Harrison Perkins With 7 Minutes And 12 Seconds On The Law In The Covenant Of Works

From the early 1650s Reformed theologians began to speak explicitly of the “covenant of works” to describe God’s relations to Adam (and us) in the garden and to explain the nature of the demands of the law upon God’s image bearers.
