The Lord's Supper as the Sign and Meal of the New Covenant
Author: Guy Prentiss Waters
Publisher: Crossway
ISBN: 1433558408
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
"When he had given thanks, he broke it, and said, 'This is my body, which is for you. Do this in remembrance of me.'" —1 Corinthians 11:24 The Lord's Supper is more than a church tradition or a complex doctrinal controversy—it has practical importance to our daily lives. When Jesus instituted the Supper, it was meant to strengthen the faith of his followers by reminding them of his promises. God has always made promises to his people through covenants, and along with them given signs and meals to point to and confirm his blessings. Looking at the unity of the covenants throughout the Bible, this book will help Christians recover the practical importance of the Lord's Supper as both a sign and a meal of the new covenant blessings God has bestowed on believers in Christ.

Author: Zondervan,
Publisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310542758
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 227
Book Description
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.

The Lord's Supper, Simply Explained
Author: Ashton Oxenden
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781543273595
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 94
Book Description
From THE INTRODUCTION. The Lord's Supper is one of the Christian Sacraments. It is one of those Ordinances which Christ specially appointed for the good of His people. Now, what is meant by the word "Sacrament." A Sacrament means an outward sign of some inward blessing. Mere words and commands are very apt to be forgotten by us. Therefore our Lord Jesus Christ, who well knew our weakness, appointed certain outward ceremonies, which we can see, to bring before our minds, and to convey to our souls, certain inward and spiritual blessings which we cannot see. The word "Sacrament" has also a further meaning. It was formerly used to signify the oath, by which Soldiers bound themselves to be faithful to their General. And so, when we partake of the Sacraments of the church, (that is, Baptism and the Lord's Supper, ) we do in fact pledge ourselves to be true and faithful soldiers of Christ, who is the great " Captain of our salvation." In this book your attention is directed to the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, or, as it is sometimes called, the Holy Communion. My Christian Reader, you and I have a very solemn subject before us. And I entreat you not to read another page, without asking for God's blessing. May your prayer come, not from your lips only, but from your heart!
