I enter the thread just to say, I think you mean #28.Ah, I did not know Eucharistic adoration was addressed in the 39 articles. So when you mentioned it I looked it up and sure enough it’s addressed in article #25.
As Anglican, I always found the wording odd. It doesn’t actually condemn it, it regards it as not an ordinance ie not a “ you must” I felt it leaves wriggle room.
As Anglican, now catholic, I am not challenging Anglican belief, but it is something I felt was left woolly in the wording, neither condemned nor approved.
The exact text at end #28 is here:
“The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper was not by Christ’s ordinance reserved, carried about, lifted up, or worshipped.”
Just FYI
