Covenantal Theonomy: A Response to T. David Gordon and Klinean Covenantalism

by Kenneth L. Gentry Jr.

This work defends the continuation of God's Law in the new covenant economy. It defends Theonomic ("God's Law") ethics over against Intrusion Ethics (associated with Meredith Kline). It particularly responds to Dr. T. David Goron's philosophical, exegetical, and theological objections to theonomy. It shows not only that Theonomic Ethics is within the mainstream of Reformed, confessional theology, but is also firmly rooted in the covenantal Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments.

And excellent refutation of a sloppy attack on Bahnsen's Theonomy in Christian Ethics. One need not be a theonomist (I'm not) to appreciate Gentry's work.
