Focusing on the often-overlooked ritual aspect of "in Christ" language, the book explores the significance of baptism and the Lord's Supper in New Testament scholarship. Yu Chen introduces a ritual transformation model, examining the historical and social contexts of these practices. He argues that these rituals are essential for understanding the mechanisms of union with Christ, offering participants a transformative experience of encountering the risen Messiah. This perspective challenges the traditional theological and epistemological views that have marginalized the role of rituals.
