W c present the following discussion to our readers as valuable. T h e Catholic doctrine and faith in A m e r i ca, has not been in the least changed ou this article, how e v e r much tho rougher edges o f their intolerant character, as it exists in Europe, have been rubbed olf, and polished, b y their intercourse with the Pro testants ot the United States. .Hence it is befitting that vve knovv accurately, and can refute one of the most p rominent doctrines of C atholicism. N o r is this singular c oueeit uf the bread and wine being convert ed into “Jhsh and blood real and carnal,” confined to the Priests, who can not nthervv ise get along with out such specifics, and such miracles. Nor is it e- ven ctuifiiK'd Co their parishioners, who are proliiliilnl the u-e o f the scriptures, and are, gouoially, not taught to road, in older that their orthodoxy niay the more clVectually be shielded from danger. E v e n such men as Charles Butler, E-q. o f the Inner T e m p l e , has advocated it in his late Catholic work. But he has astonished the English and Irish Catholics, and has set tho whole o f tho British critics in a roar of laughter, by Iris n e w argument and illustration. H e holds, that Christ’s realfiesh, am! real blood carnal, exist in the the wafers, and in tho wine, after the Priest has const*crated them, even as certainly, and even as mysteriously as, in the late British vile in termixtures, “ the quassia is found intermixed with beer J” I refer m y readers to the Edinburgh R e v i e w , No. 80, p. 825. A n d without detaining them any longer on t he porch, I introduce them forthwith to our brother’s dissertation, by which lie overthrew’ the Priests, while he w a s mending his limbs at t he warm springs o f A , in Europe, Matt. xxvi. 20-28. — As they were eating , Jesus took bn ad, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to his discipl.s, and suid, Take, eut; this is my bo dy. And ht took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to thi to, saying, JU ink ye all of i t ; for this is my blood of tht -Yew Testannnt, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. John vi. 53-30.— Then Jesus said unto them, Fe rity, r o i l y , I say u n to y o u , E x c ip t y r eat the f it s h o f th e Son o f man, and drink his blood, y e have no life in you. JVhoso cateth my fitsh , und drinketh m y blood, h a th eternal life, a n d I w ill raise him up at the last day. For m y flesh is meat indeed, and m y blood is drink indeed. H e that eateth m y fle s h , and d rinketh m y blood , dweUcth in m e, a n d J in him. 1. T h e s e passages m u s t be understood ei th e r literally or f i g u r a t ively. C a t h o l i c s u n d e r s t a n d th e m literally, and m a i n t a i n th e d o c t r i n e , t h a t th e bread and w ine consecrat ed by th e P r i e s t , m i r a c u lously becom e th e real body and blood o f C h r is t. P r o t e s t a n t s , a t least Calvinists, u n d e r s t a n d th e m figura tively, and m a i n t a i n th a t th e elem e n t s o f bread and w ine, are n o t r e a l l y t h e body and blood o f C h r i s t , b u t s ignify, o r r e p r e s e n t t h e m . T h e difference is a n im p o r t a n t one. I f th e la t t e r are r i g h t , t h e n t h e f o r m e r are g u i l t y o f gross idolatry. I f t h e f o r m e r are r i g h t , t h e n th e l a t t e r , i n a s m u c h as t h e y d o n o t literally “ e a t t h e flesh o f t h e Son o f m a n , a n d d r i n k his blood,” can n o t b e saved. The Catholic says, These declarations of o u r Lord, “ T h i s is m y b o d y — this is m y blood— m y flesh is m e a t indeed— m y blood is d r in k indeed— h e tlmt eatetli m y flesh— he t h a t d r in k e th m y b lo o d ,” a re too p la in to be understood otherwise than literally. 3. But they are not more plain than m a n y other declarations o f Scripture, which yet every m a n ’s c o m m o n sense tells him are not to he understood literally. T h u s w e read: “ Ye are the salt o f the earth,” Matt. v. u . “ Verily, v erily, I say unto you, 3 a m the door o f the sheep,” John x. 7* \I am the vine, y e are the branches,” John xv. 5. “ T h e seven good kine are seven y e a r s ; and the seven good ears are s even years,’’ Gen. lxi. 2 G Now every body sees at once that these pas sages aru to be interpreted figuratively.— W h y thou object to interpret figuratively those in hand ? 4. Our Lord has not more plainly said that the consecrated bread is hi.