TheRealPresenceInvolvesNo

Self-Contradiction DifferenceBetweenSubstanceand Accidents

Q.:Andregardingthedoctrineofthe RealPresence,wouldyoubegood enoughtoexplainhowtheEternal Godcanbecontainedinthewafer ofbreadweCatholicsadoreat BenedictionorreceiveinCommunion.Manyofmynon-Catholicacquaintancessimplycan'tseehow thisispossible.

A.:ThedoctrineoftheRealPresenceisundoubtedlyagreatmystery liketheCreation,theBlessedTrinity, andtheIncarnation,butitisnotimpossible,becauseitdoesnotimply anyself-contradiction.IfGodcan createtheuniverseoutofnothing, whycannotIlechangethesubstance 1,fbreadandwineintoHisBodyand Blood?ThetruefollowerofChrist doesnotaskhowcanthismangiveus HisFleshtoeatwiththeunbelieving JewI,Johnvi.,53),hutacceptsChrist's wordhumblyastheApostlesdid (Johnvi.,69,701.TheApostleswho hadwitnessedthetransubstantiation ofwaterintowineatCanainGalilee (Johnii.,1-Il),andthefeedingofthe fivethousandwithfivebarleyloaves andfishes(Johnvi..1-14'neverquestionedChrist'spowertochangebread andwineintoHisFleshandBlood.

Non-Catholicsdeclarethedoctrineof theRealPresenceimpossible,because theythinkitinvolvesaself-contradiction.Theysupposethatitrequires thesamethingtobebothbreadand notbreadatthesametime.Thisis nottheCatholicteachingAfterCon'ecrationthespeciesofbreadisnot reallybread,buttheBodyofChrist, forthesubstanceofthebreadhas beenchangedintothesubstanceof Christ'sBody.Whatisnotchanged isthe"accidentorthesensiblequalitiesofthebread;viz.,itscolour, taste."etc.Buttherealityofa thingliesinitssubstance,the111%19iblepartofit,notintheaccidents,or visiblepart.St.Cyrilstatedthis clearly:"Beingfullypersuadedthat whatseemsbreadisnotbread,even thoughitseemssc,tothetaste,hut Christ'sBody:andwhatseemswine isnotwineeventhoughthetaste willhaveitso,butChrist'sBlood" (Cat.iv.,91.

ThesubstanceofChrist'sBodyin theEucharisthasnoneofthesensible qualitiesofahumanbody;itisnot extendedsoastooccupyspace.Contrarytophysicallaws,astheCatechismoftheCouncilofTrentsays, "theysubsistofthemselves,inhering innosubject."Itwould,therefore, hewrongtosay:"TheBodyofChrist isround"pr"TheBloodofChristhas alightcolour,"fortheseexpressions aretobeusedwithregardtotheaccidentsalone.Thisiscertainlyamysteriousdoctrine,hardtounderstand, becausethereisnothinglikeitinall ourexperience.Butthemysteriesof Christianityareallunique,because theypertaintodivinethings.WeacceptthemonthetestimonyofGod John,v.9),andontheinfallible witnessofChrist'sdivineChurch. 'Q.:Theyagreethatthedoctrineof theRealPresencecontradictsthe evidenceofone'ssenses.Whatwe seeandtaste,theysay,ismerely breadandwine.

A.:ItdoesNlOTcontradicttheevidenceofthesenses,forwhatwesee andtasteaftertheConsecrationare theaccidents'orappearancesofbread andwine,whichhavenotbeenchanged Thesensestellnothingregard-

ingthesubstanceofbreadandwine beforeConsecration;theytellus nothingoftheoodyandBloodof ChrichwhichispresentafterConsecration.

Thesensesjudgeonlyofappearance, and,therefore,mayoftenleadusto makefalseinferences.Iapparently seethesunrisingintheEastandsettingintheWest,butsciencewithits Copernicansystemofastronomycorrectsthatmistake.Theunbelieving JewsawinChristonlytheman,the carpenter'sson)Matt.xiii.,55),but themiraclesJesuswroughtshould havetaughthimthefactofChrist's divinity.

