JESUS NEW COVENANT
CONTINUED
Bible scholars estimate that Jesus died in or around 33 A.D. and that the Bible was compiled around 382 A.D. The Church began soon after the death of Jesus. So, the Church existed for many years before the Bible was compiled. The Bible was assembled by the Catholic Church to support the Church that was already over 360 years old. During these years before the Bible, the Church fathers followed Jesus' examples with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and practiced their Christianity by the breaking of the bread. We know this because these Church fathers wrote their teachings down. The early Church fathers believed and taught that Jesus is really, truly present in the Eucharist. Do you think it would be important to know what these early Church fathers believed and taught? The Catholic Church has preserved these documents through the years and refers to them as sacred tradition. We have access to the writings of the early Church Fathers. And if you want to read more about this, go to www.catholic.com, and read for yourself what the early Church Fathers wrote down.Once we see the entire plan of God and his master plan for salvation, we can see that Jesus is truly present. The early Church Fathers believed it, and they passed it onto us. And we need to study it, learn it, and to accept it and practice it.
