| Summary |
"The Communion and Communicant" by Rev. Edward Hoare is a religious publication written in the mid-19th century. This book delves into the significance and understanding of the sacrament of the Lord's Supper, particularly focusing on its nature as a means of grace, remembrance, and spiritual nourishment. It attempts to guide believers on how to approach this sacrament with reverence and understanding. In the text, Hoare articulates the sacrament's purpose and outlines the importance of partaking in it worthily. He emphasizes that the Lord's Supper is not just a routine observance but a vital communion with Christ and a memorial of His sacrifice. He addresses common misconceptions and fears regarding unworthy participation and explores the characteristics of those who may eat and drink unworthily. Through scripture references and theological reflections, Hoare aims to promote a deeper appreciation of the communion, encouraging believers to examine their hearts and approach the sacrament with faith, recognizing it as an opportunity for spiritual growth, forgiveness, and connection with Christ.
