The Lord's Supper - Connected to Christ?

So, how well do you know the doctrine of the Lord's Supper?

Think about - we partake and we are ignornat of what is going on most of the time.

Is Christ truly there?

Are the elements really the body and blood or not? Kinda?

Is Christ "around" the elements? In them? Do they become Him? DOes He become them?

Is the Lord's Supper a sacrament? What is a sacrament?

Are we connected to Christ through the Supper in some mysterious way?

Wow, lots of questions! And we have not even begun to see the rest of the iceberg!

The Wild Boar is going to take a bite out of those who are misconstruing the Lord's Supper.

The first part is about the Old Testament ideas and signs. WBNP#35
THe second part covers Calvin's basic view. WBNP#36

Future parts will cover Zwingli, Luther, Westminster, etc. and yes, the New Testament teaching in light of the Old Testament fulfillment.
