Lutherans at bay
By Peter Leithart
At several points, Bizer notes that the Reformed orthodox critics of Cartesian philosophy and its application to theology formulated their arguments to buttress their opposition to Lutheran ideas of the real presence. Peter van Mastricht “resists the proposition that God could do something contradictory; one of the reasons for this is that the Reformed position regarding the doctrine of the Lord’s Supper would then be abandoned in favor of the Lutherans.”
