This is the standard work on the kingdom of God in English!
It covers the necessity, reality, & qualifications of Christ's dominion over not only the church, but all nations too. Anything less is to rob Christ of His magnificent, majestic, mediatorial glory, for He is the King of kings and Lord of lords.
'While books on the priestly work of the Redeemer, and especially on the Atonement, are numerous, no formal and exhaustive discussion of the kingly office of the Messiah... and its application to various classes of moral agents is elsewhere to be found... It is cause for satisfaction that the only treatise, as yet, upon this subject, is a work of signal ability, lucid in arrangement, reverent in spirit, and with hardly an exception, sound and judicious in its conclusion. Its very merits are probably, in part, the reason why no other work on the same subject has appeared, & until it is supplanted by a better work -- an event not likely soon to occur -- it will have a value peculiar to itself' (Intro.). This is a unique book devoted to the absolute Kingship and dominion of the Lord Jesus Christ - over all heaven and earth! And He will continue His present reign from heaven until every enemy of His is conquered, 'For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet' (1 Cor. 15:25).
