Throughout the centuries, several relics have been venerated as bearing the blood of Jesus Christ.
The Shroud of Turin—believed by many to be Christ’s burial cloth—has visible bloodstains consistent with a tortured, crucified man.
The Sudarium of Oviedo, thought to have covered His face, also carries ancient blood traces.
Eucharistic miracles, such as ones from Lanciano and Buenos Aires, which have been studied under laboratory conditions, contain preserved samples of what appears to be human blood and tissue.
Across all of these—despite their varied time periods and geographic origins—scientific testing reveals the same result: type AB+ blood.
It's worth noting that the concept of blood types weren’t even discovered until 1901, by Austrian scientist Karl Landsteiner—long after the known provenance of these relics
Type AB+ is rare, found in less than 5% of the population. It’s also known as the universal plasma recipient—symbolically capable of receiving from all others. For believers, that detail resonates deeply:The One who poured out His blood for all… bears the blood type that can take on all.
While the Church doesn’t base doctrine on these findings, the convergence of faith and science invites contemplation—a modern echo of an ancient mystery.
