health and wholeness

English to Chinese Other Religion
I discovered that God ordained the Holy Communion
not as a ritual to be observed, but as a blessing
to be received — the blessing of health and
wholeness.

Thank you in advance!

Thank you all!
Shirley Lao Aug 14, 2007:
According to Catholic teachings, all men are born with "original sins". So, we are not "pure" (whole). Only after being baptised and receiving the Holy Communion, can we become united to Jesus Christ and God and become "pure and whole".
Julia Zou (asker) Aug 14, 2007:
Thank you for your explanation, Shirley!
Shirley Lao Aug 14, 2007:
I am not sure about the proper Chinese term for "health and wholeness". It means "a spiritual union with Jesus Christ" and salvation.
Shirley Lao Aug 14, 2007:
The bread and wine taken during the Holy Communion symbolises Jesus's body and blood. Therefore, "wholeness" here means "union with the body of Jesus Christ".
Shirley Lao Aug 14, 2007:
Holy Communism is a Christian sacrament in which consecrated bread and wine are consumed as memorials of Christ's death or as symbols for the realization of a spiritual union between Christ and communicant or as the body and blood of Christ.
Julia Zou (asker) Aug 14, 2007:
关于wholeness, 这里还有一句话,也许能对帮助我的同仁有所启发:
This love made Him endure the cruel
stripes on His back and caused Him to subject
His body to be beaten, bruised and broken so
that yours can be whole. And when you partake,
you celebrate and release your faith to receive
His health and ***wholeness*** in exchange for your
sicknesses and diseases.

健康与完整

Christianity emphasizes on the wholeness of a person through Jesus Christ:
1. You are whole again through the salvation of Jesus christ, which enables you to reach God; Human beings are incomplete before they accept Jesus as their Savior, because they are rejected by God because of their sin.
2. A person consists of body, spirit and soul, with the soul as the eternal part which does not perish after death. Here again your soul is dead before you are saved.
In general, in the Christian doctrine, only Jesus can make you whole.

健康

个人认为这里的wholeness也是健康的意思,意思是A state of robust good health,两个词并用只是为了强调而已。而且,金山词霸中的《现代英汉综合大辞典》中解释说:whole:[古]健康的。
