The Federal Vision

Steve Wilkins writes, "Covenant is the central teaching of the Word of God; it describes a relationship with the Triune God through Jesus Christ, His only Begotten Son. To be in covenant is to be in real communion with God, attendant with real privileges and real blessings. It is to be brought into the circle of the eternal fellowship that has always existed between Father, Son, and Spirit. It is to be made partaker of the divine nature. It is to be beloved of the Father for the sake of His Son and is founded upon union with Christ."

The ideas put forth in this collection of essays have been taught in every age of the Church - from the early fathers to the Medievals, from the Reformers to the Westminster divines, and on up to the present day. Rather than presenting a new novelty of doctrine, these writers together share the desire to stand full in the stream of classical Reformed Christianity, entirely submitted to the Holy Scriptures with the hope of promoting the growth and maturity of the Church.
