This book presents the report of a conference convened to discuss the doctrine of the Holy Communion and its expression in ritual, convened by the Bishop of London in the year 1900. The Bishop requested all members of the conference send statements of their beliefs prior to the meeting. The resulting document contains viewpoints of different theologians of the time period, including the prominent scholars of the day. The author's intent was not to develop new formulations, but rather to record opinions to inform the reader. The text provides a valuable snapshot of the theological landscape of the Church of England at the turn of the 20th century. It provides insight into the ways in which theologians approached the questions of the Divine presence in the Eucharist and the relationship between the consecrated elements and the Divine Gift, and explores the sacrificial aspect of the Holy Communion and the expression of doctrine in ritual. By bringing together diverse perspectives, this book offers a nuanced understanding of the complex and multifaceted nature of Christian belief.
