General Equity Theonomy is a theonomic theological position in Christian ethics that argues the civil laws given to Old Testament Israel (the Mosaic civil laws) are still morally binding today in their "general equity," meaning their underlying principles of justice, but not necessarily in their exact letter or cultural form. The Reformed Confessions generally point to the general equity of such laws only being of modern use (rather than binding).
