Puritan Board Professor
Context: Studying Kline (&Followers) and Republication.
Kline et al:
1) Cov. of Works (CoW) conflated into God's work of Creation
2) There's no voluntary condescension on the part of God (WCF 7.1)
3) The Moral Law and Covenant of Works are equivalent
4) So the works principle is not a covenant imposed but a necessary covenant wired into man simply by creating him.
5) At Sinai, the CoW and moral law have to stay together as it was imposed at creation.
5) So in the end, obedience to the moral law requires eternal life. Eternal life being simple justice.
Correct?
