The Ark of the Covenant Opened 7 of 30

John Owen, in his preface to this treatise writes, 'I do freely declare my judgement that for order, method, perspicuity in treating, and solidity of argument, the ensuing discourse exceedeth whatsoever single treatise I have seen written with the same design' (cited in Johnston, Treasury of the Scottish Covenant, p.337).

In this volume Gillespie proves:

1. That there is such a Covenant (of Redemption).

2 The necessity of it.

3. The nature, properties, and parties thereof.

4. The tenor, articles, subject matter of Redemption,

5. The commands, conditions, and promises annexed.

6. The harmony of the Covenant of suretiship made with Christ, and the Covenant of reconciliation made with sinners: wherein they agree, wherein they differ.

7. Grounds of comfort from the Covenant of suretiship; and, of course, much, much more!

Owen underscores the importance of this work when he writes, 'For the Doctrine hereof, or the truth herein, is the very Center wherein all the lines concerning the Grace of God and our own duty, do meet; wherein the whole of Religion doth consist.'
