An article in Christianity today had some interesting quotes about NPP/FV and the road to Roman Catholicism:
Not All Evangelicals and Catholics Together | Christianity Today | A Magazine of Evangelical Conviction
"I have no doubt that the New Perspective and Federal Vision have had an effect on the Protestant-Catholic debate," Beckwith told Christianity Today. "I have met several former evangelical Protestants who have told me that Wright's work in particular helped them to better appreciate the Catholic view of grace."
Referring to former-protestant and blogger Taylor Marshal:
"Marshall said he speaks with new Catholic converts every month, about half of whom have been "deeply influenced" by Wright.
'If you buy into Wright's approach to covenantal theology, then you've already taken three steps toward the Catholic Church. Keep following the trail and you'll be Catholic,' said Marshall".
What do you think of this? Granted that not everyone who subscribes to the FV will end up at Rome, is there really a credible connection here? If so, why?
