Federal Vision

“Four specific issues directly related to justification occur within their teaching: the imputation of Christ’s righteousness, the role of works, final justification, and apostasy. This post will examine the first two of these four issues.” - DBTS Blog

“FV is not primarily concerned with soteriology, much less justification. However, some of their teaching in other areas helps to shape their understanding of justification. Three areas that indirectly relate to their teaching of justification will be considered here” - DBTS Blog

“Critics of Federal Vision…. claim that FV teachers, in arguing for a return to the Reformed tradition, have actually offered a return to Rome…. FV proponents have countered that they have simply been misunderstood and misinterpreted.” - DBTS Blog

“It seems that, even though the movement has been condemned by the NAPACC denominations over a decade ago, Federal Vision is still alive and well in Reformed circles. Some observers believe the “sympathizer’s club” may be growing!” - Ref21
