From Ritchie's blog, "Reformed Covenanter":
"It is another response to criticism of Theonomy, similar in style (though different in content) to my reply to Revd Maurice Roberts. Being only 266 pages long, it should be ideal for those wanting a brief, accurate defence of the position. ..."
"The Revd John Otis had this to say in the foreword:
"'Daniel Ritchie continues to be one of the Reformed Faith’s best advocates for an accurate and biblical understanding of theonomy…The Law is Good, is a very good, cogent, and well-documented work.'
"This work contains numerous quotes from the Calvinistic Reformers, the Puritans of England and New England, and the Scottish Covenanters. Particular attention should be paid to the views of the Cameronians, especially Donald Cargill and Alexander Shields, and even to American RP ministers as late as the 19th century, such as Alexander McLeod and James Renwick Willson. Modern Covenanters should find this most enlightening."
