“in the general distinction between #Israel and the #Church, it should be
observed that, in their systematic theologies, #Covenant theologians, amongst
many neglected truths, make no reference to the #resurrection of #Christ though
that event is central in Pauline doctrine. There is a reason for this neglect. The
doctrinal meaning of Christ’s resurrection is that He as the Last Adam became
by His resurrection Head over all things to the Church, which is His body, the
Head over the new creation of #God; but a one-covenant theory precludes any
distinctly new undertaking upon the part of God and hence the omission of that
which the #Apostle elevates the place of highest doctrinal import. This new creation isn’t a second chapter of #Judaism.” less
