Understanding Four Views on the Lord's Supper

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 thought-provoking book. This new volume in the Counterpoints: Church Life series allows four contributors to make a case for the following views: Baptist view (memorialism), Reformed view (spiritual presence), Lutheran view (consubstantiation), and Roman Catholic view (transubstantiation). Each view is presented by its proponent, then critiqued and defended in dialogue with the other contributors. Learn the strengths and weaknesses and arrive at your own informed conclusion. The book includes several appendix resources, as well as discussion questions for each chapter to facilitate small group use. - Back cover.
