Krissi Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 I believe, but am not certain, the logic goes something like this: 1. Passover. God saw the blood and spared the people who had sacrificed. 2. Jesus. Jesus/God's blood spared the people who believed. 3. Eucharist. The wine is the blood, or a symbol of it, which spared the people who participated in this "feast." This may be too reductionist. The idea, perhaps, is that Yahweh=Jesus=wine, and the sacrificing Israelites=believing Christians=sacrificing-symbolically Christians.
