ESSAY ON: Eucharist Comparison

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: A 5 page research paper/discussion of the meaning of the Eucharist. Christians, of all denominations, Roman Catholic, Protestant or Greek Orthodox, agree that the primary sacraments, specifically baptism and the Eucharist, form symbolize their common and fundamental beliefs and, in essence, the church itself (Senn 288). Through the power of the Eucharist and the act of eating and drinking together, this social rite of sharing a meal brings the congregation into communion with each other; however, communion is much more than a social ritual, as it is also associated with the gift of “grace” that brings the “believer into a saving relationship with God in Christ” (Senn 288). As this suggests, by examining the meaning and celebratory specifics of the Eucharist in the various branches of Christianity, it becomes clear that while specifics of the rituals associated with the Eucharist differ, the fundamental theological meanings of these sacraments are very similar. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
