A Reformed Baptist Manifesto: The New Covenant Constitution of the Church

A Reformed Baptist Manifesto: The New Covenant Constitution of the ChurchIt is the conviction of this author that confessional Reformed Baptist churches reflect the major distinctives of the New Covenant. In other words, what confessional Reformed Baptists endeavor to be is stated clearly in the terms of the New Covenant. The purpose of this study, therefore, is to set before you a Reformed Baptist Manifesto by means of an examination of the New Covenant as the Constitution of the Church. This assertion may seem arrogant.

It is hoped, however, that the reader will simply permit the New Covenant to speak for itself and see the relevance and appropriateness of such a claim.” – from the Introduction

“The centuries old dispute concerning the nature of the church and all the important related issues may seem so complex as to defy clarification. Waldron’s insightful discussion cuts through so much of the confusing rhetoric and allows the reader to see clearly the key elements of the differing positions in light of the teaching of God’s Word regarding the New Covenant. Many will be blessed by this fresh approach.” James R. White
