The Lord's Supper has been the central and characteristic action of
the church at worship. But there are still many ways of
understanding it and many questions surrounding this meal... Who
should participate in the Lord's Supper? How frequently should we
observe it? What does this meal mean? What happens when we eat the
bread and drink from the cup? What do Christians disagree about and
what do they hold in common? These and other questions are explored
in this volume of the fair-minded, informative Counterpoints
series. Contributors make a case for one of the following views:
Baptist view (memorialism) Reformed view (spiritual presence)
Lutheran view (consubstantiation) Roman Catholic view
(transubstantiation) All contributors use Scripture to present
their views, and each responds to the others' essays. Included are
resources for understanding the topic further, such as: A listing
of statements on the Lord's Supper from creeds and confessions
Quotations from noted Christians A resource listing of books on the
Lord's Supper Discussion questions for each chapter to facilitate
small group and classroom use The Counterpoints series presents a
comparison and critique of scholarly views on topics important to
Christians that are both fair-minded and respectful of the biblical
text. Each volume is a one-stop reference that allows readers to
evaluate the different positions on a specific issue and form their
own, educated opinion.
