Excerpt from The Lord's Supper: The Continued Feast on the One Completed Sacrifice It does not appear, for instance, it has been lost sight of, in the invitation in the communion office of the first Prayer Book of Edward VI., "Christe our Pascal Lambe is offered up for us once for all, when He bare our sinnes on His Body upon the crosse, for He is the very Lambe of God that taketh away the sinnes of the worlde, wherefore let us kepe a joyfull and holy feast with the Lorde." That the crucifying of our Lord was a sacrifice all men must admit. It was not, indeed, done in accordance with the ritual of God's Church, nor was it the official act of the priests, though one of Christ's own disciples conspired with the chief priests to bring it to accomplishment. It was not a sacrifice that could be made by God's priests, for the victim was a human being - nay, was the God-man.
