However, the principal strength of Jones's argument against antinomianism resides in his emphasis upon the fullness of Christ’s person and saving work. Jones shows how a proper understanding of the work of Christ includes both the gospel benefits of free justification and progressive sanctification.

But as Dr. Joel R. Beeke argues in this important new book, this image could not be further from the truth. Dr. Beeke, a pastor, educator, editor, and prolific author, shows instead that Calvinism is a theology that is firmly rooted in Scripture and works its way out into every area of the believer‘s life. He aims to “cover the intellectual and spiritual emphases of Calvinism, the way it influences the church and everyday living, and its ethical and cultural implications.“\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn this comprehensive survey of Reformed Christianity, Dr. Beeke and eight fellow contributors offer twenty-eight chapters that trace the history of Calvinism; explore its key doctrinal tenets, such as the so-called five points of Calvinism and the solas of the Protestant Reformation; reveal how Calvinists have sought to live in devotion to God; and survey Calvinism‘s influence in the church and in the world at large. In the end, the book asserts that the overriding goal of Calvinism is the glory of God. Saturated with Scripture citations and sprinkled with quotations from wise giants of church history, this book presents Calvinism in a winsome and wondrous fashion.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEndorsements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Dr. Joel Beeke has once again performed a great service for the church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The author spares the reader the distraction of trudging through obscure footnotes. In just more than one hundred pages, Fesko ably explains the eternal covenant of redemption among the members of the Trinity, the covenant of works with Adam in the garden, and the covenant of grace by which God saves His people. Especially helpful are treatments of the sacraments and the church in their special relation to God‘s covenants. This book successfully provides an inspiring, biblically based treatment of the central scriptural theme of the covenant.“\u003cbr\u003e—Dr. O.

Dr. Fesko is a brilliant theologian who knows his church history and how covenant theology developed in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, embedding itself centrally in the Reformed confessions. Covenant theology functions the same way as spectacles: both bring into central focus what otherwise remains disparate and unclear. In technical language, covenant theology is a hermeneutic that brings together Genesis and Revelation and everything in between. Without it, the two testaments, Old and New, are not talking to each other. Without it, the sacraments of baptism and the Lord‘s Supper fail to convey their full intent. Without it, our doctrine of the church is severely hampered. Without it, our under­standing of God‘s desire to save sinners from eternity is obscured.
