A Selection of Essays in Baptist Covenant Theology

This book is an effort to continue the discussion going on in our day concerning the important issue of Covenant Theology among Reformed Baptists. With an introduction from James M. Renihan and contributions by Richard Barcellos, Pascal Denault, Samuel Renihan, Jeffrey Johnson, Tom Hicks, James White and many more, this book is an expression of unity and diversity amongst how the leading Reformed Baptist scholars of our day approach the biblical framework of Covenant Theology.

The views of Nehemiah Coxe, John Owen, and John Tombs repeatedly arise throughout this work and the similarities between Owen’s view of the Covenant of Grace and his Baptist contemporaries are discussed and noted.

In ‘Covenant Theology’ the work by Nehemiah Coxe and John Owen on the topic is presented in one book, with Nehemiah Coxe on the Covenant of Works, the Noahic Covenant and the Abrahamic Covenant, and John Owen on the Covenant of Grace. Coxe viewed Owen’s work on the Covenant of Grace as so excellent that he did not write on it himself, seeing no need in light of the position Owen takes.
