If by that question, am I a Calvinist? No. However, I do recognize the successive covenants between God and man, according to the failure of each. As each covenant was broken by man, God offered a ‘new’ covenant based on new and expanded requirements.
With the advent of the current covenant (the seventh), we are essentially back to the first covenant (
Mark 12:30-32). One might also include
Ephesians 5:25-30, the instructions in righteous living (Torah, Commandments, Law) being understood as explained by Jesus in Matthew chapters 5-7.
