As Haweis makes clear, a participant who profits from the Lord’s Table is one who has “found acceptance with God through the righteousness of the Savior, and . . . experienced the mighty power of His grace on their souls.” Having established who a worthy participant is, Haweis next gives valuable directions regarding what should be considered before, during, and after Communion. In two concluding chapters, Haweis offers various models of prayer for the Christian who struggles with it and then provides brief meditations on key select passages of Scripture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short, the design of \u003ci\u003e The Communicant’s Spiritual Companion \u003c\/i\u003e is to strengthen the Christian through an examination of the Lord’s Supper, prayer, and the Word, three essential means of grace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEndorsement\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“The aim of this rich and searching little book by eighteenth-century Anglican minister Thomas Haweis is to awaken in us a serious concern for eternity and a genuine interest in the means of grace. It not only points us to Jesus as the only hope for sin-sick souls, but will help you better understand and appreciate the Lord's Supper, which seals to us the blessings of His covenant of grace.
