Comments on: Communion as Redemption Accomplished and Applied https://reformedforum.org/communion-as-redemption-accomplished-and-applied/ Reformed Theological Resources Tue, 21 Jun 2016 19:06:36 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 By: Michael Pursley https://reformedforum.org/communion-as-redemption-accomplished-and-applied/#comment-3492798 Tue, 21 Jun 2016 19:06:36 +0000 http://reformedforum.wpengine.com/?p=4976#comment-3492798 I have a concern. For while the author incorporates a number of very pious terms, sounds very “Reformed,” a lot of these terms are cloaked in ambiguity that I believe need clarification.
Why do I say this? Because the author uses the same terms, and the same logic patterns as many of those who hold the view of the new “federal vision.” And while he doesn’t completely land there, what he says can certainly be inferred to lending itself in that direction.

Three things that the author could do to clear up this obliquenesses would be to;
One, To precisely define what he means by the term, ” truly commune in his body and blood.”
Two, the author needs to precisely define what he means by, “the relationship Scripture has shown us to exist between the coextensive nature of the acquisition of salvation and its application.”
Three, while the author has shown that there is a difference between the Reformed view we have on communion as opposed to transubstantiation and consubstantiation, he has not really shown this line in differentiation between his view, and the “federal vision.”
