One attack against the Catholic belief in the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist is that Jesus was crucified "once and for all" (Hebrews 10:10 & 14) but we crucify Him again every Mass. I've tried to explain that we are actually returning to Calvary each Mass, not re-doing it, but they usually can't wrap their minds around that. Jesus did similar "time travel" at the Last Supper when He brought His future sacrifice into the present moment.
Something interesting that is fun to show "Bible Christians" is that Our Lord desires incense and sacrifice to be offered continually:
For from the rising of the sun, even to its going down, My name shall be great among the Gentiles; In every place incense shall be offered to My name, And a pure offering; For My name shall be great among the nations," Says the LORD of hosts. (Malachi 1:11 NKJV)
The Hebrew for "a pure offering" is "minchah tahowr" which means a "sacrifice pure".
Did you know that at least four masses occur every hour in the world?
The prophecy of Malachi is fulfilled in the Catholic Church!!!
