- If the Mass is a sacrifice, doesn't that mean Catholics are crucifying Jesus over and over again? Catholic apologist Karlo Broussard explains how this common Protestant objection misunderstands what's really happening during Mass.

Thanks for taking my call and for such a good response. You guys do an amazing job 🙏
We offer ourselves in mass.
God is out of place and time - something impossible for us to really understand.
We learn that the Devil (Evil) WAS defeated but when we look around there's increasing evil everywhere. How's that possible? We simply don't know... our minds work chronologically but God does not and this is when faith must step in.
One of the beauties of the Catholic Church is the fact that in SO MANY cases it simply says "we don't know".
The mass is also (beautifully) called "The Saint Mysteries" because it is simply that a mystery.
"Now we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections in a mirror, but then we will see everything with perfect clarity. All that I know now is partial and incomplete, but then I will know everything completely, just as God now knows me completely."
- Cor 13,12
It is not a good response, this must be the worst argument ever. Heb 8:3 is not talking about Jesus' priesthood, it's talking about human priests that offer multiple gifts and sacrifices, but verse 6 and 13 clearly states that this offerings by humans are obsolete. This guy establishes the need for multiple offerings from this verse, but if you just read what follows it's refuted.
More proof? In Hebrews 10:11 it clearly says that the old system was based on exercising their religious duties again, and again, AND AGAIN, but Jesus gave ONE sacrifice for all time and AFTER THAT He WENT to the throne of God to sit at His right hand ANDDDD he then *WAITS* (verse 10:13)
There is nowhere in the Bible that says that Jesus is giving multiple offerings of one sacrifice. It's clearly stated, you just have to read it.
Jesus is our High Priest forever, who has ascended into heaven and is outside of time, in eternity. Thus, through the Mass, the one complete sacrifice of Jesus becomes present (through earthly ministerial priests) across all times and places. God bless, friends!
Ipso-KK3ft . what you are commenting is not biblical . Only Christ the High Priest ascended to heaven and took his blood with him and set at the right hand of God to make intercession for us saved believers , no one else . There is no more sacrifices Christ died one time for sin , and through his intercession we ask God to for give our daily sin and he does . 1John 1 : 8 - 10 ;what you just commented is not biblical , it is a fabricated deceptive lie of the catholic church .
There are no more priest in the New Testament Church under the New Covenant . and no one can forgive sins but God through Christ . The eucharist
and the Mass are pagan ritual . not the inspired word of God .
Then why have “priests” if Jesus is your high priest?
@@romandaigle455 Only Catholic have priest , there is no call for priest in the New Testament Church under the New Covenant . Priest are not biblical , that is an unbiblical catholic dogma ,
@@donaldcooley897 absolutely correct, I do think other denominations might have “ priests “ like Greek Orthodox churches?
I’ve heard this explained several times with several different people and this is the first time it clicked and made sense. Thank you Catholic Answers!!!
Hebrews 2:17 therefore, he had to become like his brothers in every way, that he might be a merciful and faithful high priest before God to expiate the sins of the people.
Isn't there kind of a begging the question sort of thing going on? If the Roman Catholic perspective is wrong, then you're praying over bread, which isn't re-crucifying Jesus. If the Roman Catholic perspective is correct, then it's the official position that they don't re-crucify.
You said it perfectly. I couldn’t put into words and then I read your comment.
@@donjon2023 That's what I do. I have perfect words. And I'm humble too. In fact, it's a good thing I'm so humble. If I weren't I would be darn near unbearable. In fact if I weren't so humble the only thing to keep me from being completely unbearable is the fact that I'm so awesome. True story.

Wasn’t it the Pope Innocent Iii claim transubstantiation was truth for the first time in the 1200’s? And doesn’t the mass sacrifice give grace to dead and living Christians to keep them out of purgatory? That means it IS the same sacrifice. So when was the mass introduced? Christ offered His sacrifice ONCE for all. You cannot assume that the mass has anything to do with justification or sanctification, but because the RCC does teach exactly that, there is no difference then. It is a huge stretch and a poor attempt to differentiate the two by calling one a bloody sacrifice (which would be pretty hard to replicate) and the other an unbloody one. It’s as if to say they aren’t the same by that minor difference.
@Kk doc - Yes sir, Jesus said so, if you do not eat my flesh & drink my blood you have no life in you.
And transubstantiation was simply redefined in a specific way in the 1200's, not defined for the first time. All the early church fathers prove this from the 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th 9th 10th century. Just like the trinity was specifically defined in 4th century and named trinity, Was NOT invented then, just specified. God bless you brother.

