Product Description

Product Description

Robert Bruce preached these sermons on the sacrament in 1589 at Giles Cathedral where he was a successor to John Knox. He gives us a powerful conception through the Lord's supper of the saving work of Jesus Christ. This modern edition has been translated and edited by T. F. Torrance

Synopsis

Robert Bruce's famous sermons were first delivered in 1589. Behind them lies a powerful conception of the Person and Saving Work of Christ. Bruce has left us a legacy, which, in the words of the editor of the 1614 edition, is 'worthy to be written in letters of gold'.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Absolute Classic 1 Dec 2007
By C. Sicks - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I wish I had discovered this book years ago. Bruce was a powerful theologian and preacher in Scotland. The sermons are from 1589, but if the thought of reading such old sermons concerns you, rest assured. The translation is easy to read, yet the power of his delivery and the truth of his theology shine through.

He does the church a great service in the way he unpacks the relation between the sign (bread & wine) and the thing signified (Christ.) And his pastor's heart is apparent in the way he repeatedly calls for repentant hearts to come to the table to receive spiritual food. Yet his focus remains always on Christ and his finished work on the cross.

If you take communion, if you share in the Lord's Supper, and if you want to understand what you are doing when you eat the bread and wine, then you will be greatly encouraged and strengthened by this book.

If you are a pastor who has the privilege of preaching the Word and distributing the Lord's Supper, you will find in this book heaps of sermon inspiration and clarifying exposition to edify yourself and your flock.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good book, poor formatting 5 Oct 2012
By K. H. Acton - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Robert Bruce's sermons on the Lord's Supper are very helpful. They stand as a witness to the classic Presbyterian doctrine. However, the formatting is quite distracting. Several paragraphs repeat at odd intervals. Also the font is not alterable on the Kindles or apps--which is bad because it is an ugly sans-serif.
4.0 out of 5 stars A good look 9 Nov 2012

Found Bruce's views interesting and challenging. I have grown up in Christian circles, but those have been from a different perspective than Bruce. Here, one can see the more traditional Presbyterian theology explained. And it's worth reading if you're interested in this subject matter.
