Sacramentarians

From BiblePortal Wikipedia

Charles Buck Theological Dictionary [1]

A general name given for all such as have held erroneous opinions respecting the Lord's supper. The term is chiefly applied among Catholics, by way of reproach to the Lutherans, Calvinists, and other Protestants.

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [2]

a controversial name given by the Lutherans to the Zwinglians to designate their belief that the consecrated elements in the eucharist are merely sacramental symbols, and not in any way the means by which the body and blood of Christ are really and truly present to, and conveyed to, the faithful partaker of them. The third volume of Schlusselburg's Hoereticorum Catalogus contains 492 pages "De Secta Sacramentariorum qui Cingliani seu Calvinistae vocantur." (See Zwinglians).
