Sacrament Participles established by the Lord Himself last supper- the last meal with the students in Easter night before His arrest and crucifixion.
“And while they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat: this is My body. And, taking the cup and giving thanks, he gave it to them and said: drink from it, all of you, for this is My Blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins" (Matthew 26:26-28), "...do this in remembrance of Me" (Luke 22:19). In the Sacrament of the Flesh and Blood of the Lord ( Eucharist - Greek. “thanksgiving”) there is a restoration of that unity between the nature of the Creator and the creation that existed before the Fall; this is our return to paradise lost. We can say that in Communion we receive, as it were, the embryos of future life in the Kingdom of Heaven. The mystical mystery of the Eucharist is rooted in the Savior's Sacrifice on the Cross. Having crucified His Flesh on the cross and shed His Blood, the God-man Jesus offered the Sacrifice of Love for us to the Creator and restored fallen human nature. Thus, the communion of the Body and Blood of the Savior becomes our participation in this restoration. « Christ is risen from the dead, death by death trampled down, and gave life to those in the tombs; and giving us eternal life...”
Eating the Flesh and Blood of Christ in the Sacrament of the Eucharist is not a symbolic action (as Protestants believe), but quite real. Not everyone can accommodate this secret.
« Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you.”
He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.
For My Flesh is truly food, and My Blood is truly drink.
He who eats My Flesh and drinks My Blood abides in Me, and I in him.
Just as the living Father sent Me, and I live through the Father, so he who eats Me will also live through Me.
This is the bread that came down from heaven. Not as your fathers ate manna and died: whoever eats this bread will live forever.

Many of His disciples, hearing this, said: What strange words! who can listen to this?
…………………………………………
From that time on, many of His disciples departed from Him and no longer walked with Him” (John 6:53–58, 60, 66).
Rationalists try to “bypass” the mystery, reducing mysticism to a symbol. The proud perceive what is inaccessible to their reason as an insult: Leo Tolstoy blasphemously called the sacrament “cannibalism.” For others it is a wild superstition, for others it is an anachronism. But the children of the Church of Christ know that in the Sacrament of the Eucharist, under the guise of bread and wine, they truly partake of the Body and Blood of Christ in Their essence. Indeed, it is not human nature to eat raw flesh and blood, and therefore at Communion the Gifts of Christ are hidden under the image of bread and wine. Nevertheless, hidden under the outer shell of perishable matter is the incorruptible substance of the Divine nature. Sometimes, by special permission, the Lord lifts this veil of mystery and allows those in doubt to see the true nature of the Holy Gifts. In particular, in my personal practice there were two cases when the Lord wanted to allow those who were communing to see His Body and Blood in their authentic form. Both times were first communions; in one case, a person was sent to the Church by psychics for their own reasons. In another, the reason for coming to the temple was very superficial curiosity. After such a wonderful event, both became faithful children of the Orthodox Church.
How can we at least approximately understand the meaning of what is happening in the Sacrament of Communion? The nature of creation was created by the Creator akin to Himself: not only permeable, but also, as it were, inseparable from the Creator. This is natural given the holiness of created nature - its original state of free unity and submission to the Creator. The angelic worlds are in this state. However, nature our the world is distorted and perverted by the fall of its guardian and leader - man. Nevertheless, she did not lose the opportunity to reunite with the nature of the Creator: the clearest evidence of this is the incarnation of the Savior. But man fell away from God voluntarily, and he can also reunite with Him only through free will (even the incarnation of Christ required the consent of a person - the Virgin Mary!). In the same time deification
inanimate, without free will, nature, God can do it naturally, without permission
. Thus, in the divinely established Sacrament of Communion, the grace of the Holy Spirit at the established moment of the service (and also at the request of a person!) descends on the substance of bread and wine and offers
them into a substance of a different, higher nature: the Body and Blood of Christ. And now a person can accept these highest Gifts of Life only by showing his free will! The Lord gives Himself to everyone, but those who believe Him and love Him—the children of His Church—accept Him.
So, Communion is the grace-filled communion of the soul with the higher nature and in it with eternal life. Bringing this down greatest secret to the realm of everyday image, we can compare Communion with the “nutrition” of the soul, which it should receive after its “birth” in the Sacrament of Baptism. And just as a person is born into the world by flesh once, and then feeds for the rest of his life, so Baptism is a one-time event, and we must resort to Communion regularly, preferably at least once a month, possibly more often. Communion once a year is the minimum acceptable, but such a “hungry” regime can bring the soul to the brink of survival.
