博客來＂The Absolute Impossibility of Transubstantiation Demonstrated＂ is a theological treatise by Samuel Johnson (1649-1703), originally published in 1687. This work presents a detailed critique of the doctrine of transubstantiation, a central tenet of Catholic belief concerning the Eucharist. Johnson argues against the idea that the bread and wine used in the sacrament literally transform into the body and blood of Christ, maintaining it as both philosophically and theologically untenable.
Johnson’s demonstration is rooted in Protestant theology, reflecting the religious controversies of his time. This text provides valuable insight into the religious debates and intellectual climate of the late 17th century and showcases the arguments used by Protestant theologians against Catholic doctrines. It remains a significant historical document for those studying religious history, Reformation theology, and the development of Protestant thought.
