The Lord's Supper in the Theology of Martin Chemnitz Bjarne - Logia

| The Lord’s Supper
rejected by the Formula of Concord
296, 297
The Two Natures in Christ makes an
important contribution to the under
standing of the Lord’s Supper 11
Use, see Action 30–38
Vajta, Vilmos #24, #95
Veneration of the Sacrament 254–305
no one who accepts the Sacramental
Union denies that Christ should
be venerated in the “action of the
Supper” 259, 260
veneration not restricted to time or
place 262–264
as expounded and confessed by
Luther 265–267, 281–284
in veneration faith is the allimportant
thing 269, 376
differences between the Roman
Church and Lutheran Church on
the veneration 285–295
veneration of the visible forms of
the onsecrated elements not
allowable 286, 287, 303
needs the inner demand of true faith
291, 292
veneration observed in the literature
of the Early Church 294
is a part of the genuine confession of
faith in the Real Presence 295
veneration and the Formula of
Concord 296–305
the Formula rejects only the
veneration outside the “prescribed
use” 297, 298
veneration rightly used does not
justify veneration apart from its
use 298
veneration of the Sacrament in its
right use will be denied only by an
Arian heretic 299
Chemnitz’s formulation taken into
the Formula of Concord 301
Verba. The Verba are the sedes doctrinae
for the Lord’s Supper 44–63, 353
constitute the last will and testament
of Christ 44
to be interpreted literally 49–52
declare that the same body sacrificed
on the cross is distributed 70, 71
the Verba’s reference to natural
properties are not to be
understood as disrupting the
personal union of Christ’s two
natures 72
the Verba used in the First Supper
retain their proper and natural
meaning 174, 175
the Verba achieve the Real Presence
192, 331
to be spoken at the command of
Christ 193
to be spoken or chanted loudly for the
entire congregation 337
Verba not to be changed or
misinterpreted lest the sacrament
be lost 471, 472
Vicarious Atonement, is the source of all
the benefits of the Sacrament 399
Victorinus, a Sacramentarian, looks only
partly at the Verba, but more
generally at the religion of all
times 46
Walther, C. F. W., his theology is not
bound to the seventeenth century but
to the Book of Concord and Luther
407; #88, #89
Weinberg, J. R. #36
Wiese, Markus Fredrick #6
Withholding of the Cup contrary to the
command of Scripture 42, 201
not justified on the basis of the
personal union of the Two
Natures 412
Wittenberg Faculty #78
Wolferinus, denied an effective
consecration 220, 340–352; #81
Words of Institution, see Verba
Worship, see Veneration
Worthy Eating,
see Bodily eating without faith and
Faith accepts … gift … Supper
worthy eating does not
consist in man’s purity 387
worthy eating longs for the grace of
God 387
Wycliffe 131, 148
Zwingli, U., denies the communicatio
majestatis 79
holds that there is no support for the
sacramental union 150