It is necessary to properly prepare for participation in the Eucharist. A meeting with God is an event that shakes the soul and transforms the body. Worthy communion requires a conscious and reverent attitude towards this event. There must be sincere faith in Christ and an understanding of the meaning of the Sacrament. We must have reverence for the Savior’s Sacrifice and an awareness of our unworthiness to accept this great Gift (we accept It not as a well-deserved reward, but as a manifestation of the mercy of a loving Father). There must be reconciliation of the soul: you need to sincerely forgive in your heart everyone who has “saddened us” in one way or another (remembering the words of the Lord’s Prayer: “And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors”) and try, if possible, to reconcile with them ; This applies even more to those who, for one reason or another, consider themselves offended by us. Before Communion, one should read the prayers defined by the Church and compiled by the holy fathers, which are called: “Following to Holy Communion”; These prayer texts are present, as a rule, in all editions of Orthodox prayer books (collections of prayers). It is advisable to discuss the exact amount of reading of these texts with the priest to whom you turn for advice and who knows the specifics of your life. After the Sacrament of Communion is performed, it is necessary to read “Prayers of Thanksgiving for Holy Communion.” Finally, preparing to accept into yourself - into your flesh and into your soul - the Mysteries of the Body and Blood of Christ, terrible in their greatness, you must cleanse yourself with body and soul. Fasting and Confession serve this purpose.
Corporal fasting involves abstaining from eating savory food. The duration of fasting before Communion is usually up to three days. Directly on the eve of Communion one must abstain from marital relations and from midnight one must not eat any food (in fact, one must not eat or drink anything in the morning before the service). However, in specific cases, significant deviations from these norms are possible; They should, again, be discussed individually.
The Sacrament of Communion itself takes place in the Church at a service called liturgy . As a rule, the liturgy is celebrated in the first half of the day; exact time The beginning of services and the days of their performance should be found out directly in the temple you are going to go to. Services usually begin between seven and ten o'clock in the morning; The duration of the liturgy, depending on the nature of the service and partly on the number of communicants, is from one and a half to four to five hours. In cathedrals and monasteries, liturgies are served daily; in parish churches on Sundays and on church holidays. It is advisable for those preparing for Communion to attend the service from the beginning (for this is a single spiritual action), and also to attend the evening service the day before, which is prayerful preparation for the Liturgy and the Eucharist.
During the liturgy, you need to stay in the church without going out, prayerfully participating in the service until the priest comes out of the altar with a cup and proclaims: “Approach with the fear of God and faith.” Then the communicants line up one after another in front of the pulpit (first children and the infirm, then men and then women). Hands should be folded crosswise on the chest; You are not supposed to be baptized in front of the cup. When your turn comes, you need to stand in front of the priest, say your name and open your mouth so that you can put in a spoon with a particle of the Body and Blood of Christ. The liar must be thoroughly licked with his lips, and after wiping his lips with the cloth, reverently kiss the edge of the bowl. Then, without venerating the icons or talking, you need to move away from the pulpit and take a drink - St. water with wine and a particle of prosphora (in this way, it is as if the oral cavity is washed, so that the smallest particles of the Gifts are not accidentally expelled from oneself, for example, when sneezing). After communion, you need to read (or listen in Church) prayers of thanksgiving and in the future carefully guard your soul from sins and passions.
The Russian language is rich in a large number of different parts of speech, which help to construct a literate and logical text. But it is impossible to imagine our native speech without participles, forms of the verb that contain its characteristics, and adjectives. Participles are synthesized parts of speech that have a large number of expressive capabilities and can perform different functions in a sentence. It must be studied as part of the school curriculum.
First of all, it is necessary to define participle as a part of speech. A participle is a verb form that combines the characteristics of an adjective and a verb and answers the questions which? which? The participle characterizes an action and its sign at the same time. This is how you can briefly explain what a sacrament is. Examples of words related to this part of speech are leading, shouting, knowing, becoming, living, read and many others.
Since a participle is inseparable from an adjective, they have some common features. Thus, participles can change according to numbers, genders and cases. It is important to note that both short and full participles. Examples of words that have these features, bringing them closer to adjectives: dreamer - dreamer (change by gender), recognized - recognized (singular and plural), composed - composed - composed (change by case: nominative, genitive and dative, respectively).
