The Reality of the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist

The Real Presence is denied by Protestants, but we as Catholics can and must defend it.

Did Jesus Christ, the God-man, truly bestow the gift of His Real Presence on humanity in the form of bread and wine?

The Protestants of the early 16th century posed this question. The well-known and respected Swiss reformer Johannes Oecolampadius was not the first to challenge this fundamental and sacred Catholic doctrine, but he was the first to widely disseminate his views through print.

Readers will find five distinct prefaces within its 425 pages that deftly encapsulate the essence of each respective book, skillfully summarizing their core arguments. More importantly, the work unfolds as an impassioned defense of the Holy Eucharist, grounded in both scriptural evidence and the venerable heritage of 1500 years of Catholic theological tradition. Fisher's meticulous refutation of errors, combined with his unwavering commitment to defending the sacred sacrament, lends this book a powerful intellectual depth and theological integrity.

The work of St. John Fisher is even more relevant today than it was during the Protestant Reformation, as many Catholics are now questioning Transubstantiation. When addressing the concerns of Protestants and Catholics in the post-Vatican II era, St. John Fisher's "De Veritate" is the strongest defense of the Holy Eucharist.

This lovely cloth-bound edition has 425 pages and will be a treasured addition to any Catholic library.
