Episode notes

The union with Christ, it's our Christology is at play. Because we have a different Christology than Lutherans, we talk differently about the presence of Christ. And so we're not talking about like a perpetual incarnation in the sacraments. We're participating, eating heavenly by faith and present with Christ spiritually and heavenly.

Christ instituted the Lord’s Supper and commanded the church to “do this in remembrance of me.” But why? In this episode of White Horse Inn, hosts Michael Horton, Justin Holcomb, Bob Hiller, and Walter Strickland compare the unique views of the Lutheran, Baptist, Reformed, and Anglican traditions of this sacrament and what it means to participate in our union with Christ by “eating his body and drinking his blood.”
