1689 CONFESSION, ch. 19, "THE LAW OF GOD": PARAGRAPH 4: THE JUDICIAL LAW
SUMMARY: "The Confession makes two balancing points regarding the judicial law speaking of its ancient expiration and its modern application. This paragraph (which is substantially the same in the Westminster) is clearly based on Calvin's treatment of the judicial law in the 'Institutes.' This treatment is very relevant in light of the idea of the abiding validity of the judicial law being espoused in our day."

II. ANOTHER LAW WHICH EXPIRED. Waldron calls this its "ancient expiration." A. The Old Covenant Law Expired. B. The Old Covenant People Expired.
C. None Now Obliged by Virtue of the Institution. 1. None Obliged. 2. By virtue of the Institution.
III. THERE IS A GENERAL EQUITY FOR MORAL USE. A. Obligated by the Law's Moral Virtue.
