The study of in Christ language in New Testament scholarship has received widespread attention in recent years. Nevertheless despite all the perspectives from which scholars have treated this topic one aspect of in Christ language has received only scant attention: its ritual or sacramental aspect. While theological epistemological and linguistic factors have contributed to the downplaying of rituals like baptism and the Lord's Supper in the New Testament Yu Chen develops the framework of a ritual transformation model from ritual theories to place the study of ritual in its rightful place. Accordingly the author focuses on the historical and social implications of the ritual performance of baptism and the Lord's Supper which are used to explain the mechanisms of union with Christ. Finally he argues that rituals provide participants with access to the transformative experience of encountering the risen Messiah.
