The Eucharist in the plan of salvation

Click for live image

"God, infinitely perfect and blessed in himself, in a plan of sheer goodness, freely created man to make him share His own blessed life. For this reason . . . God draws close to man" (CCC 1). Out of the pure and unselfish love that is His very essence, God created the universe so that we could exist and enjoy His love forever. To this end, He revealed Himself to the whole world through a "Chosen People," established a covenant of love with them, revealed His law to them, sent them prophets, and, finally, fulfilled His covenant by sending His eternal Son, who was born, lived, died, resurrected, and ascended so that we could be saved from sin and united to God. Jesus Christ the Son of God continued His presence and work among us by appointing apostles and establishing the Church, His "Mystical Body." God did all this for one reason: for the love-union with us that is achieved most perfectly in this life in the Eucharist.
