Lots of Calvinist theory, long and dry, not at all convincing and containing no references to Scripture germane to the issue of covenantal succession.

I looked hard, but found no reference in the text to our Lord, Jesus, either.

Examples:

1st cited Scripture: Psalm 68:6 "God sets the solitary in families; He brings out those who are bound into prosperity; But the rebellious dwell in a dry land."

1st NT cited Scripture: Acts 2:38,39 "Then Peter said unto them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call."

Last cited Scripture: Hebrews 13:17 "Obey those who rule over you, and be submissive, for they watch out for your souls, as those who must give account. Let them do so with joy and not with grief, for that would be unprofitable for you." NKJV

Doesn't Acts 2:38,39 disprove this concept of covenantal succession when it says, "For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call." Further, please notice Peter says the promise is to as many as the Lord our God "will call" and he doesn't say the promise is to as many as the Lord our God "has elected."
