God, to help our faith, does not only give us an audible Word, but a visible sign. But more than this, the Supper was a time in which to partake of the benefits of Christs death by faith, to be fed and cherished by the Lord in his own banqueting house, and to obtain a foretaste of the glory which will be fully realized only in heaven. Watsons aim was to stimulate greater love to Christ in His people, and to enhance their appreciation of the Supper as a spiritual feast for all believers. His fine exposition shows the rich provision made in the Supper for all who love the Lord, while it also lays bare the emptiness of all mere sacramentalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/banneroftruth.org\/media\/flippingbook\/LordsSupper\/lordssupper.html\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eView an excerpt here.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Banner of Truth","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":10489193070635,"sku":"9780851518541","price":14.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2773\/2624\/products\/9780851518541-ppb-the-lords-supper-watson-thomas.jpg?v=1647603144"},{"product_id":"9780852347942-feasting-with-christ-meditations-on-the-lords-supper-beeke-joel","title":"Feasting with Christ: Meditations on the Lord's Supper","description":"\u003c!-- FXB180119 --\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book is structured in three parts so as to guide the believer through preparing for the Supper, partaking of the Supper, and reflecting on the Supper in a Christ-centered way\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Evangelical Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":10489286819883,"sku":"9780852347942","price":25.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2773\/2624\/products\/9780852347942-Beeke-Feasting-with-Christ.jpg?v=1600066305"},{"product_id":"9780875522029-lords-supper-the-eternal-word-in-broken-bread-letham-robert","title":"Lord's Supper, The: Eternal Word in Broken Bread","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThroughout the century of the Reformation, the Lord’s Supper was the litmus test that defined a person’s religion.

What bearing does the incarnation of Christ have on the redemption of the world? How are believers on earth united with the ascended Christ who is in heaven? Is Christ really present in the Lord's Supper? And if so, then how is he made to be present? These are just a few of the age-old questions that Charles Hodge and John W.
