WLC Question #177

from Larger For Life · host Blue Ridge Institute for Theological Education

In this episode of Larger for Life, our hosts continue their study and discussion through the Catechism, this time examining Westminster Larger Catechism Question #177:  Q. 177. Wherein do the sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s supper differ? A. The sacraments of baptism and the Lord’s supper differ, in that baptism is to be administered but once, with water, to be a sign and seal of our regeneration and ingrafting into Christ, and that even to infants; whereas the Lord’s supper is to be administered often, in the elements of bread and wine, to represent and exhibit Christ as spiritual nourishment to the soul, and to confirm our continuance and growth in him, and that only to such as are of years and ability to examine themselves. (To bypass the banter, skip ahead to about 9:20, unless you are interested in hearing about Dolly Parton's death, a “9 to 5” parody, jokes at the expense of our friend Zoe Miller, snake-handling Episcopalians, etc.)