- body, than that his body is bread. “ I am the bread whieli cam e down from heaven,” John vi. -IS—AI. I f then you believe that the bread is really his body, you are hound to believe, in direct contradiction to this, that liis body is really bread; indeed you are bound to believe that one thing is another, aud a very different thing, at t h e same tim e . 5. But does not our Lord him s e lf give a fig u r a t i v e interpretation to liis words ? After speaking a great deal about eating his flesh and drinking liis blood, he says that he in tends to be understood iu a spiritual sense. “ T h e f e s h profitetk n o t h i n g ; the words w h ich 1 speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are l i f e ” John vi. 63. T h a t is, t h e y are to be understood in a spiritual sense. A g a in : l i e tells us that w e receive him as the bread o f life, by c o m ing to him, or believing in him. “ I aui the bread o f lifej he that eoineth to m e , shall never hunger, and lie that believeth on m e , shall never thirst.” v. 3 5 . A g a in : In the same connexion, “ I l e that believeth on m e , hath everlasting life.” v. 4 7 , the very ef fect which he ascribes to eating his llcsh^and drinking his blood, v. 54 j and this is the same cllect as that which lie ascribes to eating the bread o f life, which bread of* life lie interprets to be his flesh, given for the life o f the W O R L D , v. 5 0 , 51. W e conclude, there fore, that Christ hiuk-elf has given a figura tive interpretation to ihu word*; in dispute. T h i s conclusion is confirmed by these addi tional words o f the Institution, as recorded, L u k e xxii. 19- lC o r . xi. 2 -J, 2 5 . “ T h is do in rem e mbrance o f m e . ” N o w , we rem e m ber things which are absent or paM. But if Christ and his sucriluv be vi-ihK before our eyes in the Supper, with what prupiiely can it be culled a n .ni inl'rttnre 6 . T o this let us add the evidence o f our scwu'i s’. If we look at the sacred element'-, i f w e feel t h e m , i f we sm e ll them, and i f we tuMe them, we pereoi\e hv these .several means, that t h e y are bread and wine j the s a m e bread and wine which they were before the conse cration ; it is impossible to perceive tlie least change in them . Convinced by this evi dence, we conclude that they have nut lite rally becom e the body and blood o f our Lord, but that these expressions are to be under stood figuratively. 7- You say that “ in this ca*o oursen-.es deceive us. T h e y testily in contradiction to the words o f Christ, and therefore are not to be trusted.” 8 . I answer, that they do not “ testify in contradiction to the words o f Christ,” blit in explanation ol them , and in favour o f a figu rative interpretation. 9 . T h e evidence whieli, you say, is not to be trusted here, is the verv kind o f e \ idence which our Lord uni only authorizes, but ap peals to, as the strongest fur distinguishing liis body. \ \ hew the disciples “ wore terri fied aud ailViglited, supposing that ,b .*v bad seen a spirit, he said unto them, W h y tu v y o troubled ? and why do thoughts arise in vour hearts r Behold m y hands, and m y leet, that it is I m y s e l f ; handle m e ,and see m e ; fur a spirit hath not llesli and bones as v e see me liave. A n d when he had thus spoken, he showed them his hands and his f e e t .” Luke xxiv. 3 7 , 4 0 . On another occasion, he said unto T h o m a s iu particular, “ R e a c h hither thy linger, and behold m y hands j and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into m y side, and be not faithless, hut believing.” John xx. 27* N o w if the Catholic Priest could say, “ Reach hither thy linger, and thy lmnd, and behold thnt this is the body o f Christ,” we should be as readily convinced its the disci ples were. But unfortunately, our lingers, and hands, and eyes, and m o u th, and nose, all testify the very contrary to what the Driest wishes. T h e y testify that the sacred elements are not the body and blood o f Christ, but the same identical bread and wine that t h e y were before the consecration. Christ appeals to a kind o f e v idence to wliich the Prie.-idoes not appeal. Christ authorizes a kind o f evi dence, which the Priest says “ deceives us, and is not to be trusted.” [Rem a inder next tc«X\] F id e l i t y o f a D o g . — In an E n g l i s h vil lag e , a countryman o f a s a v a g e temper was in th e c u s tom o f maltreating his wife so se v e r e l y , t h a t his neighbours, attracted by her cries, h a d f r e q u e n t l y been obliged to inter fere for h e r assistance.
