The Doctrine of the Lord's Supper: As Set Forth in the Book of Concord, Critically Examined, and Its Fallacy Demonstrated (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from The Doctrine of the Lord's Supper: As Set Forth in the Book of Concord, Critically Examined, and Its Fallacy Demonstrated
The sequel will show that the reformation of a cer rupt Church, and a thoroughly intelligent appreciation of Christianity, cannot be achieved in the brief space of a single generation, especially when we reflect that the knowledge of the Reformers chiefly comprised scholastic learning, while, at the same time, their minds were warped by the prejudices of a bigoted and servile education, thwarted in its nobler aspirations by groveling monachism on the one hand, and hierarchical tyranny on the other.

The Doctrine of the Lord's Supper (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a critique of the doctrine of the Real Presence in the Lord's Supper, a cornerstone of Lutheran doctrine. The author, a devout Lutheran, argues that the Lutheran position of consubstantiation or impanation, which holds that the body and blood of Christ are present in, with, and under the elements of bread and wine, is unscriptural and irrational. The author provides extensive scriptural evidence, maintaining that the words of Jesus, "This is my body," should be understood figuratively, not literally. He argues that the bread and wine are symbols of Christ's body and blood, not the actual substances themselves. The book also traces the historical development of the Real Presence doctrine, showing how it arose from the influence of Greek philosophy on the early Church. The author concludes that the doctrine of the Real Presence is a departure from the simplicity of the gospel and that it has led to superstition and idolatry.
