Confession Concerning Christ's Supper (
1528) (Vom Abendmahl Christi, Bekenntnis) is a theological treatise written by
Martin Luther affirming the
Real Presence of the body and blood of Christ in the
Eucharist, defining Luther's position as the
Sacramental union. Notable among its respondents were
Huldrych Zwingli and
Johannes Oecolampadius, who denied the Real Presence. Luther also discussed the
eucharistic views of
John Wycliffe in this document. The third part of the work is a concise confession of Luther's Christian faith.
