    The power of the Lord’s Last Supper is lost on many of us because we fail to understand Jesus’ use of the word Cup; this sermon reveals how the Disciples understood Jesus saying "This is my body" and "Drink this to commemorate me."

    REAL PRESENCE OF JESUS CHRIST AT EUCHARIST UNDERSTOOD AS OATH, SACRAMENTUM. It is impossible in a short space to convey all that should be said on this subject.

    We’ve been talking a lot about getting along in a hostile environment. That, to use an old adage, honey attracts more flies than vinegar.
