Essays present a fascinating prose communication; well presented, each works out a consistent theme. The essays in this collection, created over a fifteen-year span, stand on their own, although several themes carry through–Jesus's lordship, the kingdom, the church, the faith; these constitute constants framed by the three Forms of Unity, that is, the original stuff of the Reformation.

The Church remains the community that Christ faithful to the covenant promises gathers; she existed from the beginning of the first dispensation, will exist at the conclusion of the second dispensation, to be taken, raptured into heaven at the conclusion of the Tribulation, which ends Christ’s one thousand-year reign.
