Church's View on the Eucharist Part 1

And yet how many Evangelicals and Protestants idolize that Bible and worship it and not the God of the Bible. They are so busy proving the Bible to be true that they forget to worship the Reality of the Triune God which the written Word brings us into. My good Baptist friend asked me what I thought about Communion. He asked me do I believe in Transubstantiation. I said no. Why do I not believe in Transubstantiation is because Transubstantiation is almost akin to monphysiteism and docietism. The Monphysites believe that Christ had only one nature mainly his divine with a little bit of humanity. Docietism believes in the Divine nature with the mere appearance of a human nature. When I hear of accidents and substance; the accidents being the appearances of bread and wine and the substance being the Body, Blood, Soul, Divinity, etc of Christ under the appearance of bread and wine. I agree there is a change in the elements but the stress on the Transubstantiation is on the Divine totally disregarding the created elements of bread and wine.
