Beskrivelse
What's in a hyphen? Quite a bit, sometimes Should it be new-covenant theology or new covenant-theology? Covenant theology was invented in the late 16th century. Christ, fulfilling the old covenant, established the new covenant. And new-covenant theology is nothing other than the theology of the new covenant, the gospel. So those who think that new-covenant theology was invented in the 1980s could not be more wrong. It is actually older than the hills, having originated in God's eternal decree. What is more, in covenant- theology's heyday - the late-puritan era in England - not a few preachers and writers resolutely stood against the tide to set out the glories of the new covenant. One such was Robert Purnell. David Gay, culling a few gems from Purnell's works, has killed three birds with one stone. He has shown that new-covenant theology is not a new kid on the block. He has shown that the so-called antinomians of the 17th century might - just might - have something to teach believers today. Above all, he has reminded us once more of those scriptural doctrines that are so often dismissed, even though they are so desperately needed. Gay hopes that this little work will enable Purnell's words to travel far and do much good, encouraging many believers to search the Scriptures - not the Confessions - for themselves.