Q.:AnotherthingtheycannotunderstandishowtheBodyofChristcan beinsomanyplacesatmac.How canChristbeinheaven,feysay, andatthesametimeinallthechurchesoftheworld?

A.:TheCouncilofTrenthasdefined againsttheReformersthismultilocationoftheBodyofChrist."For neitherarethesethingsmutuallyrepugnant-thatOurSaviourHimself alwayssitsattherighthandofthe Fathernheaven,accordingtothe naturalmodeofexisting,andthat, nevertheless,Heisinmanyother places,sacramentallypresenttousin llisownsubstance,byamannerof existingwhich,thoughwecanscarcely expressitinwords,yetbytheunderstanding,illuminatedbyfaith,wecan conceive,andoughtmostfirmlytobelieve,ispossibletoGod"(Sess.xiii cap.

KNOWYOURFAITHSERIES

....ARefresherCourseintheCatechism

Inthepresentinstructionwecome totheexplanationofthesecondarticleoftheCreed.Whatdoesthis articleteachus?

ItteachesusthattheRedeemer whomGodpromised,andsenttous, istheonlySonofGod,JesusChrist OurLord.Wesawinthefonloing instructionshowGodforetoldbythe prophetsWhomHeinspiredthemercifuladventoftheRedeemeraswell asthetimeandplaceofHisbirth Now,thisMessiaspromisedbyGod andforetoldbytheprophetsisJesus Christ,theonly-begottenSonofGod, OurLord.WhilsttheJewsarestill hopingandexpectingthepromised Messias,weconfessinthesecondarticdeofthecreedthatHeactuallyap pease's'inthepersonofourDivine SaviourJesusChrist,thereforethat God'spromisehasalreadybeenfulfilled.ThisRedeemerisnotacreature createdbyGod,butHeistheonly.begottenSonofGod.

WhatdoesthenameJesussignify?

ThenameJesussignifiesSaviour,or Redeemer.JesusisindeedourSaviour,forafterourfirstparentsbrought downuponusbysinmuchmisery andunhappinessofbodyandsoul, Jesusbroughtussalvation,namely, reconciliationwithGod,blessing,grace, isandpeace.Thisnamewasnotgiven toHimbyman,norbyaccidentmerely,butbythecommandofGod.

TheangelsaidtoMaryattheAnnunciation,"ThoushaftcallHisname Jesus;forHeshallsaveHispeople fromtheirsins."(Matt.1,21.) In HolyScriptureothernamesaregiven "toHimalso,buttheyonlyserveto remindusofthegracesofwhichwe havebecomepartakersthroughHim. Heiscalled,forinstance,theGood Shepherd,theWay,theTruth,the Life,MediatorandIntercessorwith theFather,SonofDavid,theWord thatwasmadeFlesh,etc.

WhatdoesthewordChristsignify!

ThewordChrist-inHebrewMessias-signifiesanointed..

WhyisJesuscalledtheanointed?

BecauseintheOldLawtheprophets,highpriests,andkingswere anointedwithoil,andJesusisour greatestProphet,Priest,andKing. ThewordChristoriginatesinthe Greeklanguageandsignifiesthesame astheHebrewwordMessias.Itisan officialandhonorablename.Inthe OldLawtheprophetswereanointed becausetheywereinmanyrespects %theambassadorsofGod.Thepriests andkingswereanointedbecausethe priestofferssacrificetoGod,andthe kingsruledthepeopleinGod'sstead.

JesusisthegreatestProphet,becauseHerevealsmysteries,butnot astheprophetsoftheOldLawdidby Divinerevelations,butinvirtueof HisDivineomniscience.

HeisalsothegreatestPriest,for s,henotonlysacrificedHimselfforus uponthecrossinabloodymanner, butHealsosacrificesHimselfdaily forusuponouraltarsinanunbloody manner.

