Transubstantiation and the Holy Spirit in the Reformed Tradition
Transubstantiation is this idea that there's a distinction between the substance and the accidents or like the external appearance. Luther would not at all be surprised if that exact language was in use during his time as an Anglican priest. He certainly thinks of it as more than just something we are doing to sort of jumpstart our memory you know he definitely thinks the Holy Spirit is communicating Christ in a very powerful way but it's different from how a Lutheran or Roman Catholic would understand it.
