You are mistaken. Christ did not say the bread was His body.
Yes he did. He said, of the bread, "This is my body." In the past tense, he said the bread was his body. That's simple grammar.

Nor does it mean "This is my body but only in a spiritual sense." "Take eat; this is my body" means that Christ gives us His natural body to be eaten.
You'll have to clarify yourself here. What do you mean by "natural body?" This sounds an awful lot like the Catholic doctrine. Surely you don'e embrace transubstantiation? Because it sounds an awful lot like it.

Also, in an above post, you seemed to imply you reject consubstantiation. Perhaps you could explain to us in detail what you do believe?
