Paragraph 2. THE CHURCH – PEOPLE OF GOD, BODY OF CHRIST, TEMPLE OF THE HOLY SPIRIT
790
Believers who respond to God’s word and become members of Christ’s Body, become
intimately united with him: “In that body the life of Christ is communicated
to those who believe, and who, through the sacraments, are united in a hidden
and real way to Christ in his Passion and glorification.”220 This
is especially true of Baptism, which unites us to Christ’s death and
Resurrection, and the Eucharist, by which “really sharing in the body of
the Lord, . . . we are taken up into communion with him and with one
another.”221
