Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from In the Breaking of the Bread: A Volume of Communion Addresses Never shall I forget the impression made upon me by the remark of a Scotchman about the Lord´s Supper. He was the "pro" on the golf links of the Country Club. He had but recently brought his "lines" from the old country. With an awesome look in his face, and in a tone of deepest reverence, he said: "I´m not forgetting, Dominie, that it´s the sacrament next Sunday, and nothing shall keep me away." It was not so much what he said as it was the way he said it. The traditions of a deeply religious race dissolved in the blood of many generations were speaking. To the Scotch, the sacrament of the Lord´s Supper is the "holy of holies" in Christian experience. Well for all of us if our reverence for that high hour were greater. Better for the Church if the holy mystery of the Presence could cast its spell on modern life until recreation as well as worship feel its hallowing touch. He has found a sanctuary in the common place whose soul is uplifted and summoned by the very thought of the sacrament, until he resolves that nothing shall be permitted to break his tryst with his Saviour.
