Books on Federal Vision
Pro:
> The Federal Vision
Neutral:
> The Auburn Avenue Theology
Against:
> The Federal Vision and Covenant Theology
> Federal Vision
> Calvin and the Federal Vision
At the core of the whole controversy is a man named Norman Shepherd. He is not typically thrown in with the Federal Vision proper, but they all use his insights. Here are his two books:
> The Call of Grace
> The Way of Righteousness
Norman Shepherd was a tenured professor at Westminster Theological Seminary (in Philadelphia) and they fired him for "doctrinal reasons." Or at least, that's what those who slander him would like to believe. The Justification controversy has been awash in haziness and misinformation. There are two main accounts, taking opposite perspectives.
> The Current Justification Controversy
> Trust and Obey
I would also suggest the Festschrift for Norman Shepherd.
> Obedient Faith (Difficult to find)
The basic gist is this:
John Murray, Norman Shepherd, and Meredith Kline are on a continuum.
Meredith Kline----------John Murray-----------Norman Shepherd.
Most people tend to side with Kline, but they insist on calling Shepherd a heretic.
