It has been said that the Reformed Baptists disagree with Covenant theology in how it views the covenants under the Covenant of Grace. That is the covenants of Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, and the New Covenant. Instead of viewing these covenants as administrations of the Covenant of Grace, they see them as witnesses of grace.

The best way I can understand the difference between administration and witnesses is using the Lord's Supper. Witnesses is akin to memorial, whereas administration is akin to the spiritual presence. Administration actually does something; witnesses does not.

Is that a fair assessment?
