Description: Rediscovering the Lord's Supper by Markus Barth Following his fathers classic work CHURCH DOGMATICS, Markus Barth considered the doctrine of the Lords Supper, which, had not received a full treatment. His work resulted in an exegesis of the Lords Supper texts in the Synoptics, the Fourth Gospel, and the Pauline letters. His perspective sees the Lords supper and its accomanying Agape meal as a symbolic event that allows Gods people to commune in an atmosphere that remains open to all, including the Jews, whose Passover continues to shed light on this sacrament. His presentation covers the Lords Supper, Passover, the relationship of Christians and Jews, and the participation of children in communion. He challenges the definitions of Baptism, Eucharist, and Ministry as expressed in the Lima Document, offering one of the most sharply stated alternatives available. His discussion provides a reexamination of the Lords Supper as a symbol of ecumenism--the opportunity for all Gods people to celebrate together. This approach makes an important ecumenical contribution to understanding the Lords Supper from a New Testament perspective.
