Summary Of The Lamb's Supper By Scott Hahn
This past Christmas, my parish “Sacred Heart Church” in Bowie, Maryland, gave each household a book titled: “The Lamb’s Supper” written by Scott Hahn, a convert to the Catholic Church. Scott Hahn sheds new light on the sacredness of the Holy Mass and how the book of Revelation mirrors the sacrifice and celebration of the Eucharist. Once I started reading this beautifully hidden treasure I could hardly put it down. Here is a brief synopsis of Scott Hahn’s book.
“Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass fits Catholics like their favorite clothes. Yet most Catholics sitting in the pews on Sundays fail to see the powerful supernatural drama that enfolds them. Pope John Paul

Wright appears to have been strangled with a rope and the first suspect in the crime is his wife, Mrs. Wright. In the presence of Mrs. Wight’s friends, Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale, the two men begin searching for leads to the cause of the murder.

    Lord's Last Supper Analysis

    Though there are three different accounts of the Lord’s Last Supper in the bible—written by Matthew, Luke, and John—each record share common threads. Specifically speaking, the scriptures all express Jesus’ desire for people to, through the symbols of bread and wine, receive his body and blood in remembrance of him. In other words, through this symbolic and orderly process, all accounts show that Jesus wants his followers to remember the sacrifice he made: die on the cross to pay for mankind’s sins. Ultimately, I found these accounts to show Jesus suggesting a redemptive nature of his death.…

    Holy Eucharist Vs Sacrifice

    The Holy Eucharist is the manifestation of the Orthodox Church as the new life in Jesus Christ, the new life of grace. In the Mystery (Sacrament) of the Holy Eucharist, we have the real and true presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and not any symbolic or imaginary appearance. The change of the elements of bread and wine takes place by supernatural means that surpasses all human understanding and which can only be understood through pure and undefiled faith. Although, the Holy Eucharist as a Mystery (Sacrament) and as a Sacrifice is simultaneously perfected by the same sanctification, it keeps the two inseparable features of the Mystery (Sacrament) and the Sacrifice that differ according to their nature. Because the Holy Eucharist…

    Letter To Roseville Lutheran Church

    I am writing you today as a concerned member of your congregation. Recently, I found myself on the doorstep of an old, breath-takingly beautiful cathedral, but I stumbled in only to realize that I, a devout Lutheran, am not allowed to receive communion. My lack of knowledge on the Eucharist and the guidelines the Catholic church has placed on this sacrament lead to a response of hostility and hurt on this particular guideline. I am writing to tell you that my response of hostility and hurt was wrong, and dangerous for me and my faith. To come to this conclusion, you must first understand the history behind Catholic communion, the Catholic view on transubstantiation, acceptance in relation to the Eucharist, the…

    Elements of Religous Traditions

    The rituals and community, along with material expressions, are the outlet in which believers are able to practice their faith and come together with members of the same faith for a sense of wellbeing and togetherness. The Catholic Church views their churches as holy and sacred places, where followers can come to be cleansed of their sins during services and confessions of their sins to the Priests of the church. This tradition provides an ease of mind to their followers and a place to in some aspects “escape” from their…

    Sacraments In The United Methodist Church

    Christian faith is based on love for God and love for neighbor. God loves God’s creation and extends the love for humankind through means of grace. The theology of sacraments is proportional to the means of grace. A United Methodist Understanding of Holy Communion claims that it is through sacraments that “God discloses things that are beyond human capacity to know through reason alone.” The discussion gives way to questions about grace, and the understanding about grace in the United Methodist Church, involving the Wesleyan understanding about Baptism and Eucharist. The paper will address questions like “What are sacraments in the United Methodism? How is the theology of sacraments related to the means of grace and how does a Christian become…

    Eucharistic Observation Essay

    For my observation, I went to a usual Catholic Mass at a parish local to me. I analyzed the texts being used, the words being spoken, and the level of involvement of every member present. I focused on the responses of those in attendance during prayer and the homily, a scripturally-based reflection not consisting of doctrinal instruction, spoken by the priest. Additionally, I attended Eucharistic Adoration, a ritual where one sits in front of the consecrated bread, which is believed to be the true presence of Christ, contemplating the Mystery of Christ. I observed the people who entered and left and if the read Catholic literature or wrote.…

    World Religions Report on Catholicism Hum/130

    The mass I went to was very interesting. In this because, upon entering the Sanctuary, there is the Holy Water well, that the faithful dip, their fingers into, and make a cross motion on their forehead. The Holy Water is for the faithful in remembrance of their baptism, and rejects Satan. The faithful answer to several Hail Mary prayers before the start of the service; they prep their hearts and minds for mass. Throughout the service, there was constant standing, sitting, and kneeling while the Priest prepared the sacrament, or the Eucharist, commonly called communion of the last supper. During this ritual, there were members of the congregation that assisted with the body of Christ, and the Blood of Christ, in dispensing them to other members of this parish.…

    History Of Civil Disobedience

    Civil disobedience is one of the most emotional, moving, and, powerful acts that can come from a group of individuals. Peaceful resistance is one of the only things the majority of people have to exercise their freedom and their want for a just society. Civil disobedience gives the invisible people, a voice, and a way to be heard in a sea of perceived unjust laws. Peaceful resistance is a refreshing approach to rebellion; it defies the aesthetic of rebellion but maintains its core values. People rebel because they want change, because they look around and see nothing but corruption. A peaceful resistance sends out the message that reform is due without violent intentions; it brings attention to the issue without wreaking havoc, which is ideal.…
