That is a lot to think about, and at the moment I don’t have the time to do so.

However, I want to state a few things about 2KT.

I am not a fan of some modern forms of 2KT. You might call that R2KT (Radical Two Kingdom Theology).
R2KT is partly responsible for how many Churches responded during Covid.

The government told the Church they must shut their doors, until further notice. Allowing video Church and small meetings, obeying government health rules.
In Canada, several pastors spent time in jail, for not complying with government orders. They were vindicated in court, when their cases were finally held.

Despite that, many prominent pastors and theologians condemned them, for not “loving their neighbours.”
In the USA, the government was not as bad. But, Grace Community Church (the Church John MacArthur pastored), was taken to court quite a few times by Governor Newsom. Grace Community Church won all their cases.
As a result those who held to RTKT such as ‘The Gospel (...)

Addendum: Heard back from my friend and had to laugh. He initially wrote this: "I try to avoid Kline. So I can’t be of much help to you on this." He added that like myself, he had read a bit of Kline's writings, some about 47 years ago and found him to be quite extreme in his views. And thus, he has basically no interest in him. Perhaps that tells you all that one needs to know? scratchchin

Nor is there "common grace" when defined as God's love for all mankind and to whom is given the ability to comprehend, accept, love and do the truth of God. Some on the panel iterated that "common grace" is actually and biblically defined as God's restraint of the depravity of fallen men. So, what is the answer to how should Christians approach this depravity of men? It is found in Romans 1:

Rom 7:14 – “For we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin.” I believe God allowed the sin nature, i.e. “old man” to indwell within the believer to continue to learn His holiness, and also continue to exercise faith in Christ’s expiation for our sin from its often guilt-accused approaches!

“Whereas, when Paul speaks of his unregenerate state, and how it was with him under the first convictions of sin, he speaks of them as things past, Romans 7:5; besides, several things which are said by the apostle can neither agree with him, nor any other, but as regenerate; such as to "hate evil," "delight in the law of God," (...)
