Common Expressions: Eucharistic

Expressions Definition
Eucharistic adoration EucharistEucharistic adoration is a practice of the Roman Catholic Church in which the Blessed Sacrament is exposed to and adored by the faithful. When this exposure and adoration is constant (that is, twenty-four hours a day), it is called perpetual adoration. In a parish, this is usually done by volunteer parishioners; in a monastery or convent, it is done by the resident monks or nuns. (references)
Eucharistic discipline Eucharistic discipline is the term applied to the regulations and practices associated with an individual preparing for the reception of the Eucharist. Different traditions require varying degrees of preparation, which may include a period of fasting, prayer, repentance, and confession. As a general rule, the stronger the belief that the bread and wine of the Eucharist become the Body and Blood of Jesus (see Transubstantiation and Real Presence), the stricter the discipline. (references)
Eucharistic liturgy A Christian sacrament commemorating the Last Supper by consecrating bread and wine. Source: Wordnet 3.0 Copyright © 2006 by Princeton University. All rights reserved.
Eucharistic Miracle A Eucharistic Miracle is a miracle when, during consecration during the Catholic Mass, the bread and wine physically become the body and blood of Jesus Christ. Catholics believe that when the priest pronounces the words of consecration, the bread and wine actually become the body and blood of Christ, but retain the outward appearance of bread and wine. This is called transubstantiation, and differs from most Protestant Eucharistic theologies, which believe that the bread and wine are only symbols of Christ's body and blood. Eucharistic miracles often happen when people, mainly priests or monks, doubt the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. (references)
Eucharistic theology Eucharistic theology treats doctrines of the Holy Eucharist. It exists exclusively in Christian and quasi-Christian religions, as others generally do not contain a Eucharistic ceremony. An exception would be the theistic Satanists, some of whom recognise transubstantiation and consequently gather in Black Masses to desecrate the Sacrament, a practice which has decreased in frequency since the advent of neo-Satanic faiths. (references)
Historical roots of Catholic Eucharistic theology The historical roots of Catholic Eucharistic theology are the basis upon which a number of ecclesial communities, or churches, express their faith in the "bread of life" as given by Jesus, and are to be found in the Church Fathers, Scripture, the writings of Thomas Aquinas, and other early church writings and traditions.
