Adam:

Regarding the term theonomist:

All of us on the PB SHOULD be theonomic with the little "t" at least. We all agree that God's moral law is eternal. Of course there is "no other standard."

many folks, like me, see a whole lot more discontinuity between the OT and the NT even despite a general tenor of continuity. This means that when we see the term "general equity" this does NOT mean any desire to Christianize the civil state or to apply civil punishments to ecclesiastical offenses, but to apply the moral law drawn from the OT to the New (in the pattern that Paul does in I Cor 5)...
