Therefore with the fullest assurance let us partake as of the Body and
Blood of Christ: for in the figure of Bread is given to you His Body, and in
the Figure of Wine His Blood; that you, by partaking of the body and blood of
Christ, might be made of the same body and the same blood with Him. For thus we
come to bear Christ in us, because His Body and Blood are diffused through our
members; thus it is that, according to the blessed Peter, “we become partakers
of the divine nature.” [2 Peter 1:4].
St. Cyril of Jerusalem
