>>23381162>Where?the sacraments are symbolic celebrations, not magic. Communion talks about blood as a symbol that is described repeatedly all throughout scripture:
[1Jo 5:8 KJV] 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
Blood represents the holy spirit, one of the fruits of the spirit is truth. The truth cleanses and sets you free. Jesus represents truth manifest symbolically.
>>If a text doesn't align with scripture it should be removed.because of the idea of "precept upon precept" the scripture was written by manny men over a period of around 6000 years. If a precept doesn't align with a previous precept it is not scripture, or a wrong interpretation. That is why scripture is a miracle, it is truly from God and inspired because it is many many men living in vastly diverse times and situations but agreeing on the spirit of the message.
