One of the best known is Robert Sungenis, who has written and edited two large volumes attacking the Biblical and Reformation doctrines of justification by faith alone (sola fide) and the Bible alone as the Word of God (sola scriptura).

Among his publications are Covenant Theology in Reformed Perspective and John Piper on the Christian Life. He is widely recognized for his work in the history and theology of the covenants. Karlberg holds three earned degrees from Westminster Seminary in Philadelphia: Master of Divinity, Master of Theology in New Testament Studies, and Doctor of Theology in Reformation and Post- Reformation Studies.
