The Eucharist is the actual Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus
Christ, which He has established so that He may be with us always and
unite ourselves in the most intimate and spiritual manner through Holy
Communion. However, this can only be done if two conditions are met: you
truly believe, and you are in a state of grace (have been to confession
recently). Without those two conditions, then you are doing more than
wasting your time, you are calling condemnation down on yourself (1 Cor
11:29). The second (what unites us to one another) is that in our
baptism, and in our receiving Holy Communion (worthily) we become more
and more part of the Mystical Body of Christ on earth, i.e. the Holy
Catholic Church.
