Church is the work of Jesus Christ of salvation ... Mr. nations of salvation by Christ on the Cross for us, to submit himself to us every day through the Church and the Church is continuing along the prophetic work of Jesus Christ (education) and priesthood (salvation) and kings (the inheritance of the kingdom of heaven).

The church is a place oppose the presence of Jesus Christ in us "where he met two or three highest I should be there in their midst" (was 20: 18).

Hailing the church and therefore all the joy - when meeting - "Emanuel here in our midst now ... glorifies his father and the Holy Spirit."

It accepts the church ... There is the view of Jesus Christ and unite and speak with him by the Church is the Bride of Christ's body is sacred ...

Christ Church's head of the body of "Christ is also head of the church loyal body" (F 23:5), "which is the top body - the church - which is primitive" (Kuo 18:1).

The body of Jesus Christ oppose it very clearly in the mystery of the Eucharist.

"Cup pond by Abarca, the company is not the blood of Christ?, Who broke bread, Alice is a body of Christ?" (1 Ko 16:10).

Hence the strong link between church and the Eucharist .. Both are the body of Jesus Christ .. Church Body of Christ to which we belong as members ... Eucharist and the body of Jesus Christ, who sometimes eat as "we, many bread, one body and one, because we all share in one bread" (1 Ko 17:10).

Church and the Eucharist:

Church and found the secret of the Eucharist during its existence and won the true during this holy mystery ...
The Eucharist is also the sacrifice of the church .. When he met the believers ... The meeting to break bread (criticism of the Lord's body and blood), hear about the early church: "they attend to the education of the Apostles and the company and break bread and prayers" (blood 42:2).

"Every day they attend the same structure and one (prayer Psalms), and small groups (the Eucharist) in homes, their meals (Tagab) with joy and simply said" (blood 46:2), "In the first week, as students were gathered To break bread "(blood 7:20).

And Jesus Christ himself who provides the sacrifice of his hand in his church every day, as is the priest, offering a God who accepts sacrifice ...

"This is Bubba, who accepted the same sacrifice on the cross for the salvation of our species" Alzbha anniversary is still ongoing and a sacrifice in the church ..

The Eucharist is not a repetition of the Red Cross of Christ, but a continuation and extension of an effect.

The Church sees her bridegroom beloved submit the same by the altar every day ... Encouraged by the progress of her life to God and praise and Sanski service and martyrdom we also draw strength to the martyrdom of sacrificing the Eucharist.

The "We love him because he loved the first" (1 U 19:4).

The life of Jesus Christ to us as a grain of proof "God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so as not to destroy both believe in it but have eternal life" (Jn 16:3).

We and our life with Crucified proof of our love him ...

Cross to bear this church every day and follow Jesus Christ ... Manifested in the sacrifice of the Eucharist was admitted to the altar, where Algeljth and live with him to heaven ... We offer him ... Repentance refraction heart, and offer him the skill of the body, self and soul, and offer him a body drop death on the cross fasting, we kept ourselves in Almaty for it every day ...

As well as enter the church to their deaths, sacrificing carrier with a simple (from bread, wine and water) provided proof of thanks and acceptance of God's grace in our lives ... The proof of love and recognition that God is the owner of these gifts "bring you Aqrabenk Who you."

Church and ascertain that it has not yet provided little ... What is fasting? What is the value of his players? .. How speak about purity of the body or tired struggler?

Therefore does not satisfy the church only Tshamala her bridegroom to the divine altar sacred divine we have nothing to offer non-Jesus Christ himself, which is the life of the world ..

On the altar as the body of the church recognizes Jesus Christ passion, and we feature mother holders of its members .. Ja 'alan baptism and the Prince of members .. The handling his body and his blood made .. Grow days days to measure the stature of Jesus Christ fill .. Church one:

The body of Jesus Christ's body and one .. Is everywhere, but the body of one .. The every day but the body of one ..

So realize that the church and one League ... All the massacres in the world is the altar and one .. All churches in the world church and one (of the remotest corners of the globe to Kasi) .. All the priests in the world, representing a priest is one of our Lord Jesus Christ .. Which is the body with his hand in every Mass everywhere and at all times and with all people.

This is the secret of our inquired with one another in Jesus Christ ..

How should one of bread and wheat collected hundreds of beads in one unit ..

God mystery of the Eucharist in the church to collect one "We all make us eligible to approach any of Jesus from Jerusalem to clean ourselves and our bodies and our souls; To be one body and one spirit, we share the legacy with all those saints who have been since the start" Mass Kabasele.

"We are many, we bread, one body and one, because we all share in one bread" (1 Ko 17:10), "So many people we are one body in Christ and members of some other, each one of the other" (Rowe 5:12).

"Because he is also the body is one, and has many members and all members of one body if they are many One body as well as Christ also" (1 Ko 12:12).
