I would suspect that there may be less difference between us as to what happens to a believer when he takes communion than there would be between either of us and a Baptist.

The insurmountable gulf between a Calvinist and a Catholic with regard to Communion is to whether there is a change in the nature of the elements. And since neither of us is likely to change the view of the other, it’s probably best on that point to acknowledge the gulf and move on as to that point.

In any event, I’d count these exchanges as another success for the proponents of Ecuminecal threads.

I agree wholeheartedly on both counts - thank you for this discussion.
