Unity and Continuity in Covenantal Thought

the long version

Over the years, some scholars have argued for competing streams of covenantal throught within the Reformed tradition. For instance, some have pitted Calvin against the Calvinists, some have tried to detect unilateral and bilateral approaches to the covenant, and still others have set federalism against predestinarianism.

Woolsey assesses the Reformed tradition and finds that the development of diverse formulas actually maintained substantial agreement on the basic contours of covenantal thought. - Back cover.
