The Highway Forums General Discussion Theology Discussion Forum Jeremiah 31.......KNOWING

Ddaann,

My making Keil's comments available does not necessarily equate to my endorsing everything he wrote. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> But I do agree with much that he said in regard to the meaning of "new covenant", which I believe linguistically cannot or at least should not be disputed.

FYI, I side with Owen in his more "Christological" approach . . . and if I could be put in a specific group, I would be more than comfortable in the old Congregational camp. Call me a "Presbygationalist" if you like. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/giggle.gif" alt="" /> To be perfectly honest, I haven't heard one salient argument from the Baptist camp which I found persuasive enough to make me renounce my paedobaptist position. For me, there is simply far too much unwarranted discontinuity forced upon one's Biblical Theology. And, of course, I reject the hermeneutic used to do so. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

However, be that as it may.... I am far more amiable toward Baptists than the vast majority of them have extended to me. Most of the members here, albeit holding divergent views on a variety of subjects, are more than hospitable and hold fast to that immutable bond which is found in being one in Christ. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/BigThumbUp.gif" alt="" />

In His Grace,
