After showing that sacramental realism exists in neither Ignatius nor in John 6:51b-58, Frederick G. Klawiter argues that Ignatius’ eucharist contained a sacrificial wine libation (poured into a dish on the altar), symbolizing the pouring out of Jesus’ blood in his sacrificial death. Then, by drinking from the libation cup in the eucharist/agape meal, Christians sought unity of agape with one another and the crucified, risen Jesus—while anticipating the possibility of martyrdom.
Frederick G. Klawiter was formerly an ordained minister of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America and a professor in the department of religion, philosophy, and classics at Augustana University (Sioux Falls, South Dakota).
