This is Scott's account of how he became persuaded that the Calvinistic view of the Bible is true.
Thomas Scott (1747-1821), “a pious Calvinistic Divine.” – Darling.
Scott began his ministry in the Anglican church as an Unitarian and a Pelagian, but through circumstances that he deemed to be the leading of God, he adopted Calvinistic views. This is the same Scott who went on to write the multi-volume commentary on the Bible.
