Eucharist


Hey guys. Today I’m going to talk about who can really receive the Eucharist. People who can receive the Eucharist are as follows: Catholics, other christians, and some exceptions. Next I’m going to talk about some exceptions, and then go into deeper why some can receive the eucharist and some cannot. Some exceptions, of those who can receive the eucharist are Protestants and Eastern Orthodox churches. The reasons why protestants can receive the eucharist are more limited than others. Protestants can only receive the Eucharist when the presence of death is eminent and they truly wish to repent and accept Jesus. eastern Orthodox has almost the same limitations but can also receive it in the acceptance of penance.
We as catholics can receive the Eucharist in many different areas. We can receive it before death in the anointing of the sick. We can receive it during penance. And we most often receive it during mass. There are some restrictions how we can receive it. We cannot receive it with a mortal sin on our conscience and cannot receive it without fasting for an hour before. Thanks guys bye.
