Every reception of the Holy Eucharist (the real presence of Jesus), increases our place in heaven. This is the incredible power of Holy Communion. God doesn't just want to save us from sin, but transforms us from one degree of glory to another. The real presence in the Eucharist offered to us in the holy sacrifice of the Catholic mass is the greatest gift God could give us to work out our salvation.

This video on the real presence of Jesus is video one, for a multiple part series in Catholic faith formation on the Eucharist. Stay tuned for more!

Video Summary:
Heaven is for real and not all in heaven experience the glory of God the same. In 1979 the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith issued a “Letter on Eschatology.” It stated clearly that “our charity on earth will be the measure of our sharing in God’s glory in heaven.” Our love for God can grow! Each reception of the Eucharist can increase our charity for God, thus, increase the measure our sharing in God's glory in heaven. Put another way, when we receive the Holy Eucharist, we experience an increase of sanctifying grace. Every increased of sanctifying grace, increase our eternal reward.

When we die, our capacity for God’s grace directly effects our experience of heaven. This difference is sometimes described as level of heaven, or a degrees of perfection.Of course we must depose our hearts to receive this grace in the Eucharist. We must be in the state of grace and earnestly seeking Jesus to love and please him.

Is the Real Presence found in scripture (also knowns as transubstantiation). Check out John 6
Jesus said to them, “Very truly I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is real food and my blood is real drink. 56 Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in me, and I in them

The Catholic Church has always taught and believed in the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist. All Christians believe this for 1500 years until the reformation. Why? Because this is what Jesus taught his Apostles, and the Apostles their successors. The teaching of on the Holy Eucharistic, being the real presence of Jesus, body and blood, soul and divinity has always been held to be true.
