About This Book

The author, writing from imprisonment, replies to a critic's refutation of his earlier small treatise on the sacrament, defending that belief in the sacrament as Christ's natural body present in the bread and wine is not necessary for salvation. He argues for reading scriptural phrases non-literally when context warrants, distinguishes spiritual reception by faith from carnal eating, examines theological objections, and offers scriptural and patristic support. The volume concludes with records of the author's examination by bishops and the charges that led to his condemnation.
