Questions from this subtopic

Each one with the model answer underneath.

1
Why do Catholics call the eucharist the source and summit of the Christian life?
Model answer
The phrase comes from the Second Vatican Council document Lumen Gentium. Catholics mean that all the Church's activity flows from the eucharist and leads back to it.
2
Define transubstantiation.
Model answer
Transubstantiation is the teaching that the bread and wine become the body and blood of Christ. The outward appearance of bread and wine remains unchanged.
3
What is the Real Presence?
Model answer
The Real Presence is the belief that Christ is truly present in the consecrated bread and wine. Catholics genuflect before the tabernacle for that reason.
4
Give two non-Catholic Christian views of the eucharist.
Model answer
Baptists and many evangelicals treat the bread and wine as symbols that recall the death of Jesus. Lutherans instead believe Christ is truly present with the bread and wine.
5
What is the sacrament of reconciliation?
Model answer
Reconciliation is the sacrament in which a Catholic confesses sins to a priest and receives absolution. Confession restores a person's friendship with God and with the Church.
