Excerpt from Help to Devout Communion: A Manual of Devotions for the Holy Communion
The Holy Communion is both the highest act of worship possible to the Christian, and also the richest means open to him for the reception of supernatural grace. By it we do Mow Ike Lord's deal/12 till He came pleading with the Father the merits of the One Sacrifice offered up on the cross, thus taking part in Christ's great act of interces sion, and holding up before men the atone ment which was made for us upon Calvary as our one and only propitiation. Hence the Holy Communion is called by the Church our sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving; not an offering for sin, but a thank-offering for a perfected redemption. But there is an other view of the blessed Sacrament. To the believing soul it is the means of a true and living union with the glorified Redeemer.
