David Scott was a Reformed Presbyterian minister who was ordained in America shortly after emigrating from Scotland. He authored a number of brief works, chiefly written in defense of the positions maintained by the Reformed Presbyterian Church. . . . The following consists of chapter 2 of ScottÕs work on the Distinctive Principles. It sets forth, in careful detail from Scripture, what it means to speak of Christ as King, focusing upon the nature, the extent, the purpose, and the duration of ChristÕs dominion, as He is Mediator; with particular attention given to His Kingship over nations and civil rulers.
