Christ’s sacrifice, the confessor sacrifice of martyrs and ofthe Eucharistic sacrifice are in a close interdependence. Christ is the Archmartyr par excellence because His death is a martyr’s death, the Cross is a terrible martyric ordeal. Martyrs are those who testify to thewhole world for the Church of Christ, where they remain through thesacrifice of their own lives. They are those who die for their faith and thusbecome witnesses of faith, of the power of the soul over the body and thepower of resurrection over death. Martyrs are those who have offered their lives to Christ as a well received sacrifice, showing to the world that theydid not want to save their lives or to obtain certain social or personal benefits, recognizing that the human soul is more precious than the whole world. Martyrs are a symbol for the whole Christian religion because forthem the teaching of Christ was not just a set of theoretical notions, but aliving and life-giving word. The dynamism of the Church is accomplished by the living and non sacrificed sacrifice, meaning the dead and risen Christ. Eucharist is not just a symbol of a fact that occurred sometimein history, but is it self the eschatological reality of a world that began concomitant with the Mystical Supper and continues until the end of ages. The Eucharist holds an eschatological dimension as by it man lives with and in Christ. It gives man real and personal contact with Christ, making him live yet from the earth this eschatological life.
