SACRAMENTARIANS

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 979 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: SAC-SAR
SACRAMENTARIANS , the name given to those who during the Reformation controversies not only denied the Roman Catholic "
transubstantiation
 ," but also the Lutheran " con-substantiation." They comprised two parties: (r) the followers of
Capito
 , Carlstadt and
Bucer
 , who at the diet of Augsburg presented the Confessio Tetrapolitana from Strassburg, Constance, Lindau and Memmingen; (2) the followers of the Swiss reformer Zwingli, who to the same diet presented his private
confession
  of faith. The doctrinal standpoint was the samean admission of a spiritual presence of Christ which the devout soul can receive and enjoy, but a
total
  rejection of any
physical
  or corporeal presence. After holding their own view for some years the four cities accepted the
Confession
  of Augsburg, and were merged in the general
body
  of
Lutherans
 ; but Zwingli's position was incorporated in the Helvetic Confession. It is a curious
inversion
  of terms that in
recent
  years has led to the name Sacramentarians being applied to those who hold a high or extreme view of the efficacy of the sacraments.
