Summary, Etc. If you thought that these writers simply taught good old Reformed theology, you might be very surprised to learn how unusual and controversial their teaching is. In my view their positions are not standard Reformed theology. Ironically, given that the Escondido school of thought holds that we should not agree to discuss any theological topics except the ones discussed by Reformed thinkers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, none of their distinctive positions is taught in any of the Reformed confessions. These positions are an idiosyncratic kind of teaching peculiar to the Escondido school. Those who teach them are a faction, even a "sect." And I believe that, taken in the plain sense of the terms, these positions are all unbiblical. - Dr. John Frame.
