The Covenant of Life Opened
A comprehensive Reformed treatise exploring the architecture of God's dealings with humanity through three covenants: the Covenant of Works with Adam, the Covenant of Grace with believers, and the eternal Covenant of Redemption between the Father and Christ the Mediator. Rutherford examines how the law, faith, and gospel promises relate to each covenant, exposes the dangers of formalism and hypocrisy in professing the covenant, and demonstrates how Christ's substitutionary work secures the salvation of the elect.
