The Holy Eucharist

22 April 2024

In the holy Lord’s Supper, we do not just receive bread and wine. Rather, by means of the blessed bread we simultaneously receive the true body, and by means of the blessed wine, the true blood of Christ—as is to be concluded from the words of institution. But then Christ’s body and blood is personally united with His Godhead. It is the holy Temple in which the entire fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily.
