The talk given by Ven. Fulton Sheen in the following link pertains to the laity:
- [**Confirmation** - Venerable Bishop Fulton J. Sheen (YouTube video)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gm3X1vJNZU)
It begins as follows:
“... The greatest untapped reservoir of spiritual power is to be found in the Christian laity.”
I would like to obtain a transcript of the audio, which is entitled *Confirmation*.
QUESTION: Does anyone know if a transcript of this audio is available online? I have been able to locate other transcripts of Ven. Sheen, but not this one.
Thank you.

If Calvary is seen as a Holy Mass and Jesus is the sacrifice then who presided as the priest celebrant?
In the sacramental offering of the Holy Mass, the priest presided acting as alter-Christus to offer the "bread & wine" to be consecrated to God.

In the sacramental offering of the Holy Mass, the priest presided acting as alter-Christus to offer the "bread & wine" to be consecrated to God.
Jesus is the High Priest, but in Calvary Jesus himself is the "sacrificial offering" to atone for the sins committed by all mankind.
My question is, If Calvary is a Holy Mass as the Catholic Church teaches and Jesus is the "sacrificial offering" then who is the priest that offer Jesus as a pleasing and acceptable sacrifice to the Abba Father?
Jesus offered himself as a sacrifice, did Jesus at the same time presided over the Holy Mass at Calvalry? I am quite confused at the scene at Calvalry, it would be fitting that another priest will offer Jesus "body & blood" to the Father as revealed thru the prayer taught by Jesus to St.Faustina;
>***"Eternal Father I offer Thee the body & blood, soul & divinity of our Lord Jesus Christ in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world."*** (Divine Mercy prayer)
It would seem that the Divine Mercy prayer is revealing that someone offered Jesus as a pleasing sacrifice to the Father at Calvary and not himself.
Reference:
>1. Pope Francis homily "The Mass as Calvary"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TsrAnicnTg4
> **"The mass means repeating Calvary".** (Pope Francis)

**NOTE:**
*The Last Supper is the First Sacramental Mass instituted by Jesus Christ as the Eucharistic Sacrifice.*
The Real Mass is the bloody sacrifice of the Jesus "real body & blood" at Calvalry and CCC1382 states that the "sacrifice at the Cross" is perpetuated in the "sacramental mass" to commemorate an unbloody sacrifice.
