In this third message about the Lord’s Supper we examine the Lutheran, Reformed, and Memorial views of the table. We spend the most time with Luther showing how his view of “Real Presence” is faulty because Jesus’ body cannot be in multiple locations at the same time.

We explain how Luther’s view that Christ’s body is literally present in the elements is a form of Eutychianism which taught that Christ’s human nature was absorbed by His divine nature to the point that Christ was no longer “fully human.”

We also explain how Zwingli’s symbolic view of the Lord’s table is superior to that of Calvin based on reading both John 6 and 1 Corinthians 11. Come and hear for yourself how the Lord’s Supper should be understood by us today.
