David Rathel
I received the Master of Divinity and Master of Theology degrees from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. After completing some doctoral work at Southeastern Seminary, I transitioned to St. Mary's Divinity School in the University of St Andrews in order to complete a PhD under the supervision of Dr. Steve Holmes. I presently live in St Andrews with my wife, and I am currently writing my PhD thesis there.
I served as a Baptist minister in the United States for a total of nine years before moving to Scotland. Since arriving in Scotland, I have served various churches by providing pulpit supply and short-term pastoral care.
Supervisors: Dr. Steve R. Holmes, St Mary's Divinity School, University of St Andrews and Dr. John S. Hammett, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary
Address: St Andrews, Fife

of the covenant of redemption. Current surveys of his theology have unfortunately not adequately explored this innovation. The primary cause of this failure is a lack of
attention to Gill’s historical context, a context shaped by doctrinal antinomianism and no-offer Calvinism. This article will contextualize Gill’s thought and provide a more accurate reading of his covenant theology by arguing that he offered a unique construction of the covenant of redemption that radically minimized human agency in the reception of salvation.
