62 HISTORY OF THE VA CONFERENCE, E.U.B. CHURCH—D.F. GLOVIER
The Lord’s Supper is not merely a token of love and union that
Christians ought to have among themselves, but it is rather a mystery or
representation of our redemption by the sufferings and death of Christ;
insomuch that such as rightly, worthily and faithfully receive the same
partake of the body and blood of Christ by faith, as the imparting means, not
in a bodily, but a spiritual manner, in eating the broken bread and in
drinking the blessed cup.
