In a article on theonomy, John Frame mentions of Meredith Kline that he had a "view of the New Testament as the sole canon of the Christian church."
Can anyone speak more into this? Is this an accurate statement?
edit: Here is the whole paragraph. Could anyone speak to all three points (abc) that Frame makes? I am ignorant of these ideas.

http://frame-poythress.org/penultimate-thoughts-on-theonomy/Kline’s rejection of theonomy presupposes some ideas which are themselves controversial and in my opinion dubious: (a) the sharp distinction between life-norms and faith-norms, (b) the derivation from the Noachic Covenant of a religiously neutral state, (c) his view of the New Testament as the sole canon of the Christian church. We should not, therefore, assume that Kline any more than theonomy represents unambiguously the Reformed tradition.
