What FV is really saying is that yes, you’ve got all that, but it’s all in God’s decree. Since we cannot know God’s decree, it is not our concern. Our concern is with the here and now, with the external covenant (cf., like the Israelites). Thus, FV covenantal externalism is based on the implications resulting from an epistemological limitation.
I can't believe some FV proponent said that on Lane's blog! Like that makes it any better? We can't know God's decree so we'll just skip the Gospel. The Gospel is too hard, we will try keeping the Law? Whoooeee!
If all he's saying that they are saying is; we can't know who's elect so we'll baptize all children of members in good standing and said members can come to the Table, then what's the fuss about?
I think they are saying more than that. They tend to shift the meaning of words.
I see what you mean and take back calling this guy an FV advocate.