IleisthegreatestKing,forasGod HeistheKingofkings,theSovereign towhomtheearthandallcreated thingsaresubject..HenceJesussaid, "AllpowerisgiventoMeinheaven anduponearth,"and"Mykingdomis notofthisworld."

NTheJewsthemselvescalledHim King,andPilatewroteoverHiscross, "JesusofNazareth,KingoftheJews."

Fromthename"Christ"isderived, too,thename"Christian."Weare thenalsoGod'sanointed,yetonly whenweliveasJesustaughtus,by wordandexample.

WhyisJesusChristcalledthe"only SonofGod"?

BecauseJesusChrististheonly trueandrealSonofGodfrometeo nity,ofonenatureandsubstancewith GodtheFather.Thismeansthatin JesusChristtheredwellthesameperfections,andinthesamedegreeasin GodtheFather.

Arewenot,then,alsochildrenof God?

Yes,wearechildrenofGod,butnot bynatureandfromalleternity;we areonlychildrenadoptedbygrace.

OuradoptionaschildrenofGodis onlyanemanationofHismercyand compassion.

HowdoweknowthatJesusChrist istheMessiasorRedeemerpromised byGod?

WeknowitbecauseinHimhasbeen fulfilledalltheprophetshaveforetold oftheRedeemer.

ThepopheciesoftheprophetsconcerningthetimeandplaceofHis birth,thecircumstancesofHislife, passionanddeath,weresoexactlyfulfilledinJesusChristthatnopossible doubtcanexistastowhetherJesus ChristwasreallythepromisedRedeemer.HenceHeHimselfsaidto theJews,"SearchtheScriptures,and thesamearetheythatgivetestimony ofMe:'(Johnv.,39.)

WhencedoweknowthatJesus ChrististheSonofGod,andtrue God?

Weknowit(1),fromtheprophecies;(2),fromthetestimonyofHis heavenlyFather;(3),fromHisown testimony;(4),fromtheteachingof theApostles;and(5),fromthedoctrineoftheCatholicChurch.

Whatdotheprophetssay?

TheycallthepromisedRedeemer "God--Godwithus,theSaintof Saints,theWonderful-theFatherof theworldtocome."

IsaiassaysofHim:"Takecourage andfearnot GodHimselfwill comeandwillsaveyou."Further, "Beholdavirginshallconceiveand bearasin,andHisnameshallbecalledEmmanuel"(Godwithus).

WhatisthetestimonyofHisheavenlyFather?

AtthebaptismofChristinthe.14,r dan,andatHistransfigurationon MountThabor,avoicefromheaven washeardsaying,"ThisismyBeloved Son,inwhomIamwellpleased."God theFatherHimself,therefore,has twicetestifielpubliclyaloudandsolemnlythatJesusChrististheSonof God.

WhatisthetestimonyofChrist?

I.ChristtestifiedthatlieistheSun ofGod,andtrueGod,likeHisFather.

(alJesussaid:"IandtheFather areone."(Johnx.,30.)

b)"Hethatseethms.seeththe Fatheralso."(Johnxlv.,9.)

1c)"Allthingswhatsoverthe Fatherhatharemine."Johnxvl.15.)

(d)"Whatthingshe(theFather) doth,thesetheSonalsodothinlike manner."(Johnv.,19.)

3.HesealedHistestimonywithHis death.WhenJesuswasabjuredbeforethetribunaltosaywhetherHe wastheSonofGodHesolemnly affirmedthatHewasChrist,theSon ofGod,thatHesatattherighthand ofGod,andthatHewouldcomeon thecloudsofheaven-anduponsins confessionHesuffereddeath.

WhatdotheApostlesteachofJesus Christ?

TheApostlesexplicitlyteach:

1.ThatJesusChrististrueGod.

