	Mass (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		Mass is the setting, either polyphonic or in plainchant, of the liturgy of the Eucharist.
		The term most commonly refers to the mass of the Roman Catholic church, whose Western traditions used texts in Latin from about the 4th century to 1966, when the use of the vernacular was mandated.
		In the 17th century these two styles are found, sometimes even juxtaposed, in the Ordinary of the mass settings, along with the use of the concertato principle: one or more solo voices or instruments, in running scale passages, that contrast with the whole choral and instrumental ensemble.

	Mass
		In the Roman rite Mass was celebrated in Latin from an early period until the reforms of the Second Vatican Council, which allowed for the use of vernacular languages, and which emphasized congregational singing and permitted communion in the forms of both bread and wine (previously the congregation had received only the bread).
		Mass is the ritual of chants, readings, prayers, and other ceremonies used in the celebration of the Eucharist in the Roman Catholic church.
		The pontifical Mass (solemn Mass of a bishop) is less elaborate, although besides deacons, subdeacons, thurifers (incense bearers), and acolytes, the bishop is also assisted by his familia (family), assistants who are responsible for taking care of his regalia (solemn vestments) and insignia (miter, crosier, and pontifical cross).

		Synopsis: The beginning of the Mass usually begins with a hymn and an exchange of greetings between the priest and the congregation.
		Synopsis: This is the center of the Mass where, it is believed, the bread (called a host) and the wine undergo the miracle of transubstantiation.
		Other critics have alleged that the celebration of Mass according to the new Missal (Novus Ordo called by some) is unattractive and unappealing, and lacks the degree of ceremony and ritual that marked its predecessor.

		Moreover there are still certain cases in the Roman Rite, obviously of an archaic nature, where a litany occurs at the place of the Kyrie.
		In the Mass, the three groups of invocations are sung by the choir immediately after the Introit.

	Latin Mass Magazine, in support of traditional Roman Catholicism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		In 1969 a new rite of Mass was promulgated in which, to paraphrase the bishops of the province of Westminster, prayers and ceremonies in previous use were subtracted, and the existing rite was remodeled in the most drastic manner.
		Thus at the beginning of Mass, at the moment of Holy Communion, and at the conclusion of Mass, breaches with tradition were mandated that were certain to impose themselves upon the consciousness of the faithful.
		Where the Mass continued to be offered in Latin by a conservative priest facing the altar and without the Prayer of the Faithful, the congregation could continue to use their pre-Vatican II Missals and would notice only the omission of Psalm 42, the Last Gospel, and the new formula for Holy Communion.

	Why the Roman Catholic Mass and the Doctrine of Transubstantation are Idolatry by John Knox
		Roman Catholics claim that the Church has power to set up, or invent new ways of honouring God as it sees fit, and God accepts them, but this is clearly not the truth.
		What spirit tells us that the Mass is a sacrifice for the sins of the living and the dead, the Spirit of God or the spirit of man? The Catholics shamelessly claim Peter and John celebrated the first Mass, but they have not one shred of Scriptural proof.
		In the Mass, the words of the Gospel are merely used as a cloak, a mask to hide the evil idolatry beneath.

	The Roman Catholic Mass Refuted - the Eucharist is Not Jesus!
		Roman Catholic dogma states that the mass is necessary for salvation.
		The Roman Catholics say redemption is not finished, it is not done, and that they must re-create and partake in the mass in order to apply the work of Christ's redemption.
		Essentially the Mass is the key element in a false, allegedly "Christian" religious system, whose actual, unstated purpose is to hold people captive to the system by claiming that salvation is partly found through this church controlled, mysterious ritual.

		Well, we do not call our worship at the Lord's Table "the Mass," but what believing Protestant Christian does not immediately recognize the truth of that and want his or her worship always to be that and to have that effect.
		One's standing either with or against the Roman church was, in many cases, defined by whether he joined in the rejection of these two doctrines of transubstantiation and the sacrifice of the mass.
		The history of Holy Scripture and of the Christian church is the history the church's understanding of her relationship to God and the way of salvation being corrupted by theories and practices the Bible does not teach.

