A rumination on the New Perspective

I may be wrong here, but it seems like the New Perspective suffers very badly from focussing not even on the work of Christ, but on the benefits of Christ (and the pretty specific ones of covenant membership at that) to the exclusion of correct Christian devotion to the all-surpassing glory of the person of Christ.
