(The Words of Institution) ingeniously allow Jesus Himself to tell us what He gives in the Sacrament and why He gives it. (page 52)
He tells us it is His Body and it is the Body given to us. That would be the same body which was born of the Virgin Mary and was nailed to the cross! He tells us it is His Blood, the Blood that stained the cross and spilled from wounds and wiped out the sins of the world. (page 53)
