In St. Longinus Church a Basilian monk said Mass with doubt of the true presence of Christ in his soul. Upon saying the words of Consecration the bread and wine turned into true living flesh. The blood coagulated into 5 pools, varying in size and shape.
This is a picture of the literal flesh and blood the was consecrated into the body and Blood of Christ. It is responsible of a strange phenomenon baffling scientist. Five blood "pellets" were resulted from the miracle, each varying in size and shape, but when weighed the all weigh the same, and when added to each other and weighed against, no matter how many pellets are weighed, they equal the same weight.
The most recent scientific research done on the material was in 1970 and was proved that...
- The flesh is real flesh. The blood is real blood.
- The flesh consists of the muscular tissue of the heart (myocardium)
- The flesh and blood belong to the human species.
- The flesh and blood have the same blood type (AB).
- In the blood, there were found proteins in the same normal proportions as are found in the sero-proteic make up of fresh, normal blood.
- In the blood, there were also found these minerals: Chlorides, phosphorous, magnesium, potassium, sodium and calcium. The preservation of the flesh and of the blood, which were
left in their natural state for twelve centuries (without any chemical preservatives) and exposed to the action of atmospheric and biological agents, remains an extraordinary phenomenon.
Christ day after day gives us his flesh and blood in accordance for our sins. He gives it to us freely, to accept or reject freely, and without hesitation. He simply asks for us to believe fully in him, and to conform ourselves to the incarnation. Celebrating Christ with doubt in our soul is much like entrusting your life to a serial killer. Foolish, and suicide. We should fully believe in Christ and his Church, and fully entrust our souls and will to them.
