Book Description

Excerpt from The Nature of Christ's Presence in the Eucharist, or the True Doctrine of the Real Presence Vindicated in Opposition to the Fictitious Real Presence, Vol. 2: Asserted by Archdeacon Denison, Mr. (Late Archdeacon) Wilberforce, and Dr. Pusey Son our Saviour Jesus Christ. And what renders this pas sage much more significant is the fact (which I shall presently notice more particularly), that it was altered to the expressions now found in it from words that might seem to imply that all received the Body and Blood of Christ. But the most significant evidence derivable from the Com munion Service on this subject, is, I think, to be found in the alterations made from the first Liturgy of 1549 in the revision Of 1552, and continued in subsequent revisions to which therefore I shall now proceed to direct the attention of the reader. It will be found that in the Second prayer-book of Edw. VI. (that of and the subsequent ones, all those expressions in the first prayer-book, published in 1549, which might seem to indicate, that the presence of the Body and Blood of Christ was to be looked for in the consecrated elements, or as so present that all the communicants indiscriminately partook of that Body and Blood, are carefully expunged or altered.

The Nature of Christ's Presence in the Eucharist, Vol. 1


Book Description

Excerpt from The Nature of Christ's Presence in the Eucharist, Vol. 1: Or, the True Doctrine of the Real Presence Vindicated in Opposition to the Fictitious Real Presence Asserted by Archdeacon Denison, Mr. (Late Archdeacon) Wilberforce, and Dr. Pusey; With Full Proof of the Real Character of the Attempt Made by Those Author On the importance of the subject of the following Work, there can be no difference of opinion. It would seem to follow, that it is of equal importance to preserve the public mind free from serious error respecting it. And when errors of a grave character are being widely and earnestly disseminated, a public discussion of the subject, an endeavour to prove the true character of the rite, and a refutation of the erroneous notions inculcated respecting it, are due to the cause of truth. I cannot, therefore, at all sympathize with the feeling of those who profess to think the subject too sacred for public discussion; and I confess that I cannot free my mind from the notion, that the hope of some advantage accruing to certain doctrines from a veil of mystery being thrown over the Eucharistic rite, is very near the foundation of such a feeling. No public discussion of the nature of the rite, such as our Lord intended it to be, could lead to anything painful to a Christian ear. And if the errors and superstitions with which man has overlaid it produce that tendency, let them bear the blame; but let not the cause of truth suffer by our unwillingness to vindicate it, because men have encumbered it with notions which make its discussion painful. The doctrine treated of in the following Work was the great question controverted between the Romanists and our early Reformers.

The Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist


Book Description

The Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist by Vijay Martis This comprehensive guide explores the doctrine of the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist, a foundational tenet of Catholic theology. The book delves into the scriptural, historical, theological, and liturgical aspects of this doctrine, highlighting its significance in Catholic faith and practice. Key Highlights: - Scriptural Foundations: The book examines the biblical accounts of the Last Supper and Jesus' teachings on the Eucharist, particularly in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, to establish the scriptural basis for the Real Presence. It also draws on St. Paul's writings, especially in 1 Corinthians, to underscore the real nature of Christ's presence in the Eucharist. - Historical Development: The doctrine's historical evolution is chronicled, from early Christian writers like St. Ignatius of Antioch and St. Justin Martyr to the systematic explanations of St. Thomas Aquinas and the reaffirmations at the Council of Trent. This historical context emphasizes the continuous tradition that supports the Real Presence. - Theological and Liturgical Aspects: The concept of transubstantiation is explained, detailing how the bread and wine become the actual body and blood of Jesus Christ during the Mass. The role of the priest and the sacramental words are highlighted, along with the elements of the Eucharistic liturgy, such as the Liturgy of the Word and the Liturgy of the Eucharist. - Spiritual Implications and Devotions: The Eucharist is shown to be a source of spiritual nourishment, fostering union with Christ and contributing to the sanctification of the faithful. Various devotions like Eucharistic Adoration, processions, and perpetual adoration are discussed, reflecting the deep reverence and adoration that Catholics have for the Real Presence. This book is essential for: - Catholics seeking to deepen their understanding of the Eucharist and its central role in their faith. - Theologians interested in the historical and scriptural foundations of Catholic doctrine. - Anyone looking to explore the spiritual implications and devotional practices surrounding the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. By combining historical, theological, and liturgical insights, this book offers a profound exploration of the Real Presence, enriching the reader's understanding and reverence for this sacred sacrament.
