Puritan Board Freshman
Hi! Which puritan would you most recommend on the topic of law & grace?
Would like to read on their view of John 1:17 when it says law was brought by Moses but Jesus brought grace. It is my understand that law and grace are not opposed to each other (was this Luther's view?) because they come from same source GOD but that grace and law serve two different intended purposes. Would this be correct?
Also especially interested in how the purtians or general reformed writers view the meaning of Romans 6:14 when it states that Christians are no longer under law but grace. Many today use this as a proof text to say that the moral law (10 commandments) has been put away and was negative.
Thanks!
For His Glory-
