John For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever contributed to this series of articles knows very little about the comparison of Christian religions. This definitely is not helpful. From what I can see, the difference is that while Christ is mysteriously present in the bread and the wine, He is not actually eaten.
That Christ appears without appearing. The manducatio indignorum is the contention that even unbelievers eating and drinking in the Eucharist really eat and drink the body and blood of Christ.
This is not a natural or personal union, as is the case with God and Christ. It is also perhaps a different union from that which the dove has with the Holy Spirit, and the flame with the angel, but it is also assuredly a sacramental union. It relates to doctrine of the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist…]. Sounds more like Gnostic secret knowledge than anything Jesus actually taught. Let a person examine himself, then, and so eat of the bread and drink of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body eats and drinks judgment on himself.
That is why many of you are weak and ill, and some have died. But if we judged ourselves truly, we would not be judged. Here, Paul portrays the Body and Blood of Christ as objective realities, independent of the belief or faith of any person who partakes of it. Consequently, an unbeliever takes it to his judgement. Pastor Spomer, great words and quotes from Scripture.
This is why the Presbyterian faith has put so much emphasis on not to partake in an unworthy manner. We were taught this even before being confirmed when we went thru the. But although we in the Presbyterian faith believe in the Real presence in the bread and wine…we do not believe in transubstantiation nor the belief that the Lutherans have in consubstantiation.

They believe that Christ died on the cross for the sins of all of mankind, whether they were people who had faith in him, people who will have faith in him in times to come, or people who never had and never will have faith in him.
Closely related to this is another difference between the two schools of thought — their stances on predestination. However, Lutherans take a more liberal view, believing that anyone who has faith will be saved, and those who are damned will be thrown into Hell not because God pre-decided or wanted it, but because of their own sins.
In relation to several traditions in the Christian faith, Lutherans tend to interpret them literally, while Presbyterians see them more as symbolic in nature. Finally, while both schools of thought consult the Bible and take it to be the Holy Book, their interpretations are different. Lutheranism Lutheranism is a branch of Western Christianity that is based on the theology of German reformer Martin Luther, who stood up against the Roman Catholic Church in order to bring about the Protestant Reformation.
