Notes 1. Lawrence Hull Stookey, "Then Sings My Soul: Rejoicing in the Baptismal Covenant,** Doxology 6:18. 2. Stookey, Baptism: Christ's Act in the Church (Nashville: Abingdon, 1982), 15, 25, 28, 135-137. 26. 3. James F. White, Sacraments as Cod's Self-Giving (Nashville: Abingdon, 1983), 4. Ibid., 41. 5. Ibid., 43. 6. William H. Willimon, Remember Who You Are: Baptism, A Model for Christian Life (Nashville: The Upper Room, 1980), 82-85. 7. Ibid., 85. 8. Ibid., 87. 9. Ibid., 90. 10. For example, I think Stookey, in discussing baptism and salvation, leans too heavily on baptism's corporate nature, stressing its value for the church and probably ntinimizing its significance for the individual Christian (cf. 71-74). White's inclusion of ordination and Christian weddings and funerals in his chapter on "The Reform of Sacramental Practice** seems to suggest that the aforementioned are sacraments (cf. 131-134). Most United Methodists would not accept this. I liked Willimon*s point that "we get born, reborn, in baptism** (cf. 85) but wonder if his making baptism and rebirth a lifetime process does not minimize the sacrament itself as the foundation and anchor of our faith, I prefer Luther's comment, "When faith comes, baptism is complete'* (cf. Luther's Works [Philadelphia: Muhlenberg Press, 1958] 40:246). 2. 11. Baptism, Eucharist, and Ministry (Geneva: World Council of Churches, 1982), 12.