Boy, the ignorance of many on this question is amazingly sad. No, He is not. We are at the "1" sacrificial crucifixion of our Lord, when He took upon Himself our sins to give us eternal life. We're at the foot of the cross every mass, at Calvary. There is no continued crucifying of our Lord, it was a 1-time death, accepted by God on its intention. What we do continue upon Christ is continuing to sin and inflicting even more wounds upon Him. That is heartbreaking, the uncaring nature of billions hurting Jesus daily - how great is His love we have not been pulverized into nothingness.
Everybody crucifies Jesus over and over, He died for the sins of everybody, believer and not believer. Now, He is coming back in glory and his wounds will be healed when his mystical body is back to him in sanctity and peace. But as long as sin continues to increase, our Lord will continue to suffer. The Devotion of the Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ says it all, it is for these times.
Ramon Velasquez , Christ died one time for sin
Hebrews 10 : 12 - 18 ; Christ was resurrected in
a mystical body . He ascended in to heaven in a mystical body and when he calls us to meet him in the air we will be in a incorruptible body when we see him we will be like him . The Mass and the eucharist offer up Christ as a sacrifice
which is not scriptural There is no call for a priest in the New testament Church , under the
New Covenant . Christ suffered and died one time for sin . He now sets at the right hand of God to make intercession for us .you are saved
by his death and his blood which cleanse us of
Sin . there is no sacrifices because Christ was offered one time for sin Hedrews 10 : 12 ;
Are you saved by the grace of God through faith in Christ there there is no other way Eph. 2 :8- 9 ;
That is not a teaching of God!
@@eve3363 yes it is. I don't know what "denomination" you claim to be, but if it does not teach this it is incomplete.
@@ramonvelasquez8431Christ died once.
@@eve3363 For the sins of all history and sin still has not ended, it keeps happening. Christ's physical body is not on the cross, but his mystical body is still in trouble, is it so hard to believe that He still cares, or that He still suffers?
Where does Hebrews say He needs to sacrifice in an unbloody manner?
Was wondering about that leap as well.
Meanwhile Hebrews 7:27 says:
"He doesn’t need to offer sacrifices every day, as high priests do - first for their own sins, then for those of the people. He did this once for all time when he offered himself."
And Hebrews 9:24-26
"For Christ did not enter a sanctuary made with hands (only a modelf of the true one) but into heaven itself, so that he might now appear in the presence of God for us.
He did not do this to offer himself many times, as the high priest enters the sanctuary yearly with the blood of another.
Otherwise, he would have had to suffer many times since the foundation of the world. But now he has appeared one time, at the end of the ages, for the removal of sin by the sacrifice of himself."
Hebrews 10:10-14
"By this will, we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all time.
Every priest stands day after day ministering and offering the same sacrifices time after time, which can never take away sins.
But this man, after offering one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God.
He is now waiting until his enemies are made his footstool.
For by one offering he has perfected forever those who are sanctified."
Hebrews point to one sacrifice once and for all, unlike the many sacrifices that had to be done yearly through the old covenant.
But when this priest had offered for all time one sacrifice for sins, he sat down at the right hand of God, Hebrews 10.12
Excellent explanation
When protestants say that. One question comes to mind. Do protestants believe the Eucharist is Jesus in the flesh?
No.
No I don’t.

Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. So you must be careful to do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy, cumbersome loads and put them on other people’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.
Everything they do is done for people to see: They make their phylacteries wide and the tassels on their garments long; they love the place of honor at banquets and the most important seats in the synagogues; they love to be greeted with respect in the marketplaces and to be called ‘Rabbi’ by others.
“But you are not to be called ‘Rabbi,’ for you have one Teacher, and you are all brothers. And do not call anyone on earth ‘father,’ for you have one Father, and he is in heaven. Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one Instructor, the Messiah. The greatest among you will be your servant. For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted".
(Matthew 23 NIV)
You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything, in Heaven above or in the Earth beneath, or in the waters below. You shall not bow down to them or worship them, for I the Lord your God am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents up to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.
"If my people who are called by my name, humble themselves and pray, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, I will hear from Heaven, will forgive their sins, and will heal their land."
And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.
This, then, is how you should pray:
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.

