Synopsis

This book delves into a debate that has raged for centuries: the true meaning of the Eucharist. The author, a devout scholar, tackles the contentious interpretation of Christ’s words at the Last Supper, focusing on the Roman Catholic doctrine of Transubstantiation. He challenges the prevailing interpretation of the era, arguing that a common-sense approach to interpreting biblical language, consistent with how early Church Fathers understood Scripture, contradicts the notion of Transubstantiation. The book expertly dissects the arguments of his contemporaries, particularly those of a prominent Roman Catholic theologian, exposing inconsistencies in their interpretation and highlighting the historical roots of the controversy. The author’s insightful analysis, grounded in both Scripture and the writings of the early Church, serves as a powerful tool for understanding the theological complexities of the Eucharist and its enduring significance in Christian faith.
