Spiritual Communion is good, but we ha e been given MORE than that! (Think of the difference of a platonic marriage vs. a consummated marriage)! Christ established the priesthood and gave us the gift of Himself in the Eucharist. i.e. Holy Communion---the bread of angels to FEED OUR SOULS. Without the priesthood and the Holy Catholic Mass, we would have NO physical presence of Christ on earth. Christ, Himself, gave us the example to attend public worship, as He went to temple. The holy mass is the representation of Christ's sacrifice on Calvary. All Christians ( and Jews ) should be obedient to the Commandments, including keeping the Lords day holy. While we can worship God anywhere, as Christians, we are called to follow His example, which was regular public worship, Think of the Last Supper, the feast of Passover--all traditions to help us come together and thank God for all He has done .
