Paragraph 32.7
Chapter 32: Of the Lord’s Supper
Worthy Receivers, outwardly partaking of the visible Elements in this Ordinance, do then also inwardly, by Faith, really and indeed, yet not carnally and corporally, but spiritually receive, and feed upon Christ crucified, and all the Benefits of his Death; the Body and Blood of Christ being then not corporally or carnally, but spiritually present to the Faith of Believers in that Ordinance, as the Elements themselves are to their outward Senses.a
a. 1 Corinthians 10:16; 11:23–26
1 Corinthians 10:16
10:16 The cup of blessing which we bless, is it not the communion of the blood of Christ? The bread which we break, is it not the communion of the body of Christ?
10:16 Is not the cup of blessing that we bless a participation in the blood of Christ? And is not the bread that we break a participation in the body of Christ?
1 Corinthians 11:23–26
11:23 For I have received of the Lord that which also I delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus the same night in which he was betrayed took bread: 11:24 And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat: this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of me. 11:25 After the same manner also he took the cup, when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as ye drink it, in remembrance of me. 11:26 For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.
11:23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night He was betrayed, took bread, 11:24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, "This is My body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of Me." 11:25 In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me." 11:26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until He comes.
