In his homily during the modernist liturgy for the new order feast of Corpus Christi (June 23, 2019), Francis referred to “the Eucharist, Jesus who becomes bread, this simple bread that contains the entire reality of the Church” and he remarked that: “… there we find God himself contained in a piece of bread.” In the light of Catholic faith, both of these statements are false, heretical and blasphemous. It is true that God became man to be Jesus, Our Savior, but Jesus does not become bread. Quite the opposite: the Church teaches the doctrine of transubstantiation so that, by the power of God, the bread ceases to be and Our Lord Himself becomes present as God and Man, yet under the appearances of bread so that we might receive Him in Holy Communion. Martin Luther himself taught the error of “consubstantiation,” according to which Christ becomes present in the bread, but even Luther never suggested that Christ becomes the bread! Nor can God be contained in the bread, as though a genie in a bottle. The physical Body and Blood of Christ are present by the power of the Sacrament, but the Soul of Christ is present by virtue of its union with His Body, and His Divine Nature is present by virtue of Its hypostatic union with the humanity of Christ. Thus, the Holy Eucharist is the Sacrament which contains the Body and Blood of Christ – and the soul and Divinity of Christ in that those are united to the living Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.
