Publisher's Synopsis
There is no institution more delightful to the Christian than the holy sacrament of the Lord's Supper. It is a touching remembrance of a Redeemer's love-a refreshing means of grace to the soul-a happy communion of the Lord's believing family-and a gladdening foretaste of the marriage supper of the Lamb. With what heartfelt gratitude should believers rejoice in such a feast! But it is not to all a feast of joy. Some neglect it from a total want of inclination; some receive it in a careless, worldly spirit, and to them it soon becomes an empty form, like a vessel in which is no water; while others regard it as an awful mystery-as something too high for such as they are, and, like the holy of holies in the temple, beyond the reach of common men."
