Due to location factor, as a Catholic, can I attend a Protestant Church to fulfill the obligation of worshipping on Sunday if there is no any Catholic Churches nearby? Can I receive Holy Communion in the Protestant Church since their theological view and belief on Communion is different from ours?
Can we receive Eucharist when we obtain absolution from a priest in confession but HAVE NOT completed all the required penances? Are we still in a state of mortal sin?
Why can’t a consecrated host be kept in our home so that Jesus’ real presence my be adored and worshipped at any time, provided that it be stored in a safe and revered way?
How do we reconcile the belief in the real presence with receiving in the hand? How about the lost particles that fall to the floor?
If wine is truly transformed to Blood during Eucharist, why would “someone cannot consume wine because of health reasons” become one of the problems when receiving the sacrament? Doesn’t transformed wine become non-wine oriented?
What is the difference between receiving Holy Communion physically and spiritually? Why is it important to receive it physically and cannot be replaced by spiritually?
On Holy Thursday, I remember the gospel reading of John 13:27, it says after Judas received the piece of bread, Satan entered him: how can that be possible when Jesus has given him the bread ( body of Christ) ?! I felt really puzzled about it, I thought with Jesus in you, the devil should have no chance!
Is it true that the host already contains the blood and the body of Christ? If so, during Holy Communion at Mass, why do we have to receive both the body and blood? Can we just receive the body and suffice?
《若望福音》六章五十一至五十八節中,耶穌提及誰「嚼」我的肉就活在祂內,請問這「嚼」字是甚麽含意。有人說領聖體後應放在口內讓祂溶化而不應咬碎,但在一個信仰分享會中,講者說領聖體後應咬及咀嚼,請問在這方面教會的教導是怎樣呢?
