The book ""Writings and Disputations of Thomas Cranmer: Relative to the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper"" is a collection of writings by Thomas Cranmer, the Archbishop of Canterbury during the reign of King Henry VIII and the early years of Queen Elizabeth I. The book focuses on Cranmer's thoughts and beliefs regarding the sacrament of the Lord's Supper, also known as communion or the Eucharist.The writings in this book include Cranmer's own words on the subject, as well as transcripts of debates and discussions he had with other theologians and scholars. These debates were often heated and contentious, reflecting the deep divisions within the Christian church during the 16th century.Cranmer's views on the sacrament of the Lord's Supper were controversial at the time, and continue to be debated by scholars and theologians today. He believed that the bread and wine used in communion were symbolic of Christ's body and blood, rather than being literally transformed into them. This view was seen as heretical by some, and Cranmer was eventually executed for his beliefs.Overall, this book provides a fascinating insight into the religious debates and controversies of the 16th century, and the beliefs and writings of one of the most important figures of the English Reformation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
