It was the final stage of the reformers ' work of removing all elements of sacrificial offering from the Latin Mass ; so that it should cease to be seen as a ritual at which the priest, on behalf of the faithful offered Christ's body and blood to God ; and might rather be seen as a ritual whereby Christ shared his body and blood, according to a different sacramental theology, with the faithful.
