Five Views on Law and Gospel - review
Five Views on Law and Gospel edited by Stanley Gundry (series editor) places five different views of how the biblical Christian looks at the relationship between the Law and the Gospel. The authors in this volume are: Willem A VanGemeren (non-theonomic Reformed), Greg Bahnsen (theonomic Reformed), Walter Kaiser (called 'evangelical' because there isn't another good label to put on his view), Wayne Strickland (Dispensational), and Douglas Moo (a modified Lutheran position).
Well, it took me a while to get through this book. In fact, I wouldn't have done it except a friend of mine told me to just read the last argument (Moo) and I would be fine. So I finished it off.
This is thick reading at times. They really do go after some of the finer points of the OT Law and how it applies to the Christian. Each author formulates their argument differently. Sometimes the responses rabbit trail. But it was helpful, even if it was a bit of work for me to finish off.
