!["Mithras, the god of Mithraism, was [supposedly] ‘present' in the flesh and blood of the bull, and when consumed, granted salvation to those who partook of the sacrificial meal."
Catholicism teaches that the bread and wine become Christ’s actual body and blood that we eat and drink.
However, when Jesus said, "this is my body" and "this is my blood," it was symbolic;
just as it is when the Bible also says Jesus is a rock, bread, and a door. He is not literally any of those either. And how would a still-living Christ, in His fully intact body, pass His own blood and body tissue to the disciples at the Last Supper? BIBLICAL COMMUNION IS SYMBOLIC
In the early centuries A.D., Roman Emperor Constantine combined Christian and Pagan beliefs in a new religion that could be acceptable to many of either side. It later became Catholicism.
Example: The Catholic Eucharist and Pagan Mithraism
"Mithraism was another religion at that time of the Roman Empire, which was very popular...One of the key features of Mithraism was a sacrificial meal, which involved eating of the flesh and the drinking of the blood of a bull." | image tagged in catholic,god,bible,jesus,last supper,pray | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/3gibax.jpg)
![IS "WORD OF FAITH," JUST HINDUISM? [3 of 4] Unfortunately, most followers of the Word of Faith movement don't realize it is basically the practice of Hinduism. It's not just similar; the core beliefs are the same. Word of Faith has taken Hindu teachings, slapped Christianese on them, and used the false teachings to defraud folks in the Christian Church. The Hindu bill of goods that these Word of Faith guys (and gals) are selling, goes something like this: You can get anything you want if you have enough belief, speak the right words, use the force of faith, send them money to get trinkets, and repeat phrases over and over. That's Hinduism! Hindus are taught to use the "God force" with mantras (repetitive chanting) to create their own reality. World of Faith leaders adopted those Hindu practices, only changing the terminology. | image tagged in hindu,god,bible,jesus,christian | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/44ufnt.jpg)
