Excursions in Covenant Eschatology

The disappointing partiality of anti-preterist theologians ensures their arguments against Covenant Eschatology are based on little more than logical fallacies, exegetical acrobatics, or emotional appeals to their favoured traditions.

For Paul, the Lord’s Supper tradition was not an anticipatory ordinance of God, like the Passover meal, but rather a voluntary act of meal fellowship, of faithful communal thanksgiving to God for the Salvation wrought by his Son.

Jesus’ question about the Son of Man finding faith comes at the end of the parable of the widow and the unrighteous judge, reinforcing the idea that Jesus is asking about the Last Judgement of the Land of Israel.

Entering into Canaan behind Joshua was the final act in the physical enactment of the Salvation Pattern . From this moment on, this pattern is operating spiritually, on the minds of God’s people. The Law of Moses is the “letter” of God’s commandments regarding how he wants people in his Kingdom to behave. It was given for them to discover and adopt the guiding “spirit” within it.
