Description
In Covenantal Apologetics, Scott Oliphint contends that defending and proclaiming divine truth is most effective when grounded in a covenantal framework. God, who remains sovereign, engages authentically with His creation, meaning every person exists in a relationship with Him—either in submission or defiance. The foundational truth of this covenantal dynamic is unmistakable: God is sovereign, Christianity is true, and all opposing claims are false.
Oliphint, a professor of apologetics and systematic theology at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, not only articulates this stance but also illustrates it throughout the book’s seven chapters. He begins by establishing and defending his principles before applying them through practical, dialogue-based examples. This approach is just one of the strengths of his insightful and accessible work.
