How long do Lutherans believe Eucharist remains Jesus' body and blood?
Answer: Some Lutherans believe that Christ remains present in the Eucharist so long as the assembly is gathered. In other words, once the congregation has left, Christ is no longer present in the consecrated bread and wine. Other (more traditional, Catholic-leaning) Lutherans believe that Christ remains present after the congregation leaves and even reserve the Eucharist (as do Catholics and Orthodox) to be taken to those who are homebound. Catholics believe that Christ is present when the congregation leaves, and the Eucharist is treated with great reverence. The Catholic Church teaches that the presence of Christ remains so long as the consecrated bread remains bread; once it has deteriorated Christ is no longer present.