		Now the Mass is the center of the whole Divine Office; we even believe it would be possible to show that at one time the first part of the Mass was the most eloquent and, indeed, the only mode of expression of this official prayer.
		Sometimes Mass was celebrated in the catacombs on the outskirts of Rome, and this was especially the case on the anniversary days of the death of a martyr, when it was probably said on the tomb in which his relics reposed.
		Indeed, at the beginning, it was not, as it is to-day, consecrated to the Mass alone.[14] It is a doxology in honour of the Father and the Son.

		Some of the greetings and prayers spoken by the presider (the priest or bishop) at each Mass are also included, in order to help you understand the structure and flow of the Mass more fully.
		The "Order of Mass" is based on the Missale Romanum (The Roman Missal, revised by Decree of the Second Vatican Council and published by authority of Pope Paul VI).
		When it is used, the Penitential Rite is omitted, and the Mass continues with the Gloria (on most Sundays and solemnities) or with the Opening Prayer (during Advent and Lent, and on weekdays).

	The 1962 Missal is NOT the Traditional Roman Mass!
		For the traditional Roman rite this distinct characteristic is the Roman Canon.
		In like manner the Roman Canon is a fixed standard of what the Roman Mass is. Despite all of the changes and developments that have occurred down throughout the centuries of the Roman rite's existence, one element has remained fixed and unchanged since the earliest days of the Church's recorded history: The Roman Canon.
		In the traditional Roman Mass, on days of lower rank, in addition to the collect of the day, the collects of Our Lady, Our Lady and All the Saints, Against the Persecutors of the Church, For the Pope, or For the Faithful Departed, etc. are recited.

		The first thought, given the long history of hit-pieces in This Rock magazine, was that it had been done to see if I would explode and provide CA with “fodder” to use to further their “James White is a nasty man, don’t listen to him, please” campaign.
		I discussed it with some others (including one Roman Catholic via IRC), and got various theories as to what the motivation would be for having a mass said for me at the headquarters of Catholic Answers.
		The Roman Mass is not a “re-presentation” of that one sacrifice, as you claim, for it does not result in the perfection of anyone.

	The Roman Catholic Mass (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
		According to Catholic doctrine, the mass is a re-sacrifice of Christ in which the bread and wine actually become the body and blood of Christ when it is blessed by the Catholic priest.
		This means the wafer used in the mass is to be worshipped as Almighty God, both when it is offered during the mass and afterward when it is placed in a little tabernacle until the next mass.
		While certain forms of the Mass have changed since Vatican II (it can be said in the vernacular instead of Latin and many prayers are omitted), the dogma of the Mass being a re-sacrifice of Christ has not changed.

	The Roman Mass
		For hundreds of years, Christians were persecuted by Roman authorities; however, during the fifth century, the once-underground Christian Church became not only tolerated—but formally established as the official church of Rome.
		The prayers of the Mass Ordinary were among the most important musical texts of the Middle Ages and all subsequent historical eras.
		The Mass was not the only sacred service in the Roman liturgy: a series of eight shorter daily prayer services known as the Divine Office (or "The Canonical Hours") was also developed during the Middle Ages.

		For instance, we take strong issue with the doctrine of transubstantiation, which teaches that the substance of the bread and wine is actually transformed into the literal body, blood, soul, and even the divinity of Jesus Christ during the Mass.
		On the Catholic Mass, that’s the CRI Perspective.
		A good diiscussion of this issue can be found in Roman Catholics: Agreements and Differences (Baker) by Norman Geisler and Ralph MacKenzie (B196/$25).

	IS ANIMAL SACRIFICE TO BECOME PART OF ROMAN MASS?
		According to Archbishop Buti Tlhagale of Bloemfontein, plans to include African pagan rites during the Mass is in response to the Vatican's invitation to "inculturate" Catholic rites” (article by Thomas Horn —www.worthynews.com).
		Roman Catholicism readily admits they have no problem incorporating pagan ritual into their worship to God.
		And by doing this, she set the path that would lead Archbishop Buti to request animal sacrifice in the RCC Mass and ancestor worship to be accepted.
