Smytonite Controversy [1]

was a dispute which arose in the Secession Kirk about the middle of the 18th century respecting the elevation of the elements in celebrating the Lord's supper. One of the ministers of that body, Mr. Smyton, of Kilmaurs, considered such elevation an essential part of the ordinance, but the synod determined that it should be left an open question.
