Yes.

What I have said is that scripture doesn't ever call the blood Jesus shed on the cross - the blood of the covenant. The only thing scripture calls the blood of the covenant is the contents of the cup - the wine.

The blood of the covenant is propitiatory. What does scripture say is the blood of the covenant? It is not the cross. Seems like you have a problem.

It is not possible for the blood of the covenant to be symbolic. According to God the blood of covenant is the contents of the cup.

God told you? Please explain to us how God told you?

It tasted nice. It doesn't prove that the bread and wine are symbolic.

Yes, eternal life the day we eat the Eucharist. But it is a journey to the celestial city. And each day brings new trials and new challenges. So partaking of the Eucharist is not a one time guarantee of eternal life. It is a daily thing. That is why Christ told us to pray for our...

False. Scripture teaches that the bread and wine are the body and blood of Christ. My church teaches that the bread and wine are the body and blood of Christ. The nCCs teaches that the bread and wine are not the body and blood of Christ. Why should we believe the nCCs words over those...

I deny your understanding of scripture. I don't deny scripture.

Sorry, but that post doesn't say that the wine at the Last Supper is not propitiatory.

No it does not. The verse the nCCs quote in Hebrews 9 does say the NC went into effect right at the time of Jesus death. It says that the death is required before the will can take effect.

Hebrews 9 doesn't say the NC went into effect at the time of Jesus death on the cross. It tells us that the death of the testator must be established before the will takes effect. It doesn't say that the NC went into at the moment Jesus died on the cross. Scripture also say the Jesus...

It doesn't explicitly tell us that the NC went into effect at the Last Supper but it can be inferred from the words of Jesus.

The are some nCCs who don't believe the book of Hebrews is the inspired word of God. We have the authority of the church to refute that false teaching.

What is the official teaching of the Catholic Church?

Catholics use their master? Our master said, "...this is my body...this is my blood of the covenant...". Your master says the the bread is not his body and the wine is not his blood of the covenant. Why should we listen to your master?

Hebrews 7:9-10, "One might even say that Levi himself, who receives tithes, paid tithes through Abraham, for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchizedek met him." Using similar logic we could say that the NC went into effect at the LS even though Jesus hadn't actually died on the...

Jesus is also eternal begotten from the Father and God chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world. God is eternal and we are finite.

Do you have a quote from the official teaching of the Catholic Church that denies that the wine at the Last Supper is not propitiatory?

Scripture doesn't tell us the exact moment that the NC went into effect. We know that it was in effect at the Last Supper because the wine is the blood of the new covenant.
