Deep dives

Understanding the Distinction in Covenant Theology

1689 Federalists view the Old and New Covenants as distinct, unlike the perspective of Westminster Covenant Theology. While Westminster sees continuity in the law unless repealed, 1689 Federalists recognize a theological distinction based on natural and positive law. The focus is on God's moral law transcending both covenants and applied in light of the essence of the law.
