Recenzje

Despite appearing in the Westminster Confession of Faith, the doctrine of the covenant of works is both less studied and more criticized than many other doctrines. In this important book, Fesko sympathetically traces the fortunes of the covenant of works from the sixteenth-century to the present. Fesko makes a compelling case that the doctrine has roots in both early modern exegesis and doctrinal elements prior to the Reformation.
