The Key of Theology in Reformed Thought and Tradition
"The doctrine of the covenants is the key of theology." - C.H. Spurgeon.
The world has difficulty understanding where the church is coming from. There seems to be an inconsistency of message and a lack of confidence in the message she proclaims. So the Church is irrelevant to vast crowds of people - all of who need to hear its message.
How do we give out that message? God has given us his word, the Bible, as guidance and we can unlock it for our generation with the help of this book.
The lack of a consistent approach to the study of the Bible has reduced the level of understanding of God's revelation as a whole. The 'lazyology' that has resulted is a key ingredient in the development of disunity in the church. This lack of clarity has made the church 'off-message' to our society.
'But Covenant Theology sounds so difficult' you say!Fortunately help is at hand (literally if you are reading this in a bookshop). Peter Golding gently takes us on a trip through time and unfolds the Big Picture that is Covenantal Theology.
The Big Picture that gives you a vision of a Bigger God.
If your God is too small, or if your grasp of theology is shaky, then an understanding of Covenantal Theology will make your understanding clearer, your message deeper and the impact of the church's mission greater.
The Bible will come together as a cohesive 'whole'. ***- Publisher.***
For those who have little or no knowledge of what Covenant Theololgy is, Peter Golding takes a trip through time to show its importance and impact on us personally and the world as a whole.

This is a great work on Covenant Theology. I am still reading it but had to get this review out there because I love it already. The work as the contents page indicates is a work of Historical Theology not biblical theology of the covenants in the bible. Many works on the later have been written in recent times. That is tracing the biblical covenants of the Bible, in the garden, under Noah, Abraham, Moses, David to the New Covenant sealed by the blood of Christ. This work instead looks to the development of Federal Theology (another name for Covenant Theology) in the reformed tradition and thought - that is the superstructure and backbone of the Reformed faith that ties OT NT together in a seemless whole. How it developed from the time of the Reformation onwards not only in one country like England, but also on the Continent in places like Germany. Switzerland, America. I value the work because it gives me much to think about and also provides me with references to all the primary literature on the topic as well as all the big names who contributed. I dont think I have enough time or mental stamina to explore it in much depth with what time the Lord will bless me but it is here for all future interested young theologians. Pick it up and ground yourself in the sources of this marvelous heritage and biblical tradition that is called the Reformed and Presbyterian faith.
