However, if you’re new to the Covenant Theology world as I am, this book is tough to get through. Renihan assumes you already know all about the arguments between Presbyterians & Particular Baptists regarding covenant theology & infant baptism. A few pages in I realized I was going to be lost, so I had to pause & read 2 other books on covenant theology just so I could resume this book. (The two I read were AW Pink’s Divine Covenants & Van Dorn’s Covenant Theology: A Reformed Baptist Primer.) Even after reading these, I feel like I’m listening in on a conversation with people who are totally in the know & I’m barely able to keep up. Here is a direct quote regarding John Owen’s views on covenant theology from page 206: “Though both covenants were founded on promises, the promises of the covenant of grace were ‘efficaciously assumptive,’ but not ‘remunerative. The promises of the covenant of works were remunerative, ‘respecting an antecedent obedience in us.’”
It’s an excellent book, I just felt it was a little overwhelming when you’re new to the Covenant Theology discussion. I think the more I learn about the topic, the more I will be able to come back later & enjoy this book in an even greater measure. ( )
