Communion | Most Divisive Doctrine in the History of the Church

The true Eucharist is the sacrament of Christian unity: "Because there is one bread, we who are many are one body, for we all partake of the one bread" 1 Cor. 10:17

But Protestant doctrines that dissent from the full reality of the Lord’s Supper are stumbling blocks to Jesus’ prayer for Christian unity.

In this video, we examine the Eucharist (or Communion) and why it remains the most divisive doctrine in the history of the Church. The Lord’s Supper is meant to be the sacrament of Christian unity, yet the division between Catholic and Protestant interpretations continues to challenge Jesus' prayer for unity. For Catholic apologists, Protestants studying Catholicism, and Catholic converts defending their faith, this video explores why the Eucharist is at the heart of the Catholic Church's theology and how Protestant dissent from the full reality of the Eucharist creates theological rifts.

We’ll dive into the biblical foundations of Catholic Mass, the significance of transubstantiation, and how Protestant Eucharistic views—from symbolic to memorial—conflict with Catholic teaching. The video addresses the ongoing debate about the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist and how differing views on Communion have led to centuries of doctrinal division within Christianity.

Whether you are a Protestant trying to understand the Catholic Church's Eucharistic theology, or a Catholic defending the centrality of the Eucharist in Christian unity, this video provides insight into the theological implications and historical roots of one of Christianity’s most divisive teachings.

Raised Catholic, I left the Church at age 22 and became a Baptist/evangelical for 34 years, which included 10 years as a pastor. In 2023, I returned to the Catholic Church after an intense period of study and prayer.
