The Real Presence of Jesus Christ in the Sacrament of the Eucharist: Basic Questions and Answers Produced by the Committee on Doctrine of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and approved by the full body of bishops at their June 2001 General Meeting. The text is author-ized for publication by the undersigned. Monsignor William P. Fay General Secretary, USCCB

Introduction

The Lord Jesus, on the night before he suffered on the cross,

shared one last meal with his disciples. During this meal our

Savior instituted the sacrament of his Body and Blood. He did

this in order to perpetuate the sacrifice of the Cross throughout

the ages and to entrust to the Church his Spouse a memorial of

his death and resurrection. As the Gospel of Matthew tells us:

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing,

broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, "Take and eat; this is

my body." Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them,

saying, "Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of the cove-

nant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of

sins." (Mt 26:26-28; cf. Mk 14:22-24, Lk 22:17-20, 1 Cor 11:23-

25)

Recalling these words of Jesus, the Catholic Church professes

that, in the celebration of the Eucharist, bread and wine become

the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ through the power of the

Holy Spirit and the instrumentality of the priest. Jesus said: "I am

the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this

bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh

for the life of the world. . . . For my flesh is true food, and my

blood is true drink" (Jn 6:51-55). The whole Christ is truly pre-

sent, body, blood, soul, and divinity, under the appearances of

bread and wine—the glorified Christ who rose from the dead

after dying for our sins. This is what the Church means when

she speaks of the "Real Presence" of Christ in the Eucharist.

This presence of Christ in the Eucharist is called "real" not to

exclude other types of his presence as if they could not be un-

derstood as real (cf. Catechism, no. 1374). The risen Christ

is present to his Church in many ways, but most especially

through the sacrament of his Body and Blood.

What does it mean that Jesus Christ is present in the

Eucharist under the appearances of bread and wine? How

does this happen? The presence of the risen Christ in the

Eucharist is an inexhaustible mystery that the Church can

never fully explain in words. We must remember that the

triune God is the creator of all that exists and has the power

to do more than we can possibly imagine. As St. Ambrose

said: "If the word of the Lord Jesus is so powerful as to bring

into existence things which were not, then a fortiorithose

things which already exist can be changed into something

else" ( De Sacramentis, IV, 5-16). God created the world in

order to share his life with persons who are not God. This

great plan of salvation reveals a wisdom that surpasses our

understanding. But we are not left in ignorance: for out of his

love for us, God reveals his truth to us in ways that we can

understand through the gift of faith and the grace of the Holy

Spirit dwelling in us. We are thus enabled to understand at

least in some measure what would otherwise remain un-

known to us, though we can never completely comprehend

the mystery of God.

As successors of the Apostles and teachers of the Church,

the bishops have the duty to hand on what God has re-

vealed to us and to encourage all members of the Church to

deepen their understanding of the mystery and gift of the

Eucharist. In order to foster such a deepening of faith, we

have prepared this text to respond to fifteen questions that

commonly arise with regard to the Real Presence of Christ

in the Eucharist. We offer this text to pastors and religious

educators to assist them in their teaching responsibilities.

We recognize that some of these questions involve rather

complex theological ideas. It is our hope, however, that

study and discussion of the text will aid many of the Catholic

faithful in our country to enrich their understanding of this

mystery of the faith.