St.Johnsays,"Weknowthatthe SonofGodiscome.Thisisthe trueGodandlifeeternal."The ApostleSt.Paulsays,"Christwh,is overallthingsGodblessedforeves''

2.ThatHepossessesallthefulness oftheGodhead,andtheinfiniteperfectionsofGod.St.Paulsays,"In Him(Christ)dwellethallthefulnessof theGodheadcorporally"-i.e.,substantially.InHim(Christ)wereall thingscreatedinheavenandon earth,visibleandinvisible,whether thrones,ordominations,orprincipalities,orpowers,allthingswerecreated byHimandinHim,and.Heisbefore all,andbyHimallthingsconsist.

3.Thatallcreaturesshouldadore Him."InthenameofJesusevery kneeshouldbow,ofthosethatarein heaven,onearth,andunderthe earth,andeverytongueshouldcwt. fessthattheLordJesusChristisin thegloryofGodtheFather.""Letall theangelsofGodadoreHim."

WhenJesuscalmedthestormon LakeGenesareth,theyallfelldown andadoredHim,saying,"Thouart trulytheSonofGod!"WhenJesus bowedHisheaduponthecross,the earthquakedandthesunwasdarkened,thenthepaganRomancenturioncriedaloud"Verily,thiswasthe SonofGod."

WhatdoestheCatholicChurch teachofJesusChrist?TheCatholic Churchhaseverbelievedandtaught thatJesusChrististrueGod,andof onesubstancewithGodtheFather; andindefenceofthisfundamental Christiandoctrine,shecomposed,at theCouncilofNice,aspecialcreed, andexcommunicatedthosewhotaught thecontrary.Theholymartyrsalso professedthisbeliefandsufferedwith joyindescribabletorments,evendeath itself,forit.Thedurationofthe Churchfor1900yearsisaproofofthe DivinityofJesusandHisteaching.

WhyisJesusChristcalledOur Lord?

JesusChristiscalled,andis,our Lord,(1)becauseasGodHeisthe LordandCreatorofHeavenandearth; (2)becauseasRedeemerHehas boughtuswithHisblood.Theblood ofJesusChristwastheransom,the price,withwhichwewerebought.In thiswaywebecomeHisproperty, thereforeHeisalsoourLord.

TheLayman'sPart

Thatthewhole-hearted,systematicandwell-organisedcooperationofthelaityisindispensable,ifanynoteworthyprogress istobeachievedintheconversionofournon-Catholicbrethren,is nolongergroundfordebate.Theimportanceofthelaymanwith hisopportunitiesforwidecontactsisbecomingincreasinglyevident.andhasbeenrepeatedlystressedbytheHolyFather.The questionthenisnolongeroneoftheexpediencyofthelayapostolate,butofitsproperorganisationandefficientexploitation.Linkedupwiththisideaisthefactthatthementalcomplexionofour generationisdecidedlyfavourabletovigorousapostolicactivity. OutsidetheChurch,menofgoodwillarebeingbuffetedaboutina turbulentseaofpseudo-science,philosophicsophistry,emotional religious"experience,"andthedeificationoffalsestandards.In Chesterton'saptepigram,manycannotdecidewhethertheyare beingimpelled"byadivinehopeoradevouringsuperstition." Amidallthisconfusion,oneVoiceisclear,insistentandauthoritative-.thevoiceoftheCatholicChurch.TheCatholiclayman, alivetotheconditionsthatsurroundhim,willbestimulatedto accepthisshareinbringingtohisfellowmennotonlysalvationbut evensanity.

Wemaysafelysaythatthelayman'sfirstqualificationmust bezealforthecauseofChrist.Thisfollowsquitenaturallyupon thefirstandgreatestCommandmentofcharity.Hewholoveshis neighbour,desiresmostearnestly,tohavehimwithinthe"one fold."TheLifeofOurLordwillperhapsstillmoreserveto awakenhimtohisgrandvocation."Liftupyoureyesandseethe countries,fortheyarewhiteeventotheharvest."Butzealalone willnotsuffice.Handinhandwithitmustgoknowledge.It wouldbeidletomaintainthattheaverageCatholicisintellectually squippedforthelayapostolate.Hisfaithissincere,butoftenhe isquiteunabletogiveanaccount,letaloneadefence,ofthefaith thatisinhim.Itispathetictothinkthatmanyremainunequippedforthissplendidwork,simplybecausetheydonot,orwillnot, readsuitableCatholicbooksandperiodicals.InEnglandand Americastudycirclesandclassesofapologeticshavemadestrikingadvances,andthegreatnumberofconvertsmustatleast tosomeextentbetraceabletothesewell-instructedlayapostles.