REPENT, and start doing what is right.
If you abide my teachings, you are really my disciples; then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
A time is coming and has now come, that the true worshipers will worship the Father in Spirit and Truth. God is Spirit, so his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and Truth; they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks.
In the New Heaven and New Earth,
only Righteousness dwells.
May the Spirit of our Lord Jesus Christ our God be with you all.
If you read the epistle to the church in Corinth, you'll notice that the Apostle Paul did not write the word 'thusia' but rather 'anamnesis '
God is out of time and place.
Exactly, when we access Him He is eternal in time. Protestants want Gods perception of time to be limited to ours.
I am a little confused. I thought the Eucharist was the literal body and blood of Christ. If so how is the Mass not bloody? Does that mean the Eucharist isn't the blood of Christ?
Jesus was/is crucified once, His blood and body lasts forever.
Okay so please someone (Catholic) respond. [for your info, i’m a protestant who is indecisive on this matter] The only thing seperating mass and Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross is that it isn’t the bloody sacrifice. But what about the blood miracles happening around the world. The one distinction (the bloody part) is even done away with so it is basically synonimous now.
Jesus commanded an unbloody REPRESENTATION of Calvary Jn 6 51-58 with the priest in persona Christi acting as Jesus the high priest offering Him as victim to His Father. When the priest says, MY body MY blood, it is not that of the priest but that of Jesus. Yes, Christ died once for all our sins, but He commanded perpetual propitiatory sacrifice for our sins which the early church commenced doing. Jesus has forgiven our sins, however, reparation still needs to be made via the Holy Mass
Read Mal 1:11 with gentiles offering pure sacrifice at all times in all places with the CC doing exactly that daily in most parishes around the world. The words daily bread, in their original language, refer to supernatural bread or Eucharist! If you don’t believe in His Real Presence, investigate Eucharistic miracles, msgs from God which science can’t explain with the same AB blood type & living heart tissue. Visit Carlos Acutis
Does Jesus make present His blood over and over again in the heavenly sanctuary as your video claims?
No. Not according to the bible.
Heb. 9:24-26 - For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
Your video says that Christ is offering His blood to the Father. The bible says that He offerED His blood once. Catholicism cannot win this debate unless she plays her trump card, which is, "Peter was the first pope". that wins EVERY hand.
Hi someone please help me out. Is the suffering of Jesus present in the Holy Mass yes or no?
No! Go search for and watch literally thousands of sermons of charismatic or Evangelical preachers, reformed and everything in between, telling everyone (imagine some yelling preacher) "you know who crucified Jesus don't you?!?! YOU DID ! I DID! Every sin we committed was like a nail in His hands". This is an ANALOGY, not exact explanation, but it's a similar concept.
Nobody, literally nobody, thinks that Jesus is tortured and recrucified again and again. Does Jesus suffer in that we still sin? I'm sure it grieves Him, probably more than a parent who loses a child to sin.
Offering up Christ's body and blood, as a sacrifice, is a continuous thing that happened after the "bloody sacrifice" (the one crucifixion for the remission of sins).
Note: I am studying and converting to Catholicism, I am NOT a Catholic theology expert. Take my explanation with a grain of salt. This is my understanding of the issue at this point in time.
if it’s unbloody, it’s not Jesus’s real actual blood. If it’s Jesus real blood, it’s pouring out jesus’s blood again (re-sacrifice) and therefore bloody. If its only a re presentation of the sacrifice.. that’s the protestant position.. a representation of the sacrifice of shed blood. Catholics fail every time when pressed on these points. You can’t have your cake and eat it too.
You're wrong. Actually, the translation is confusing. The Sacrifice is unbloody not because Jesus's Blood is not present during the Mass (It IS PRESENT), but because the Mass makes present the events from two thousands years ago and NOT KILLS Jesus for the second time (after Resurrection, death has no power over Christ). That is what "unbloody sacrifice" means: Jesus doesn't die anymore, His death happened once but is present every time the Church celebrates Mass. I hope it's clear now.
@@smerfdzikus2334
“the sacrifice is unbloody.. because the mass makes present the events from 2000 years ago..”
- We have a word for that, and the word is “representation”.. which is the articulation of the protestant view of what the sacrament is.
“..and NOT kills Jesus for the second time… that is what unbloody sacrifice means”
- That’s not what unbloody means. Unbloody literally means “free from blood or blood shed”. You cannot say it’s unbloody if it’s also Jesus’ literal blood (that’s the complete opposite of unbloody).. you cannot say it’s the actual sacrifice if it’s also the representation of the sacrifice (representations POINT to the actual thing, they are not themselves the actual thing).
It’s not a confusing translation.. it’s the actual doctrine that is confused. But the Catholics are stuck with this wording because for them to change it now would be to admit that the teaching was faulty or not infallible which would refute Catholic infallibility.
------------------
The classical protestant view has always been that the presence of Jesus in the sacrament is REAL, but it is a spiritual presence with the bread and wine which REPRESENTS His sacrifice.. not physically shedding His blood, but representing the shedding of His blood. Any time Catholics try to rationalize their wording, they end up just articulating what the Protestant view is.
@@toughbiblepassages9082 The Catholic view os different than the Protestant one. Th Catholics believe that the presence of Jesus is not only spiritual, but PHYSICAL. yes, we believe that bread and wine BECOME REAL BLOOD AND BODY OF CHRIST, it is not only a symbol. I think that's the main difference.
@@smerfdzikus2334 I am not uninformed, I know exactly what the Catholic view is. I’m pointing out how contradictory it is. It can’t be real blood and unbloody at the same time.. it can’t be a sacrifice and a representation of the sacrifice at the same time.. its a contradiction and it’s a nonsense view.
The other video I just saw said it was. This older one says it's not.
Also, Jesus is not a victim!
I think the relevant question would not be whether Catholics re-crucify Jesus during mass (obviously they don't) but whether there is a sense in which the sacrifice of Christ's crucifixion is offered back to God -- in other words, what exactly do Catholics mean by "the sacrifice of the mass?"
An unbloody REPRESENTATION of Calvary as commanded by Jesus Jn 6:51-58 with the first Mass being the Last Supper.
Yes, Christ died once for all our sins, but He commanded perpetual propitiatory sacrifice for our sins which the early church commenced doing. Jesus has forgiven our sins, however, reparation still needs to be made via the Holy Mass

