One of the great tragedies of the history of the church is that the Eucharist, intended to both symbolise and promote the unity of the church, has become a primary dividing point among Christians. Today, the Eucharistic prayer of invocation is assumed to involve transubstantiation, and is lauded or derided on the basis of that understanding. Few users of the American or Scottish Prayerbooks or their descendants realise that the Eucharistic theology of those that (re)introduced that liturgy with its invocation into the Anglican stream categorically rejected transubstantiation. In his 1831 work, The Christian Sacrifice in the Eucharist, Bishop Alexander Jolly promoted for a wide audience a view of the Eucharist that had flourished in Scotland for centuries. That Eucharistic doctrine has the potential to bridge the gap between major strands of Christianity.
