It is the Divine Logos, who suffered in the flesh, was crucified, died, and rose again. This is contrary to both Nestorianism, and Geisler's argument above, where it is implied that Jesus couldn't have been omnipotent. The fact remains that God clearly can perform any miracle He so chooses, and this particular one entails no suspension of the principles of the Incarnation, once the doctrine of Two Natures is correctly understood. Therefore, since both the Bible and Tradition very strongly support the Real Presence, in my humble opinion, I believe in it, wishing to adhere to both. And I've yet to see any Protestant argument that has overthrown either, where the doctrine of the Eucharist is concerned.
Protestants manage to believe in many such doctrines.
Perhaps it is due to a preconceived bias against both sacramentalism and matter as a conveyor of grace, which hearkens back to the heresies of Docetism and even Gnosticism, which looked down on matter. Copyright 1996 by Dave Armstrong. All rights reserved.
