Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Institution, Nature and Design of the Lord´s Supper The Author of the following pages published an essay on the Lord´s Supper, in the Methodist Protestant, at the request of the editor of that periodical, who had heard him deliver a discourse in St. John´s church, on, "This do in remembrance of me." Since the appearance of the essay, the writer has been repeatedly solicited to prepare a treatise, of convenient size, on the Lord´s Supper, embodying the views presented in the essay. To gratify his friends, and to contribute his mite towards the elucidation of this important subject, he has revised the essay, and added a considerable amount of matter, which he hopes will be interesting and useful. He has been induced the more cheerfully to undertake this little work, from the consideration, that, with the exception of one or two, he knows of no treatise on the subject which does not abound in phraseology and sentiment, calculated to lead the minds of the rising generation back again to the exploded doctrine of transubstantiation. The old language of transubstantiation is retained, and the unintelligible notion of spiritual manducation is inculcated in almost every treatise he has read. The highly exceptional phraseology of old formularies, blended with scriptural language, is defended, and urged on the acceptance of the religious community; and thus error and truth, light and darkness, are commingled, and presented to the minds of the humble, but sincere christian, to the great detriment of religious knowledge, and rational piety.
