Covenant of Works, Covenant of Grace

[John of Japan]

Oh and JoJ I'm happy to hear that The Lord has given you your own condo!

How wonderful.

We're praising the Lord, who clearly led us each step of the way. All the rooms are larger than usual: two bedrooms, two baths, a kitchen, dining room, and living room, and a lovely sun room where my wife has her desk and rocking chair. And there is a picnic area with gas grills, and a pool (which right now in Wisconsin you can probably skate on. )

In recommending that book, I was thinking more of the general reader than a scholar like yourself.
More heavyweight works on the covenants are The Divine Covenants by A. W. Pink (Pietan Publications but available on lined here: http://www.reformedbaptist.co.uk/The Divine Covenants by AW Pink.pdf or Recovering a Covenantal Heritage edited by Richard Barcellos (RBAP. ISBN 9-781499-714487). The latter has contributions from James and Michael Renihan, James White, Stephen Weaver Jr. and the Puritan John Owen, and recommendations by such Baptist luminaries as Tom Nettles, Voddie Baucham, Conrad Mbewe & Nathan Finn.

Loads more stuff on the 1689 Federalism website.

Thank you. Perhaps I can do some research over the summer, and maybe even revise my lectures.

Sorry, all desire to discuss covenant theology on the BB has been driven far from my mind by its adherents. (I don't include you as one, since you once told how you disagreed with Berkhof.) And I don't think it would be proper to discuss my student's paper on the Internet. She's a lovely, young, faithful Christian with a wonderful future in ministry for our Lord Jesus Christ.

I have moved form a Pre trib premil to a Covenant preMil position, so how bad is that to you then?

It's not a moral wrong, simply a theological blunder.

It's not a theological blunder at all. Be happy, Y1; you moved a step closer to the truth.

Actually, an hermeneutics blunder that lead to a theological blunder.

How so?
