The Eucharist: The Sacrifice of the Mass
Sadly, many people today have forgotten the real meaning of the Eucharist. A recent Gallup pole showed that 70% of Mass-going Catholics said they did not understand what the Eucharist was all about. Many Catholic theologians no longer believe Christ is present in the Eucharist. Most have no concept that the Mass is a sacrifice to appease God for sin.
The Eucharist: The Corporeal Presence of Christ
Sadly, many people today do not believe that the Eucharist contains the body, blood, soul and divinity of Christ. Catholic liberal theologians for the past 50 years have tried to eliminate this ancient belief from the Catholic Church. Many songs we sing today at the Mass contain words that reflect this attitude. Many Protestants think the Eucharist is blasphemous, and many of their theologians were influential in turning Catholics against the traditional view of the Eucharist.