That explanation explodes the theology of the Book of Hebrews.
"For by one offering He hath perfected forever them that are the sanctified." - Hebrews 10:14
This subject is covered in detail in Hebrews 10 and yet not a single word is said about a "re-presentation" of Christ's sacrifice to the Father. This is Catholic mythology.
What is the reason that Catholicism must sacrifice Jesus over and over again and then lie about it? What is the agenda? Why must their adherents do this thing?
Protestants keep saying it’s blasphemy
Im not catholic but everything that your guys do in your churhes are wrong according to them its make me sick .
Of course not!!! it 's nothing but a Religious ceremony that was never what Roman Catholics teach about it's meaning.
Any honest reading of Hebrews understands that the sacrifice of Jesus is not something that should be done (or even re-enacted) over and over again. Such practice nullifies the importance of the singularity of His death and resurrection.
We are only baptized ONCE for the remission of sins for this very cause. We're not baptized over and over again because it bellies and denies the efficacy of the remission of sins we received at our initial baptism.
No honest reading of Hebrews allows for the type of thing we see in the Catholic mass. The mass destroys all that carefully laid out theology.
Most Christians for the majority of Church history disagree with your Protestant reading of Scripture. I'll go with their way of reading it over a single person's interpretation that is only a few hundred years old at most.
Protestant ignorance
DO JESUS RE-SUISURRENDER TO BE SACRIFICED FOR OUR SINS DURING THE MASS. if so, then yes. CATHOLIC DO RE-CRUCIFY JESUS during the mass😮
Hebrews chapter 9
Absolute nonsense
Of course reference the man made catechism and not the divinely inspired Bible.
Not everything is in the bible Jn 21:25. The Catechism explains & expands on the bible via the Magisterium guided by the HS. Protestantism has nothing to compare except confusing & divisive personal interpretation
One particularly well-known Catholic method of exploitation in the Middle Ages was the practice of selling indulgences, a monetary payment of penalty which, supposedly, absolved one of past sins and/or released one from purgatory after death.
THE LAST SUPPER IN THE UPPER ROOM, OFFICIATED BY JESUS WAS SYMBOLIC! 13 They left and found things just as Jesus had told them. So, they prepared the Passover. 14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. 15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.” 17 After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. 18 For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.” 19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.[a] 21 But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table. 22 The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed. But woe to that man who betrays him!” 23 They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this. Luke 22: 7-23 NIV

Christ's sacrifice may have been a one time sacrifice. But have we truly died in him and with him? Each time i partake in communion, I see myself dying in Him and with Him. What i am receiving is his entire passion leading to his ultimate death and his sacrifice. I died with Him and in Him. And since i have died in Him and with Him, I will resurrect with Him. And dying in Christ in the flesh is an ongoing process. And thus Sanctification process takes place each time we partake in holy communion. That's how i look at it.

When you say that it's not a bloody sacrifice are you saying that the wine is NOT the blood of Jesus? Be careful with your Orwellian double-speak.
You have to say that it's a bloody sacrifice, otherwise the, "This is my blood", thing evaporates.
The catechism. Not the Bible. Remove the scales from your eyes. Come out of her. Follow Jesus. Read the Word.

Everything we Catholics believe in today was believed in by the early Christians
Sola Scriptura. Not the Bible. Not a single verse in the Bible establishes a “scripture alone” doctrine. Interpretations by Protestants about verses that “imply” Scripture being the only infallible authority rely on their own presuppositions and motivated reasoning.
