“The Lord gives us His flesh to eat, and yet to understand it according to the flesh is death; while yet He says of His flesh, that therein is eternal life. Therefore we ought not to understand the flesh carnally.”
“For they supposed that He was going to deal out His body to them; but He said that He was to ascend into heaven, of course, whole: “When you shall see the Son of man ascending where He was before;” certainly then, at least, you will see that not in the manner you suppose does He dispense His body; certainly then, at least, you will understand that His grace is not consumed by tooth-biting.”
- Augustine: Tractate 27 (John 6:60-72)
Rome, as we know, believes that Christ’s body and blood are literally masticated by the mouth and teeth after His carnal body and blood are dispensed. Yet another Church divine cannot be clutched by them for support.
