_005195795	Secular priest.	A short explanation of the Blessed Eucharist	1879		.txt	text/plain	4172	164	74	And yet we believe, because we know that God has told it; and if He walked on earth, and was seen by men, and lived and died amongst us in that servile form which he took, and promised to be- stow upon those whose feet He washed an earnest of his love—a bond of union for his people — a source of grace for His elect—a pledge of resurrection and of future glory—shall we disbelieve Him, because He said it was His Body, not cut into particles, as the gross Capharnaites thought, but veiled' as bread and wine, to nourish and exhilarate the soul? And as we believe “God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself,” though we could only see or touch the form of man in which He was ; so when he says, “This is my Body,” we can believe the truth of what He says, just as we could believe that he was hidden on the cross.	cache/_005195795.txt	txt/_005195795.txt