Since the participle is one of the forms of the verb, these two parts of speech are closely interrelated and have a set of common features. Among them, it is worth noting the aspect (perfect - said, imperfect - speaking), recurrence and irrevocability (laughing, removed), voice (passive - prepared, active - aging). Transitivity and intransitivity are another feature that characterizes the participle. Examples of words that are transitive are cleaning (room), reading (newspaper), and intransitive words are worn out, inspired.
A special point is the presence of tense in participles. It is necessary to remember that this part of speech has only past and present tenses. Participles do not have a future tense form.
This group of participles names the action that the object itself performs. But what is it in practice? active participle? Examples of words in this category are frightening, whispering, living, screaming, flying, etc.
In a sentence, the active participle describes an action that develops simultaneously with the one that the predicate names (for example: A mother watches her child playing).
A special situation with active past participles. What action a particular participle describes can be judged after determining the type of verb from which it is derived. So, if the active participle is formed using the corresponding suffixes from the verb perfect form, then the action occurred before the other, named by the verb. For example, a student sits in class and decides test. The participle is formed from the verb “decide” (what to do?) - perfect form. A student is sitting in the classroom solving a test. IN in this case the sentence uses a participle imperfect form.
Another variety of this part of speech is passive participles. Examples of words that fall into this category could be: created, acquired, dressed, built, driven, etc.
This type of participle describes an action that is performed on an object. In turn, the process that the participle calls can occur either simultaneously with what the predicate is talking about, or end earlier, but nevertheless have a connection with the present moment.
Very often, both in speech and in literature, you can find a passive participle with a dependent word. Examples of such phrases: a work written by a composer, a music track listened to by a music lover, etc.
The participle can be transformed into other parts of speech under the influence of various processes that contribute to the development of the Russian language. Thus, a participle can be substantivized into a noun (you need to pay attention to words such as commander, future, which answer questions Who? And What?).
Another important concept is the adjectivated participle. Examples of words that have been affected by this process are fried, ripe, hidden, innate, etc. A completely logical question arises: how to distinguish a participle from an adjective in each specific case? One of the main signs that will help you separate these parts of speech is to find a participle with a dependent word. Examples of such words: potatoes fried in a frying pan, an act causing indignation, etc.
In the course of studying each part of speech both in the school curriculum and in curriculum Any philological faculty contains tasks on analyzing a particular word in a sentence. To do this, it is necessary to determine the part of speech to which a given lexical unit belongs and competently perform the analysis. So, let's try to parse the participle. How to determine that a word is a representative of this particular part of speech? You just need to know the typical participle suffixes. Examples of words containing the suffixes -ush-, -yush (participating, thirsty), -ash-, -yash- (hurrying, sleeping), -vsh- (become), -t- (deceived), -enn-, -nn - (built-in, recognized), -om-, -em- (adored, driven), - all these are participles, active and passive, past or present tense.
So, parsing a participle consists of inserting a question into it (most often which one?), identifying it as a participle, indicating the initial masculine form, singular in the nominative case, the definition of the verb and the suffix with which it is formed from it. It is also necessary to indicate the type, presence of reflexivity and transitivity, voice, tense, form (short or full), gender, number, case and declension, syntactic role in this particular sentence.
Participles are formed from a verb and have some of its constant signs. Participles are perfect ( read, excited ) and imperfect form ( read, excited ). The type of participle coincides with the type of the verb from which it is formed ( excited - from the perfective verb to excite, worried- from the imperfect verb to worry).
Designating sign of an object by action, participle combines features verb And adjective . Like an adjective, a participle agrees with a noun in gender, number and case (these are its inconstant characteristics): child playing, girl playing, children playing . Some participles, like adjectives, can form a short form: built - built, born - born .
Adjectives And participles answer the same question, indicate a feature of an object. To distinguish them, you need to remember the following: adjectives denote a characteristic by color, shape, smell, place, time, etc. These signs are constantly characteristic of this object. And the participle denotes a sign by action, this sign occurs in time, it is not permanently characteristic of the object. Let's compare: reading room - adjective, sign by purpose, and reading person - participle, sign of action; bold - emboldened, dark - darkening, busy - busy . Also, participles are formed using suffixes unique to them: - ush- (-yush-), -ash- (-box-), -vsh-(-sh-), -eat-, -im-, -om-,-T-, -enn- (the latter occurs in adjectives).
