 Barth saw the covenant of works as disconnected from Christ and the gospel, and rejected the idea that God works with people in this way.Instead, Barth argued that God always interacts with people under the covenant of grace, and that the covenant of grace is free of all conditions whatsoever.Barth's theology and that which follows him has been called "monocovenantal" as opposed to the "bi-covenantal" scheme of classical federal theology.
