Question

You say you like Jesus

I would celebrate a death of someone that I don’t like (really hate)

And I would drink his blood and that is to show how I hate someone

But why do you do it to someone you love

(Or you copied it from someone how hates Jesus and lies and say I love him

I want an answer please

Answer 1

We don't celebrate his death, we celebrate his resurrection.

We don't drink his blood. Communion is symbolic.

Answer 2

You say you like Jesus
Yes, yes I do.

Why do you celebrate Jesus death date?
This is because it is through Jesus's death that we have the hope of eternal life.

Why do some drink his blood as far as I am concerned?
We drink wine which represents his blood. We also eat bread which represents his body. We do this to remember that he died and why he died as he instructed us to do.

I would celebrate a death of someone that I don’t like (really hate)
We do not 'celebrate' Jesus's death but more his resurrection 3 days later. When we are baptized we follow this pattern and 'die' as we go under the water and are resurrected anew in him when we come out.

And I would drink his blood and that is to show how I hate someone
By drinking his 'blood' we remember, we take part, we do it together, we receive and we thank God. All of these things help strengthen us in our faith.

But why do you do it to someone you love
As above.

(Or you copied it from someone how hates Jesus and lies and say I love him)
No, Jesus himself told us to do this in the Bible, he did this just before he died to save us.

I hope this helps, hopefully you can see why Christian have these customs and how the death of Jesus was indeed sad, but without it we would not be able to be like him and therefore have eternal life.

PS: I am not at all Catholic.

Answer 3

Fair questions - and you asked like you really are interested, so you will get an honest and straight answer from me. Here you go:

1. We don't celebrate the death - we celebrate the resurrection (Easter)

2. He instituted the ritual of rthe eucharist (spiritually drinknig his blood and eating his body) because He was the final sacrifice. Before that time the Jewish priests sacrificed animals and then ate the flesh - they were prohibited from drinking the blood because 'the life is in the blood' (Leviticus)...so that part was reserved by God until we could spiritually drink the life of Jesus into us - to receive eternal life (spiritually).

Hope this helps clarify some things. And thanks for asking.

Answer 4

If someone pushed you out of the way of a car and he himself was killed,would you have enough respect to honor that date?What's more,if that person was God in human flesh and then rose from the dead to live forever,thereby fulfilling the promise that we too will live forever,I'd recognize that date every year.
Jesus was in the "Upper Room" with his flesh on his body and his blood in his veins ,when he raised the cup of wine and said"Drink this is the blood of the New Covenant,do this in remebarance of me".
Do what?...Drink the wine in remembarance of what he was going to do for us on the cross.In John 6 ,he said that his followers must eat his flesh and drink his blood.They replied that was a hard saying,and some left him.He said,"The things I tell you today are Spiritual,the flesh profits nothing".
He was talking about entering in an realizing what his death and resurrection really was.
We take communion with wine or grape juice.As we drink it ,we think about how he was tortured and shed his blood so we wouldn't have to .As we eat the "broken" matzo bread,we remember how his body (not bones) was broken for us on the cross.
We do it in remeberance of Him.

Answer 5

We don't "celebrate" as in do a happy dance, but we mark the date with solemnity. We celebrate the victory over death and sin with the Feast of the Resurrection which you probably call Easter. We celebrate his great love for us.

If you think we drink his blood, then you belive in transubstantiation? Fascinating.

Those of us who have had loved ones die always remember the day. We celebrate their life among us.

Answer 6

First I want to say that I believe the BIBLE is the inspired and only infallible word of GOD.

And, in his word (Matthew 26:26-29) it says that during the last supper, Jesus took, blessed and broke bread. As he gave it to his disciples, he told them to eat the bread. It represented his body. Soon that body would be given for them in death. After Jesus had said a prayer of thanksgiving, he gave the cup to his disciples, telling them all to drink from it. The cup represented Jesus' "blood of the covenant" (v. 28) which would soon be "poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins" (v. 28). His death on the cross was a sacrifice in our behalf, rendered necessary because of our sins. Through what Jesus Christ did at so great a cost to himself, we may experience the ultimate deliverance, namely, the forgivensess of sins. This is what we are to remember when we partake of the bread that represents his body in the observance of the Lord's Supper. When a congregation gathers in fellowship at the Lord's table, it proclaims the gospel by its actions, and this proclamation of the Lord's death through the enactments of the Supper is to continue "until he comes." This the observance of the Lord's Supper calls us to remember and proclaim Christ's sacrificial death in our behalf. It invites us to celebrate his living presence. And it fixes our hope upon the victory that will attend his coming.

We do not celebrate just his death: We celebrate the birth, death, resurection and soon return of Jesus Christ.

Answer 7

The celebration in memory of Jesus called Easter is in memory of the sacrifice Jesus made for all of mankind. He was the last sacrifice, a sacrificial pure lamb. The celebration is not celebration of his death but to celebrate his power over death and Resurrection from death. The passover supper was given the night before his arrest, trial, scourging and Crucifixion. He then said, this is my body which is given for you. Eat it in memory of me. Then the wine was given and he said , this is my Blood it is spilled for you, drink of it in memory of me. The symbolism here was carried by the Catholic Church and perceived as becoming real when given in Communion service. Protestants accept the Eucharist upon communion but conceive the symbolism only. We don't think that it is really turns to his blood in our mouth. We only eat and drink in memory of Jesus as he asked. Perhaps on a deeper spiritual level, it does contain realism.
I hope this had some answer and value to your question. We perform the communion in remembrance of Jesus as he asked us to do.

Answer 8

Well....
In ireland we celebrate st patrick's deat date. We all like him.

Generally, when you want to celebrate someone's life, and you want to dedicate a day to them, the day they died is as good as any other.

I mean, it's not celebrating his death, it's celebrating his life, and remembering what he did. In much the same way you always remember people on the anniversary of their deaths.

Furthermore, his death is the central part of christianity, and we celebrate the fact that he died for our sins, in much the same way that one would celebrate any heroic and selfless deed.

Re the blood thing... If it's only as far as you're concerned, then why do you want other people to answer something that's made up in your head?

Answer 9

we dont like Jesus. we love Him.

we celebrate His return. He came back on Easter. He died for our sins so we could live in Heaven with Him. why wouldnt we celebrate that?

no one drinks His blood. we drink wine. its not actually His blood. just a metaphor.

Jesus told His disciples that the wine was His blood and the bread was His body. just a metaphor to show His love and stuff.

Answer 10

Not all christians do it. It is only the catholics who celebrate it, yet not on the right date because from year to year there are changes on dates. which is false teachings from the pople or priest.

Again, the catholics who are doing it including the supposed bread which came from the bakery. They have falsely interpreted the bible about the bread and blood of Jesus.

Blood should not be eaten nor drank by any mankind becasue the blood is sacred. and it is prohibited by God.

Answer 11

Hebrews 9:28 says "Christ was sacraficed once to take away the sins of many people." So he took away our sins so we can be reconciled to God. That is what we are celebrating. As to the blood, Jesus said in John 6:54 "who ever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life." He goes on to say in verse 63 "the words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life." To eat his flesh spiritually is to take in his words by reading them in the Bible and to drink his blood spiritually is to accept the sacrifice he made for your sin. How? you ask Acts 2:19 says "repent and turn to God so that your sins may be wiped out." Pray to God tonight and tell him your sorry for the things you've done wrong and tell him you believe in him. Ask him to send you some one to show you how to get to know him better and he will! I PROMISE! TEST ME ON THIS!
