It means that, after the words of consecration are pronounced the ENTIRE substance of the bread and wine is gone and Our Blessed Lord, Body and Soul, Humanity and Divinity, is now present in His Risen State. Only the appearance of Bread and Wine remain, the reality is that it is entirely and remains entirely God.

How the Eucharist is Jesus?

Jesus is present under the appearance's of bread and wine. Jesus knew it would be hard for us to eat actual human flesh drink human blood. here is some information about the Eucharist and how Jesus is truly present (see below).Catholic AnswerThe Eucharist is Jesus: Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, through a miracle called transubstantiation. In other words, when Jesus pronounced the words, "This IS my Body" over the bread at the Last Supper, the entire substance of the bread ceased to exist, and the entire substance of Jesus' Body now exists there under the "accidents" (philosophy word to mean appearance) of the bread. Re-read the sixth chapter of St. John's Gospel closely, the entire thing, notice that it starts with Jesus feeding the five thousand, this is a "figure" of the Eucharist, then He walks on water to prove to His disciples that He is master over the elements, then He starts the discourse on the Eucharist, including answering the objections - over and over again - of the disbelieving Jews..When it comes right down to it, we really truly do not understand the "HOW", all we really know is that Jesus is God, and that He told us that this is His Body, and so if we are real Christians, we believe what He told us; and the Church has taught and believed this from the very beginning.

If Christ is present now I guess we would not need the Eucharist because His living presence would suffice all our lack. So, it is the Eucharist that builds that inner spiritual craving and intimacy in us with the Lord. . Likewise, it is the Eucharist that will lead us toward the Kingdom where he Himself reigns.

When was the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist instituted?

Catholic AnswerOur Blessed Lord instituted the Most Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper on Holy Thursday, the night before He gave His life for us on Calvary. from Pocket Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J., Doubleday c 1980, 1985Eucharist. The true Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, who is really and substantially present under the appearances of bread and wine, in order to offer himself in the sacrifice of the Mass and to be received as spiritual food in Holy Communion. It is called Eucharist, or "thanksgiving", because at its institution at the Last Supper Christ "gave thanks," and by this fact it is the supreme object and act of Christian gratitude to God.Although the same name is used, the Eucharist is any one or all three aspects of one mystery, namely the Real Presence, the Sacrifice, and Communion. As Real Presence, the Eucharist is Christ in His abiding action of High Priest, continuing now to communicate the graces He merited on Calvary; and as Communion, it is Christ coming to enlighten and strengthen the believer by nourishing his soul for eternal life.
