass is the Sacrament of the Eucharist. Delivery of the Sacrament of the Eucharist to the world's one billion Catholics is the most important thing the Catholic Church does in this world.
Does that seem strange to you?

No it isn't. The teaching of transubstantiation is blasphemy. The RCC mass is almost identical to the Black Mass of Satanists. You've got top witches in this country who identify themselves publicly as "Catholics" on wikipedia. Look up Cindy Williams (from Laverne and Shirley). Classic example.I believe Jesus was saying become me, when he said to drink his blood and eat his flesh. He is the bread of life, like the mamma was in the OT. Sustain oneself on spiritual things before physical. Jesus spoke in parables and metaphors and allegories.
I doubt the RCC knew what to do with this saying, since most in those days took it literally, and so they decided to call it transubstantiation taken from Aristotle, which does not mean what they say. There is a bacterium that turns reddish when its moist, and so I do believe that some actually thought the hosts did bleed in early centuries.
Its really very special the way the Mass is, but even if one believes in transubstantiation or not (me), its receiving the spirit of Jesus, and its the main part of the RC Mass, of which we all participate. I can't imagine belonging to a church that hands out grape juice and crackers and lectures for an house. We go to Mass to worship , not get a sermon.
Teaching people that salvation is through Mary and the Roman Catholic Church instead of through Jesus Christ alone. You people are in BIG TROUBLE!

Note the Mobius pin on her collar. That's a symbol of witchcraft, folks.
These people LOVE to hide in plain sight! Hollywood is FULL OF THEM.

How sad is it that the Gospel of Jesus Christ has been preached on this board for at least the past 4 years and there are still Catholic people who are ready to deny the Gospel of Jesus Christ because of their devotion to a dead cult religion? What possible excuse will ANY of you have when you face Jesus Christ and He says to you, depart from me ye workers of iniquity, I never knew you!!
Teaching people that salvation is through Mary and the Roman Catholic Church instead of through Jesus Christ alone. You people are in BIG TROUBLE!
It is written: But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:3

Catholicism does not teach that salvation is through Mary and the Catholic Church. Salvation is a gift/plan of God. The Catholic Church conscientiously follows Apostolic teachings, which the Church passes on as a guaranteed way of salvation. The Church cannot guarantee any other way, but nor does it condemn any other way, noting that the Church entrusts separate ways to the mercy of our Lord. As Catholics, we are the Body of Christ. The Church cannot separate from Jesus. To follow one is to follow the other.
Do take note that one must follow the Church/Body of Christ, not individual Catholic sinners. It should also be noted that many non-Catholics think of salvation merely as a guaranteed heavenly afterlife. For Catholics salvation is a way of living here on earth that extends on into a heavenly afterlife. (God's will be done on earth as it is in heaven.)

Tertullian is saying that we no not receive pieces of Christ's body--i.e. an ear, a nose, or a finger. We receive Christ in his entirety.
Sure it does. Are you calling your pope a liar now?
News flash for you. You're not praying to God. You're praying to Baal.It is written: But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.
2 Corinthians 11:3
We will all pray for your soul, yes EVE was taken in, but not Mary , the Queen of Heaven.
You may wish to learn what the heck your Romanist cult teaches! Seriously! Your ignorance is astounding!!!Sure it does. Are you calling your pope a liar now?
You may wish to re-read my post. Or the Catholic Catechism. Or both.
