In this PDF booklet, Michael Davies examines the evidence behind the Early Church history of the practice of Communion in the hand and why it was eventually abandoned and even condemned.
He also investigates into the supposed modern-day "permission" for its use in the Novus Ordo Missae.
Integral to the study are how the Protestant communion services were created to deny the Real Presence and how and why contemporary ecumenical influences campaigned for the return of Communion in the hand.
