Eutychus joins the New Covenant Theology website team

Posted by: eutychus in Biblical Theology, Theology

Shane Becker of Lifted Veil has kindly asked me to join the team at New Covenant Theology.  The purpose of the site is not to produce new content, but to be a reference where people can find out what’s on other sites dealing with new covenant theology.  Shane explains:

What this site is not:  The aim of this site isn’t to be a repository of NCT material.  It is to contain no articles, blog postings, audio, video, contact lists, etc.  It is to be substanceless.   
 
What this site is:   My aim is to create a portal to point people to NCT articles, blogs, audio, video, contact lists, etc.  I’d like people to know that if they are looking for a particular NCT site or materials they will be able to find it at NewCovenantTheology.org. 

Although NCT has been a topic of discussion and debate since the 1970s, it is still a relatively little-known approach to biblical theology.  Although NCT is a work in progress, I believe it is essentially correct in its understanding that the New Covenant fulfills and supercedes the Old Covenant.  As a result, the Mosaic Law only applies to the Christian only insofar as it is fulfilled and taken up in the law of Christ.

Keeping up with the discussion and developments in NCT is no easy task, so I am glad Shane has taken on this project, and I hope to play a small part in its success.

    And a welcome member you are at that!

    I’m just catching up on my blog reading after a busy spell!

    I see you’re also interested in GTD. This may be of interest: http://inthepipeline.org/ (see handout 2).

    And a link to SoloChrist.com I also see (bless you brother - I run that site also).

    I’m currently a bit behind on my projects.

    And you’re a fan of Piper, Storms, Poythress, Frame and many others I admire also.

    This is scary.

    Blessings friend,

    Shane.

    Hi Shane,

    So you’re the fellow that saved solochristo.com! What a resource that was when I was first learning about NCT! Thanks for taking that on.

    I’m not at all surprised about the common theological interests–our common interest in NCT would be a good predictor of such things.

    Blessings to you,
    Les
