We begin with a brief reminder of the differences between the Lutheran and Catholic views on the Eucharist in the sixteenth century. Luther stated three points of conflict on the matter: the question of Laienkelch or communion under both species of bread and wine by the laity; how to understand the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist; and the discussion about the Mass as a sacrifice. There follows a discussion of the studies and conclusions of the Catholic-Lutheran dialogue in the second half of the twentieth century showing the progresses and the remaining tasks for the twentieth first century
