Two Helpful Essays at Green Bagginses

David Gadbois and Bob Mattes, filling in for Lane, at Green Bagginses, are doing an excellent job critiquing various aspects of the FV. Bob asks what it means to speak of “covenantal” salvation (from what?) and David asks what it means to speak of “covenantal” justification? In both cases the FV has it that one can be “justified” and lost it and one can be “saved” and lose it. Really? The FV is equivocating on two words essential to biblical and Reformed theology. They use them in a sense which is utterly foreign to Scriptures as we understand them.
