Paragraph 5. THE COMMUNION OF SAINTS
947
“Since all the faithful form one body, the good of each is communicated to
the others…. We must therefore believe that there exists a communion of goods
in the Church. But the most important member is Christ, since he is the
head…. Therefore, the riches of Christ are communicated to all the members,
through the sacraments.”478 “As this Church is governed by
one and the same Spirit, all the goods she has received necessarily become a
common fund.”479
