Could someone help me sort out what's involved here:
Covenant and Justification: Horton vs. Piper and Wright
A reading of Biblical Theology doesn't give me any sense of a need to categorize the covenants. God revealed Himself over time in a unilateral, covenant relationship with man that came to full bloom in Christ and will be fulfilled in the last day.
And it seems absolutely orthodox that God pays the penalty for our sin and imputes His righteousness to us.
So what's up with these guys? I know Mr. Piper mostly from some very thoughtful biographies he's written and a few sermons, not many.
