Danny - excellent article. Thanks for the link. I've been preaching all summer on justification by faith and this work has been welcome validation.

Hi Bill,
It really is amazing how concise it is (only 45 pages in his Works), yet how comprehensive.
It is also so clearly applicable to the current controversy with the Federal Vision, which in many ways is a modern version of the old error of Neonomianism.

Danny - slight deviation from your OP. Do you believe the FV is making inroads into Reformed Baptist circles? From what I understand of the FV it is has it's roots in the Presbyterianism. I'm wondering whether it has cross-over potential, in the short term, into the Baptist camp?

Interesting. I don't know much about Daniel Fuller. Can you tell me anything about him or cite some sources I can research. I certainly want to beware of FV making its way into Baptist circles, especially as my church becomes more Reformed.

For an example of Fuller's thinking see: http://www.andrewsandlin.net/?p=566 |

Any reformed baptists who are reading that are unlikely to be sucked in.

| | FV Controversy
I have read various opinions on all the FV issues but am looking for a spot that outlines their positions in a clear fashion. Is there anywhere that I can go that will give me pros/cons and summations on this whole controversy? I am not a theologian so please lead me to a more layman definitionor description of this controversy.
I have always enjoyed their history conferences. I feel confused as to this whole rigamaroll.
Thanks
Tom

FYI Andrew Webb reviewed Traill on Justification for the 2005 inaugural issue of The Confessional Presbyterian journal. It is online also at Banner of Truth.

Its advocates, when together, boast of great improvements, and congratulate one another on having gone greatly beyond the old dead orthodoxy, and on having left behind many of its antiquated errors: but when taxed with deviations from the received faith, they complain of the unreasonableness of their accusers, as they differ from it only in words. This has been the standing course of errorists ever since the apostolic age. Samuel Miller, Introductory essay, The Articles of the Synod of Dort (1841).

Tom | IMO you are best off purchasing The Auburn Avenue Theology, Pros & Cons: Debating the Federal Vision available here http://www.pointsouth.com/Merchant2/...ode=AUBURN-AVE and elsewhere.
