• By Oath Consigned: A Reinterpretation of the Covenant Signs of Circumcision and Baptism Grand Rapids: Eerdmans, (1968)

Disclaimer:  Dr. Kline has changed or clarified his views on details of covenant theology found in By Oath Consigned (specifically on the questions of grace before the fall and whether there are curses associated with the new    covenant), but he still endorses the main contours of argument re. circumcision and baptism. He would rather people read Kingdom Prologue and God, Heaven, and Har Magedon to understand his mature views.  See esp. p. 312 of KP where Kline writes, “On this subject see further my By Oath Consigned (1968), of which the present discussion is a resume involving some revision.”  The summary of By Oath Consigned is found on pp. 312-318 of KP.
