Devotion to the Precious Blood is specific to the Flemish piety of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. She inspired the icon of the Fountain of Life, filled with the flowing blood of the wounded Lamb of God or the Wounds of Christ. This icon was the subject of many Flemish paintings, on a subject whose interest had already been maintained since the twelfth century by the fame of the relic of the Holy Blood of Bruges. Since the end of the 13th century, it has given rise to the procession of the Holy Blood, also in Bruges. As a prayer, litanies are dedicated to him.

The Precious Blood is another name for the blood of Christ. The Christian Churches (Orthodox Church and Catholic Church) believe in the Eucharist. They teach that the body, mind, and divinity of Jesus are contained in the consecrated wine and bread (principle of transubstantiation) as distinct but mystically united Mysteries.

Religious congregations are dedicated to him, such as the Missionaries of the Precious Blood, the Adorers of the Precious Blood, the Brotherhood of the Holy Blood, the Sisters of the Precious Blood and the Daughters of Charity of the Very Precious Blood . Related Articleschange the code
