I have already ordered mine.Here's the word I got from Ken Puls, who runs Founders Press:
> Fred Malone has made several edits throughout the book, providing
> additional quotes and clarifications. The book has been reformatted,
> repaginated and re-indexed. Fred has also added two appendices to the book:
> Appendix E is a book review on The Case for Covenantal Infant Baptism by
> Gregg Strawbridge that came out in 2003 (same year as first edition of
> Fred's book). Appendix F is a critique and rejection of Extreme
> Covenantalism, exposing the errors of the New Perspective on Paul and
> hypercovenantalism (Federal Vision theology). This is a more definitive
> edition of Fred's work and, in my opinion, a "must-have".

Thanks! I ordered it.
Someone asked if there were any significant revisions in the book. Here is what Stan Reeves found out.
He:
Do you guys believe that this is the definitive exposition of the CB position?
Curious,

It is an exposition. If someone wanted to know a stronger definitive CB expostion I would refer them to Nehemiah Coxe's Covenant Theology From Adam to Christ. He is one of the Particular Baptists from the 1600's and probably had his hands deep in the 1677 (1689) LBCF.
I think the strength of Malone's book is that he does hold to a Covenant Theology and has had to deal honestly with a lot of the theology of His past.
But I would recommend the Coxe book first.
Thanks:
I appreciate Dr. Malone's (and RB's in general) commitment to Covenant Theology. I read Dr. Malone's essay, "A String of Pearls Unstrung" as an RB, and it was the misuse of Covenant Theology - especially in the realm of Jeremiah 31 - that caused me to question the RB theology in general. A misuse that many RB's here have echoed, and I have pointed out in previous posts.
If Dr. Malone has improved his covenantal argument, then I would be most interested in reading it.
