The Jewish Roots of the Eucharist - Brant Pitre

Dr. Brant Pitre on "Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist". In this presentation, you will explore the Eucharist as the New Passover, the New Manna from Heaven, and the mysterious New 'Bread of the Presence.' If you are looking to deepen your faith in and understanding of the inexhaustible treasure that is the Eucharist, then this talk is for you. In this exciting talk, Dr. Pitre shines the light of the Old Testament and ancient Judaism on the words and deeds of Jesus to reveal the amazingly Jewish roots of the Eucharist. Using his in-depth knowledge of Jewish messianic expectations, Dr. Pitre shows how the hope for a New Exodus and the coming of the Messiah proves that Jesus really did intend to give us the Eucharist, and it is nothing less than the gift of Himself, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.

Exodus 12:8-10 They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it. (9) Do not eat any of it raw or boiled with water, but roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts. (10) And you shall let none of it remain until the morning, anything that remains until the morning you shall burn.

The Mass Explained - Fr. Larry Richards

Fr. Larry Richards explains the biblical foundations of the Mass which God created as a sacrament of great importance.

If you don´t go to mass is because you don´t realize that it´s costing God´s his life. God is giving everything for love to us and right from the very beginning, since the creation on time, since the fall of men, God is always been preparing us for this great sacrament.

Gen 22:2-8. He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Mori'ah, and offer him there as a burnt offering upon one of the mountains of which I shall tell you." (3) So Abraham rose early in the morning, saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and his son Isaac; and he cut the wood for the burnt offering, and arose and went to the place of which God had told him. (4) On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes and saw the place afar off. (5) Then Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the ass; I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again to you." (6) And Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering, and laid it on Isaac his son; and he took in his hand the fire and the knife. So they went both of them together. (7) And Isaac said to his father Abraham, "My father!" And he said, "Here am I, my son." He said, "Behold, the fire and the wood; but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?" (8) Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they went both of them together.

The Secrets of the Eucharist - Vinny Flynn

Vinny Flynn talk about “The Secrets of the Eucharist” Based on the book "The 7 Secrets of the Eucharist"

• Jesus is alive
• Christ is not alone
• There is only one mass
• It is not just one miracle
• We don´t just receive
• Every reception of communion is different
• There is no limit to the number of time you can receive

This is the first Mary Foundation talk based on a book. Pope John Paul II referred to the Holy Eucharist as "the greatest treasure of the Church," and yet most practicing Catholics have received very little in-depth or inspirational theological insight about this critical aspect of our spiritual lives since our school days.

Mr. Flynn's "secrets" are actually a series of surprising principles, insights, and "hidden" truths, presented together for the first time in one exciting talk. All seven secrets are based on truths found in the Bible, the writings of the Saints, the Catechism, and recent teachings of Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict. These truths have always been embraced by the saints, Church Fathers, theologians, and mystics, but have never before been presented together, and rarely in such a meaningful and accessible way.

This talk also includes two "bonus secrets" about Our Lady's relationship to the Eucharist which are not found in Vinny Flynn's book. Vinny Flynn will show you how reception of the Eucharist can be a life-changing experience the very next time you receive Holy Communion.

John 6:53-56 So Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you have no life in you; (54) he who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (55) For my flesh is food indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. (56) He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides in me, and I in him.

(27) And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you; (28) for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. (29) I tell you I shall not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom." (30) And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
