520 _a"The Glorious Law-Giver, and the Obedient Subject" by J. Church is a religious sermon focused on the significance of the Lord's Supper within the Christian faith, likely written in the early 19th century. This theological work explores the authority of Jesus Christ as the mediator and king for believers, emphasizing the nature and purpose of Holy Communion and who is eligible to partake in it. The text lays out a framework for understanding the ordinances of the church, particularly the sacramental nature of Communion, and addresses lawful participation in light of biblical teachings. In this sermonic text, J. Church delves into the threefold office of Christ—Prophet, Priest, and King—and its implications for believers in their faith and practice. The author emphasizes that the Lord’s Supper is not mere ritual but an integral communion with Christ, meant to remind participants of His suffering and sacrifice. Church outlines the characteristics of individuals who have a right to partake in this ordinance, addressing potential objections from those who may feel unworthy. Ultimately, he encourages believers not to let doubts of their unworthiness keep them from partaking, underscoring that true readiness to celebrate the Supper comes from recognizing one’s need for Christ.
