Carl Trueman speaks about the Marburg Colloquy, a meeting called by Philip I of Hesse to unite the Protestant states in a political alliance. To accomplish such a union, he sought theological agreement between Martin Luther and Ulrich Zwingli. While Luther and Zwingli could agree on fourteen theological points laid out at the meeting, they could not come to terms on the real presence of Christ in the Lord's Supper. Luther demanded that Christ's physical body be present in the Lord's Supper. This clip is from Christ the Center episode 578 (https://reformedforum.org/ctc578)
