Caphiric Rite: Difference between revisions

Line 11:

Most Caphiric church buildings have benches running along portions of the nave; social etiquette typically reserves these seats for the elderly, pregnant, or very young, who are to use them in lieu of kneeling.

===Type of bread===

The Caphiric Rite uses {{wp|leavened bread}} in its liturgy as opposed to the {{wp|unleavened bread}} employed by the rest of the Latin Rite.

===Oblation of Fire===

The Oblation of Fire is a part of the hostia that is the greatest deviation from the rest of the Latin Rite. Following the distribution of the {{wp|Eucharist}}, the priest will take the majority of the remaining consecrated hosts and place them in a depression built into the front of the altar (known as the Altar of Burning) and burned. This process, an "offering" called the Oblation of Fire, is intended as "a way for the people to participate in the eternal sacrifice of the Son to the Father in the timeless tradition given to Moses and the prophets", emulating the {{wp|Burnt offering (Judaism)|burnt offerings}} offered at the Temple in the Old Testament as prescribed by the {{wp|Book of Judges}} and elsewhere. The resulting product, [[Sacred Ash]], is used within a variety of religious and social practices in Caphirian society. As the Caphiric Church believes in the {{wp|real presence}} and {{wp|transubstantiation}}, the Ash is believed to have divine qualities.

Only a small amount of the consecrated host is retained and not burnt; it is usually a few pieces or even a single piece rather than many pieces as is the custom in the Latin Rite, kept to maintain the real presence within the tabernacle.
