Ghost body and blood: Christian Reaction!!

Vin and Sori tackle an early ghost song

[@saaakuraslooot]

who else remembers when Ghost used to incorporate a communion during their rituals?

[@samporter7018]

One of their more underappreciated songs that hook is so damn catchy its like if the Beatles went to hell and made a record

[@rorrocofreu]

You two are the only Christians that I really like, because you are open to listening to this type of music ... most Christians would never accept listening to it, greetings from Chile

[@ghostyx9699]

One of the most underrated Ghost tracks, one of my favorites off the Infestissumam album....and in true Vin & Sori fashion, I come for a song reaction and stay for the 30 min theological talk in regards to transubstantiation. Great work and stay safe!

[@Vahisofficial]

Still their best album.

[@neonspec]

Yeah it's an underrated song. I think it's because Infestissumam has so many of their most iconic tracks (Year Zero, Monstrance Clock, Ghuleh/Zombie Queen) that Body and Blood gets left out sometimes. It's a great one though. Depth of Satan's Eyes is underrated too.

[@BlizzAz]

The look on Sori's face at hearing "Defecate" was hilarious.

[@SMOKETHECONQUEROR]

[@diegodejesus2544]

@Mister Skarred yes but when you eat after you poop so the apostle poop jesus 😂😂😂

[@liminal_entity1331]

The album Infestissumam has an underlying theme of the presence of the Antichrist, just as the previous album had a theme of Antichrist prophecy. The cover depicting a baby laying inside of an arena is, thus, a depiction of the Antichrist. Notice how the arena can double as a manger? Papa Emeritus (Tobias) is the prophet of his coming, thus why his image looms over the baby in a heralding manner with his arms outstretched towards the viewer.

[@pipschannel1222]

I was going to say the same. That's one hell of a baby ;-) Ghost's first three album themes are in chronological order and to complete the story: Meliora, the third is about the absence of god (hence the title of the song Deus in Absentia). Tobias' explanation of the title: There's supposed be be a questionmark after Meliora, in the sense of 'is life on earth better without God?' once again proving he's not at all against religion in general (He's not an actual Satanist as he mocks actual satanists in a similar fashion) but asks the right questions about human behavior, especially in groups, invoking thought and self reflection. If this takes a little mockery, so be it.. The band's performance is more a form of entertainment and something for people to come together and enjoy than it is to be taken seriously. Anyone who still doesn't get should be doing a little more self reflection to be able to meet with the underlying message intellectually :-)

[@austinwilliams3305]

This song is from the Infestissumam album that's about the birth and rise to power of the Antichrist so the songs reflexively make fun of Christianity and tells a story of a twisted messiah, possibly why they said he came out of a casket instead of a tomb as it may have been focused on the Antichrist at that point of the song

[@isispzl8757]

React to Witch Image! :( Oh and if you want something different from Tobias, you can check out some songs of his other projects: House of Affection (solo song), and Hungry are the Damned (from his previous band Repugnant)

Is a math teacher just "being a dick" when he tells Sally that 2+2=5 isn't correct?

[@kimlayman4742]

Communion for me is about reflection of all what God & Jesus has done in our lives. About what Jesus went through on all of his suffering. Body and Blood is one of my all-time favorite Ghost songs. I love all of Ghost's music. Great score you gave this song. A 10 for me,as I love all of their songs. ♥️♥️♥️

[@KaaponeAtael]

If you were looking at the cover art for the song, take notice that every song has it's own and all of them were drawn by Zbigniew M. Bielak - Polish dude who draws everything for Ghost and his drawings are really, really good. But if you saw a baby on St. Peter's square - that's the album cover, song has a different one.

[@MetalMitAlex]

I went from the Protestant view to the Catholic view. Now I see Communion as the Lamb of God on the altar as prefigured in the OT sacrifices. Christ on the Cross brings us back to the Garden of Eden, He is the Fruit of the Tree of Life on the Cross. The new Adam's Bride, the Church comes from His rib as His side is pierced and the sacrament comes from His side. Then He rises like Adam after His sleep/death to see His bride and later marry the Bride in revelation. Greetings from Germany

So, since Christians are still partaking in Communion, that means Jesus hasn't returned yet. Which also means that the tribulation hasn't happened yet, which therefore means that Nero wasn't the Anti-Christ, despite Vin's protestations to the contrary.

[@jhamilton1007]

Honestly, I think intent goes above interpretation and all that really matters is that you are doing what you believe the scripture is telling you to do, and most of it is without right or wrong.

[@jhamilton1007]

The way i see communion, is that when partaking in it, you are participating in the relationship of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It's not that you become like God, but that you are one with the Holy Triune.

[@mr.vizard4015]

More Ghost

[@dansweet6793]

For me being a Ghost fan and a Christian, I always saw communion as a kind of tradition, for example, we know Santa Claus was based off of a Saint that delivered toys to nearby towns and we carry the tradition with the jolly guy in a red suit and ho ho ho. I go to a non denominational church and we hold communion once a month to carry on the tradition of the last supper. I never believed the catholic view, no disrespect, I grew up catholic but we left for certain reasons. But the wonderful thing about GHOST and metal in general you have Christians, agnostics, atheist coming together in a time of such division. I don't force my beliefs on anyone, I treat people how I would like to be treated, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

When I was 15 in February 1991 I had a near-death experience and saw a tunnel of divine light. I refused the light, thinking of my family and woke up to see a crucifix made of that same divine light hovering in front of me. Jesus Christ then spoke to me and said these exact twelve words "Though you choose not to come, I will always be with you." He promised me eternal salvation with no mention of doctines about wine or bread. Believe in the saving grace of God and stop getting caught up in stupid doctrines. Would a loving Father doom you to hell because you guessed wrong?
