Puritan Board Freshman
In listening to Lutherans speak about the Bodily Presence of Christ in the Supper, they point to 1 Corinthians 11:27:
"Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner, shall be guilty of the body and the blood of the Lord."
Thus, against the Reformed, they argue, "how can the bread and wine in the Supper be merely sacramental symbols if by unworthy partaking, we become guilty of the actual body and blood of Christ?"
How would the brothers respond to this argument?
