"On the altar you are looking at the same thing as you saw there last night.
You have not heard, however, what this is, what it signifies, or about the
greatness of the reality of which it is a sacrament. Your eyes are looking
at bread and cup. This is the evidence before your physical sight. But your
faith must be instructed concerning it - this bread being Christ 's Body and
the cup containing His Blood. Though perhaps these words may be enough to
initiate faith, faith must be further instructed in accordance with the
Prophet's words: 'Believe that you may understand' ( Is 7:9).
