Jesus is not a second Moses:
“There prevails still a subtle form of legalism which would rob the Saviour of his crown of glory, earned by the cross, and would make of him a second Moses, offering us the stones of the law instead of the life-bread of the gospel.”
- Geerhardus Vos, Grace & Glory (Carlisle, Pa.: The Banner of Truth Trust, 1994), 102.
Our doctrine of resurrection depends on our doctrine of righteousness.
“The resurrection stands related to righteousness in the same way that death stands related to sin.”
- Geerhardus Vos, Grace & Glory (Carlisle, Pa.: The Banner of Truth Trust, 1994), 159.
Faith of Abraham
"When God promised that his prosperity should be numerous as the stars, he believed and it was reckoned to him for righteousness. But with reference to the promised inheritance of the land he doubted."
- Vos. Biblical Theology. pg 85.
