Kingdom through Covenant
Book Review
In a massive volume, Peter Gentry and Stephen Wellum unfold a fascinating Biblical Theology. I was trained theologically within a dispensational approach; however, this book may have officially helped me to drop the dispensational label. Not because I'm adopting the views of this book, but that it caused me to realize that I needed to be formally let go of some of the key tenants of of dispensationalism that I was still holding onto.
My negative to this book is that it is so detailed to the point that it becomes unhelpful sometimes. It feels like an odd mixture of repetition and superfluous details while still yet unfolding a fascinating premise that sometimes I feel like leaves some major gaps in the midst of great verbosity.
I do plan to use this book as a reference work for many years to come.
I am nuts about books. I read on all kinds of topics. I attempt to review each book I read for the sake of my own enrichment as well as conversation starters with others.
You never know what you will find in an attic! Usually there is a hodgepodge of things buried under dust.
Most of what is included here are notes to myself. The majority of folks will not find interest in these posts.
