The Plain Account of the Nature and End of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper

By Anonymous and Benjamin Hoadly

Book Overview

The Plain Account of the Nature and End of the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper is a theological treatise written by Benjamin Hoadly. The book provides a clear and concise explanation of the sacrament of the Lord's Supper and its significance in Christian theology. Hoadly argues that the sacrament is a symbolic representation of the sacrifice of Christ and that it is not necessary for salvation. He also challenges the idea of transubstantiation, the belief that the bread and wine become the actual body and blood of Christ during the sacrament. Hoadly's work was controversial at the time of its publication in 1735, as it challenged traditional Anglican views on the sacrament. However, it has since become an important work in the development of Protestant theology and continues to be studied by scholars and theologians today.1735.
