Presenting overwhelming evidence that the covenant of works republished at Sinai is biblical teaching, the authors ably refute recent attacks upon the classic Reformed understanding of the grace of free justification on the basis of the entire obedience and sacrifice of Christ alone and they also treat differences among Reformed understandings in a respectful and non-condemnatory manner.… (meer)
