The Mystical Presence - John Williamson Nevin - Bog

The Mystical Presence: A Vindication Of The Reformed Or Calvinistic Doctrine Of The Holy Eucharist is a book written by John Williamson Nevin and published in 1867. The book is a defense of the Reformed or Calvinistic doctrine of the Holy Eucharist, which is the belief that the bread and wine of the Eucharist are symbols of Christ's body and blood rather than being literally transformed into them. Nevin argues that this doctrine is not only biblical but also consistent with the teachings of the early church fathers. He also critiques the Roman Catholic and Anglican views of the Eucharist, which he believes are based on a flawed understanding of the sacrament. The book is written in a scholarly style and includes extensive references to biblical and historical sources. It is considered an important work in the history of Protestant theology and has influenced the development of the Reformed doctrine of the Eucharist.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
