Hi brother,
I tried to send you a personal message but it did not work so I have posted the reply instead.
Obviously, the bread and fruit of the vine does not literally become the blood and body of Jesus. Lord Jesus said that this service must be done in memory of Him and the fact that his life was given as a ransom for many.
Luke 22:19-20
19 And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.†20 And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.
John 6:53
53 So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.
Therefore, it is not about how it tastes but the life and strength of God we receive.
I saw your message about checking the accuracy of the timeline of prophets. Unfortunately, my historical knowledge regarding the matter is not great so I'm afraid I won't be of much help to you. However, I pray that Almighty God may guide you in all your work and help you to seek him wholeheartedly. If you have any more questions about the Bible, feel free to ask.
May God bless you, dear brother.
