Justification and Covenant: Engaging the Piper-Wright Debate

Dr. Horton addresses the covenant themes behind the discussion of justification, referring to Moshe Weinfeld's categories of Vassal vs Royal Grant covenants. This talk is from the ETS 2010 National Conference on Justification . . . The theme was Justification and the discussion of the plenary sessions addressed the New Perspective on Paul and specifically some of NT Wright's views. NT Wright does a masterful job of interacting with Evangelical critiques of his view. Other plenary speakers included Frank Thielman, Presbyterian Professor of Divinity at Beeson Divinity School, Samford University, originally John Piper was also to speak, but was unable to attend and Tom Schreiner spoke in his place.
