Nun's are "married" to Jesus. Although, this isn't a literal term, but a metaphor to describe their relationship with Christ and His Church.
For the purpose of sacrifice . The catholic alter also symbolises sacrifice of JESUS CHRIST.
Christians consume the body of Christ during communion to symbolically remember and honor Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, as well as to spiritually connect with him and with other believers.
The body of Christ is symbolically represented in the Christian faith as the church, which is made up of believers worldwide who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Christ Catholic Church was created in 1937.
Yes. According to the Catholic Church, it is the single, eternal sacrifice of Christ made present again by the celebrant, who acts 'in persona Christi' (in the person of Christ) by virtue of his ordination to the priesthood.
It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. The Mass, known as the Eucharist in Catholic theology, is the re-presentation of Christ's sacrifice of Himself on Calvary. Thus, in the Mass, Christ becomes truly present on the altar, as well as His sacrifice of Himself on Calvary, and the faithful are witnesses to His Sacrifice every bit as much as St. Thomas and the Blessed Virgin Mary as they stood on Calvary and watched Him expire on the cross. The technical term for the transformation of the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Christ is known as transubstantiation.
Christ Catholic Church - Pruter - was created in 1968.
There is no sacrifice of the mass in Protestant faith, for Jesus was sacrificed once for us on Calvary, so no other sacrifice is needed. You shall have to ask our Roman Catholic brethren on this question.
A priest in the Catholic Church is a man called from the faithful to be another Christ. He administers the sacraments, he preaches, but his main duty is to offer the sacrifice of the altar, to stand as Christ offering His Body and Blood to the Father for our salvation. He is to be Christ for the people and to bring them to Him.
The consuming of bread when it is used in a church setting is done to symbolically represent the body of Christ.
According to the Catholic Church, Jesus Christ.
