Anointing, Last Supper (Part 2)

The Life and Teachings of Christ
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg

Steve Gregg discusses the Last Supper and the significance of Passover in Christianity. He emphasizes that Jesus established a new covenant with God through his blood and body, as part of the Last Supper. Gregg also critiques the Catholic Church's doctrine of transubstantiation, arguing that the idea of the Eucharist as the actual body and blood of Jesus was more of a political tool for church control over people rather than a spiritual truth. Finally, he touches on the betrayal of Judas and how the Bible portrays him as a bad guy who ultimately suffered a tragic fate.
