On the night he was betrayed... So what really happens when those called Christian repeat the event called communion, the Lord's supper, Last Supper, the breaking of the bread, the remembrance (and so many other obscure ways to say the same thing)? This outline of options (historical and contemporary) is a sort of taxonomy... a 'Where's Waldo' for you to find yourself or your tradition. So, can you?
Where is Christ in the Eucharist. This paper explores the four primary ways that people have understood Christ's presence at the Lord's Supper. In this paper, I argue that the insights of John Calvin clarify the doctrine of the Lord’s Supper by demonstrating how Jesus is present in the Lord’s Supper.
While Christian Brethren theology can hardly be limited to their approach to the Lord’s Supper, it is nevertheless clear that their ecclesiology, spirituality and theology are reflected in their Remembrance Meeting to a degree that is perhaps unusual in non-sacramentalist evangelical churches. This multi-faceted significance of the Lord’s Supper in the Brethren movement testifies to the crucial importance of a robust theology of the sacraments for authentic Christian faith and practice.

On Jesus' Last Supper"In the Gospels, Jesus’ last supper involves custom and legal issues: chronological discrepancies between the Synoptics and John, a mock trial before the Sanhedrin, two trials before Pilate (John), and so on.

Jeremias’ now classical view: the Synoptics display a somewhat loose connection with the Jubilees sectarian calendar, while John’s chronology seems to be historically more accurate."

This article aims to revise predominant theological understandings of the Lord’s Supper that are present in today’s Christian churches which stress that somehow Jesus is present in the elements of the bread and wine. The author argues that in the Lord’s Supper Jesus is present among the believers, but he offers a critique of Zwingli’s view that shapes the celebration of the Lord’s Supper in free churches. Accordingly, the author argues that the Lord’s Supper must be understood as a full meal around the table which is focused on mutual fellowship between believers and Jesus, and not as a sacrifice in connection with an altar. Furthermore, the Lord’s Supper should be a full meal and not just a “snack”, a joyful act of a gathered community and not an individualistic penitential act, and it should be a regular part of the Sunday service with an importance equal to preaching. The first part of the article offers an overview of the four major theological views of the Lord’s Supper, the se...
