Holy Communion



Uploaded by: ELCAVideo
Video Description:
Holy Communion is central to the Christian faith. Martin Luther saw Jesus present in, with and under the sacrament. Featuring the insights of Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago scholars Craig A. Satterlee and Kurt K. Hendel, this DVD explores the biblical foundations for Holy Communion, and reviews the Reformation history that defines modern Christian understandings of Holy Communion.
Spotlighting stories from Milwaukee, Wisconsin and Ander, Texas, we also discover ways in which Christians practice Holy Communion in a variety of congregational settings.

This site is from ... ( 1 year ago by wallys333)
This site is from the evangelical LUTHERAN church in america. We do believe in the real presence of Christ in the Lord's supper. We are not ROMAN Catholic -- but part of the church universal (catholic), which is called the body of Christ. If you belive that you recieve the body and blood of Christ in the Lord's Supper and are a baptized believer you are welcome to our table.

I applaud the Lutheran position on Holy Communion. With regard to the Catholic position, they don't believe they are actually knawing on Jesus's arm. It's more about absorbing Christ's presence.
Luther and ... ( 1 year ago by seekerj2)
Luther and Catholics hold that the bread and wine are transformed in a mysterious way, totally up to the power of God. See video about 8:00-9:20 minute part of video. How you present it (biological) takes away the mystery of God. By your analysis it seems that Jesus could not reverse the biological effects of death (Lazarus) or Chemically transform water into wine. Jesus said it, we believe it...no matter how hard one argues against the impossibility...God can do anything !
Oh so right! Taking ... ( 1 year ago by Gregyboweggy)
Oh so right! Taking communion is not literally eating Jesus' flesh and drinking wine/grape juice is not literally drinking His blood...it is simply done in "remembrance" of Him (Luke 22:19) we know that the breaking and bleeding of Christ's body was for the remission of sins and one only partakes of that during repentance,baptism, infilling of His Spirit.

You Lutheran heretics... [no offence, just the truth from Catholic point of view ;-)]
Lutherans believe ... ( 9 months ago by jeremycolealexander)
Lutherans believe in the true presence of Jesus Christ in the holy sacrament of the Eucharist. Moravian, Anglicans/Episcopalians, and the reformed have a "reformed" view of the sacrament, not a catholic/Lutheran view(Orthodox). They do not believe in Eucharist as a means of grace and they do not believe in the true presence(Heterodox). How can you be in communion and serve the Eucharist to people who don't even understand the grace behind it, or reject the grace of the Lords supper?
you shouldn't have ... ( 9 months ago by jeremycolealexander)
you shouldn't have done that...You're supposed to be confirmed in order to recieve communion in the Roman Catholic church or most Lutheran synods. But, since you didn't understand, just remember next time, I'm glad that even though you're not Lutheran or Catholic, you still have respect for this sacred tradition. :)
Luther believed did ... ( 9 months ago by jeremycolealexander)
Luther believed did in the true presence of the eucharist, it's even in the catechism. It is the body and blood, same as the Catholic view. They even said in the video they say this, so it is more than symbolic, if you are a believing Lutheran. That's why it's a sacrament, not a symbol.

True, I was raised Catholic, but I'm now more ELCA. My cousin is a LCMS minister and so I knew that we both shared the same view, but most protestants do not hold the view of communion as a sacrament. But I'm just glad Catholic and Lutherans can see communion as something holy. :)

Exactly why do protestants believe that Holy Communion is only a way of symbolism?

Do Lutherans believe in the Real Prescence like Catholics do?

god picked a special day wine and bread to be his body and blood. the church without authority changed those. without any scriptural authority. so your communion means nothing. have a nice day
Array ( 6 months ago by ukidding)
holy communion
man made god in his own image.
but man shares 97% of the chimp's dna
so god must be mostly ape.
the implications for
holy communion would be to have a banana wafer to suck on, in recognition of the essential preferences of god.
The difference b/t ... ( 6 months ago by AnHonestChristian)
The difference b/t Catholic and Lutheran theology on the Eucharist is that Catholicism teaches the bread and wine are entirely flesh and blood, while Christ's sacrifice is literally being reenacted. Lutheranism states that the bread and wine are also Christ's body and blood, but that they also remain bread and wine, with Christ's sacrifice not being reenacted.

No, Catholics carry ... ( 4 months ago by bobbyke31)
No, Catholics carry out the command of the Lord by celebrating the MEMORIAL of the sacrifice. They don't re-sacrifice him. In so doing, we offer to the Father what he has himself given us: the gifts of his creation, bread and wine which, by the power of the Holy Spirit and by the words of Christ, have become the body and blood of Christ. Christ is thus really and mysteriously made present.
I more recently ... ( 4 months ago by AnHonestChristian)
I more recently learned that the "sacrificial" element of the Mass is actually untrue. My apologies.
You and I share a common ground in regard to the Real Presence and "doing in remembrance," however, no where in Scripture does it say that the elements become the Body and Blood. Rather, as St. Paul reaffirms, the elements are Christ's body and blood. There is no transformation ever mentioned.

i would insult you back,
but nothing i can say or do to you will compare to the pain you will suffer on judgement day.
unless you repent and change your coarse.
God loves you, and Jesus loves you.
The church loves every non-believer and i will pray for you.
the bible never ... ( 4 months ago by XXmusicXXvideosXX)
the bible never states what day to take communion on, so if you want to continue in your baptist ways then thats fine, but there is nothing wrong with taken communion regularly. the fact that jesus shed his blood for us is why we go to church in the first place, so why not celebrate the thing for which we are there.
ohh, and DONT have a nice day.

hell is a stone age idea to keep superstitious and fearful people in their place.
There is no god, and jesus ls like you and me, just another human.
Fight your fears!

Jesus said it was symbolism, Jesus never said this became, only that this represents.
