Table of Remembrance

(Excerpt) The theme announced for this Institute is Grace upon Grace: Uving Bread. In this keynote address I have been asked to set an ecumenical tone for your conversations about the Eucharist, speaking to how it means for the faithful and drawing upon my own theology-which reviewers, both Lutheran and Evangelical, have dubbed a distinctively Roman Catholic theology but one that is ecumenically open and challenging. I think this means that it opens the way to better mutual understanding and enrichment. Drawing on this theology, I have chosen five headings under which to offer my considerations: the Eucharist as testament of service, the Eucharist as an invitation to table, the Eucharist as a table where memories are stored, the Eucharist as a table where Jesus Christ is guest, host and gift, and the Eucharist as a table of blessing

PENGARUH TEOLOGI EKARISTI IGNATIUS ANTIOKHIA TERHADAP ENSIKLIK ECCLESIA DE EUCHARISTIA

In the Encyclical of Ecclesia de Eucharistia, John Paul II states that Eucharist unites Church with God. In Eucharist, the presence of Christ is real. As a consequence, understanding Eucharist as merely series of rubrics is a form of reduction of the Eucharist. In the Encyclical, the Pope recalled the thought of Ignatius of Antioch on the Eucharist. Both John Paul II and Ignatius stated that Eucharist is a thanksgiving on the salvation of God. Eucharist is an invitation of God for the Church to live in the presence of God. The living experience of loving God supports the Church in transforming the world. The Church receives the power of Loving God in the Eucharist that strengthens each witness to live an exemplary Christian life here and now