NowthattheoldProtestantismisgoneandthatsubjectivism hasbecome,moreorless,thenormalreligiousattitudeofnon Catholics,atremendousopportunityopensbeforeCatholics, throughCatholicAction,ofwinningthesepeopletotheFaithof Christ.Butwearenotaloneinthefieldofaction,norisolated inthepossessionofhisknowledge.Communism,itselfareligion andaphilosophyoflife,isverymuchalivetothepossibilitieshere andnowpresent.NorhavetheMarxistsremainedinidlespeculationthereon.Thebattleisalreadyjoined,andtheapostlesof materialismhavealreadymadeappreciableinroads.ButCatholic Action,too,isdemonstratingareal,ifbelated,renaissance.But whilethequalityofourworkersisexcellentandtheirzealunimpeachable,theirnumbersarepitiablyfew.UnlessmoreCatholic Actionistscomeforward,andcomeforwardquickly,thepasswill hesold."Prayye,therefore,theLordoftheharvest,thatHe maysendlabourersintoHisvineyard."

&B.C.,Leederville:

Q.:Howsoonafterbirthmusta childbebaptised?Isitalrightto postponetheBaptismforacouple ofmonthsinorderthatintending god-parentsmaybepresent?And wouldyoumindexplainingthedutiesandresponsibilitiesofgod-parents?

A.:Infantsshouldbebaptisedas soonaspossible.Apartfromparticulardiocesanprescriptions,itappears tobethegeneralview-andcertainly itisaverycommonpractice-thatan infantshouldbebaptised-withinabout aweekortendaysafteritsbirth. ManyCatholicsdeferBaptismfora fortnightoralittleover.However, adelaybeyondamonthwithout gravereasonwouldbeaserioussin. Waitingforintendinggod-parentsto arriveisnotasufficientreasonfor postponingBaptism,andinsucha caseaproxymightbearrangedfor them.Ifthereisnoprobabledanger tothechild,parentswouldnotbe guiltyofsinifthey.deferBaptisma littlebeyondthreeweeksattheoutside,butthepracticeofhavinganinfantbaptiSedwithinaboutaweekor tendaysofbirthistobestronglycommended,andindeedanearlierdate mayberightlyrecommended.

InconditionalBaptism,thegodparent-iftherewasone-ofthepreviousBaptismshould,ifpossible,be god-parentinthesecond.Apartfrom thiscase,nogod-parentisnecessaryin conditionalBaptism,butonemaylawfullybepresent.

A.:'I'heosohyisamodernformof pantheism,borrowedfromIndia,and popularisedintheWestsince1877by MadameBlavatsky,Mrs.AnnieBesant andColonelHenryOlcott.

Itrejects"theGodoftheChristians, i.e.,aPersonalGod,deniesthefact 4creation.andregardstheuniverse asthemanifestationoftheGreat EternalReality,or"thegreatrhythmicthrobbingoftheUniqueAll," whateverthatmaymean.Theworld consistsofseveninterpenetrating planes,andman,theMicrocosm,of sevendistinctparts,fourphysicaland threespiritual.Theterminologyof Theosophyisgrotesqueandfanciful, liketheterminologyoftheGnostics inthefirstagesofChristianity.

AccordingtoTheosophistsatdeath weloseourpersonalitybutnotour individuality.WithinfallibleprecisiontheMahatmastellusofsuccessivepurificationthroughvariousincarnations,whichusuallytakeplacetwice ineverytwenty-onehundredyears!
