The Mystical Presence is a book written by John Williamson Nevin in 1867. It is a theological work that seeks to defend and explain the Reformed or Calvinistic doctrine of the Holy Eucharist. Nevin argues that the Eucharist is not simply a symbolic representation of Christ’s sacrifice, but rather a mystical presence of Christ himself in the elements of bread and wine. Nevin begins by examining the history of the Eucharist in the Christian church, tracing its development from the early church to the Reformation. He then delves into the theological arguments for and against the concept of the mystical presence of Christ in the Eucharist. He argues that the Reformed or Calvinistic view of the Eucharist is the most biblically and historically accurate, and that it provides a more meaningful and transformative experience for the believer.Throughout the book, Nevin draws on a wide range of sources, including the writings of the early church fathers, the Protestant reformers, and contemporary theologians. He also includes extensive biblical references and theological analysis to support his arguments.Overall, The Mystical Presence is a detailed and scholarly work that provides a comprehensive defense of the Reformed or Calvinistic doctrine of the Holy Eucharist. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and theology of the Eucharist, as well as for those seeking a deeper understanding of the significance of this sacrament in the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
