Also according to Roman teaching it is by partaking of the Eucharist that the
heart is changed towards being like Christ.
ìÖit is in the sacraments, especially in the Eucharist, that
Christ Jesus works in fullness for the transformation of
men.î 8This too contradicts scripture. It is by abiding in Christ (allowing Him to be Lord

ìAbide in me (Christ), and I (will abide) in you.î John 15:4
ìTherefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old
things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.î
2 Corinthians 5:17
ìNow the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is,
there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass
the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from
glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.î
2 Corinthians 3:17-18
ìBut after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward

done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of
regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost.î Titus 3:4-5
