Transubstantiation - Hard to Believe?

Post by Denise »

If there is any one Catholic doctrine that people struggle with, it has to be transubstantiation – the teaching that, during the Mass, bread and wine become the body and blood of Jesus Christ.

The problems started during Jesus’ public ministry, as this Sunday’s gospel shows.

Why, then, would the Church institute a special feast - Corpus Christi - to highlight this challenging dogma?

Devotion to the souls in Purgatory contains in itself all the works of mercy, which supernaturalized by a spirit of faith, should merit us Heaven. de Sales
