Description : The doctrine of justification and covenant
theology are two of the most basic and yet most misunderstood doctrines in the
contemporary Reformed world. This volume addresses both doctrines carefully,
biblically, theologically, and practically. Few books address both covenant
theology and justification, and relate these two doctrines to our confessions
and virtually no treatments address it from the point of view of the theological
departments: Exegetical theology, Systematic Theology, Historical Theology, and
Practical Theology. This volume is intended for an academic audience but it is
accessible to intelligent laity.
“The New Perspectives on Paul and the Federal Vision have posed
grave challenges to the biblical doctrine of justification by faith alone and to
the covenant theology taught by the Scripture. I am therefore extraordinarily
grateful that the faculty of Westminster Seminary California has provided the
church with this fine collection of essays. Readers will find in it able,
thorough, and biblical responses to the New Perspectives and to the Federal
Vision. They will find no ground – exegetical, theological, historical,
homiletical – untraversed. Reformed ministers, elders, or students cannot afford
to bypass careful study of this volume.”
