He argues that a service without the sacraments is
outwardly incomplete. He asks: What right have we to separate word and sacrament?
He thinks our services (our preaching and listening, our giving thanks) would
be transformed if they began with baptism and moved towards the Lord’s Supper.
This incompleteness of our usual services, this lack of sacraments, is a
fundamental defect which may account for the fruitlessness of other liturgical reforms.
