Description

Antinomianism has a long and complicated history, but help is here! This book is the first to examine antinomian theology from a historical, exegetical, and systematic perspectivewith a key emphasis on Christology.

an·ti·no·mi·an noun [an-ti-ˈnō-mē-ən]
One who holds that under the gospel dispensation of grace the moral law is of no use or obligation because faith alone is necessary to salvation. —Merriam-Webster’s dictionary

Hotly debated since the sixteenth century in the Reformed theological tradition, and still a burning issue today, antinomianism has a long and complicated story.

This book is the first to examine antinomianism from a historical, exegetical, and systematic perspective. More than that, in it Mark Jones offers a key—a robust Reformed Christology with a strong emphasis on the Holy Spirit—and chapter by chapter uses it to unlock nine questions raised by the debates.

“The problem of antinomianism is a hardy perennial for the church. A mischievous movement is afoot at the moment—its soaring rhetoric about grace is matched by an equally casual presumption on grace. Mark Jones’s book is thus to be welcomed: it is biblically grounded, historically sensitive, and above all timely.” —Carl R. Trueman, Paul Woolley Professor of Church History, Westminster Theological Seminary
“We are living in a deeply encouraging day when the sovereignty of God’s grace is being rediscovered far and wide. But as has happened in the past, the error of antinomianism has made its appearance. This new work by Mark Jones is rich in scriptural argument, illustrations from church history, and vigorous application.” —Michael A. G. Haykin, Professor of Church History and Biblical Spirituality, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary
Mark Jones (Ph.D., Leiden University) is Minister at Faith Vancouver (PCA) in Vancouver, British Columbia; Research Associate, Faculty of Theology at the University of the Free State in Bloemfontein, South Africa; and Lecturer in Systematic Theology at John Wycliffe Theological College in cooperation with North-West University in Potchefstroom, South Africa.
