Digital Logos Edition
According to John Williamson Nevin, the Lord’s Supper is at the very heart of our worship as Christians and the church itself centers on this divine sacrament. In The Mystical Presence, often considered Nevin’s magnum opus, he defends and advocates the Reformed Church’s practice and its interpretation in an attempt to combat the sectarianism and controversy brewing in the German church. He aimed to restore the sacramental and incarnational principles and theology of the Protestant Reformation; here, he clearly and methodically outlines the doctrine and theory of the Eucharist.

John Williamson Nevin (1803–1886) was an American theologian and professor. He studied at Princeton University and was a professor of biblical literature at Western Theological Seminary in Allegheny, Pennsylvania and an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church. Well-versed in German, he studied contemporary German theologians, and eventually converted to the German Reformed Church, accepting a position at the Church’s seminary in Mercersburg, PA. He and his colleagues developed a conservative doctrinal position eventually labeled the “Mercersburg Theology.”
