I suspect it was published in the 1940s or 1950s, perhaps by the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland. It is hard to find on the used book market. I've had my copy since the early 1990s.<br /><br />The only place I know where you can find a copy is Still Water Revival Books.<br /><br />BROWN, C.J.<br /><br />Christ's Kingship Over the Nations Maintained and Defended in the Establishment Principle, or, The Principle of the National Recognition of Religion<br /><br />Maintains the universal supremacy of Christ as King of the nations, as well as King of the saints, with the consequent duty of nations as such, and civil rulers in their official capacity, to honor and serve Him by recognizing His truth and promoting His cause. Demonstrates that this position was "the unanimous testimony of the Reformers" and proves this truth from both the OT and the NT. Answers common objections, which are often arguments from abuse, while refuting the opposing error of Voluntaryism showing its sectarian nature. A marvelous little book that is much needed in our day! As the author notes, "Let us keep to the King's highway trod by the martyrs and Reformers, and in the name of our God display our banners that Christ is the Prince of the kings of the earth, and that the nation and the kingdom that will not serve Him and His Cause shall perish, yea, those nations shall be utterly wasted."<br />(Rare bound photocopy) $9.95-70%=2.99<br />(Hardcover photocopy) $15.00 (US funds)<br /><br />This book is also available on Reformation Bookshelf CD volume 25 (CD SUPER SALE) at: http://www.swrb.com/Puritan/reformation-bookshelf-CDs.htmVirginiaHuguenothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05766861124235982651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3438385047568042340.post-65812849768876694582009-08-27T14:40:35.555-04:002009-08-27T14:40:35.555-04:00Many thanks for this information.

John Macleod quoted Kennedy thus in a paper delivered in 2000 and published in the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland's magazine in April 2001:<br /><br />At the outset, we may well ask: What is this principle and what is it that makes the upholding of it so vitally important a matter that the eminent Dr Kennedy of Dingwall, a man who measured his words before giving utterance to them, was moved to declare that it was not only a principle “worth living for, but a principle worth dying for”? In plain terms, “the Establishment Principle, or the Principle of the National Recognition of Religion, maintains the scriptural view of the universal supremacy of Christ as King of Nations as well as King of saints, with the consequent duty of nations as such, and civil rulers in their official capacity, to honour and serve Him by recognising His truth and promoting His cause.” (2)<br /><br />(2) 2. Quoted in Christ’s Kingship over the Nations.<br /><br />Source: http://puritanismtoday.wordpress.com/2006/08/01/the-establishment-principle-1-its-foundations-by-rev-john-macleod/<br /><br />My copy of C.J. Brown, Christ's Kingship Over the Nations Maintained and Defended in the Establishment Principle, says, p. 28:<br /><br />"The Establishment Principle," said the eminent Dr. Kennedy of Dingwall, "is not only worth living for, but a Principle worth dying for."<br /><br />Beyond that, I have not sourced the quote directly to Dr. Kennedy.
