改革之後的蘇格蘭議會像英格蘭一樣,無條件支持教會統一法令。他們以蘇格蘭長老會為唯一的正統。從英格蘭宗教迫害中逃出的一些新教徒將愛德華六世的第二版公禱書(1552年)帶到蘇格蘭,諾克斯本來也支持此這個宗教憲法,然而後來因受加爾文的影響而自創了《蘇格蘭教會公共秩序書》(Book of Common Order),後者在1562年被蘇格蘭長老會批准成為正式的教會祈禱書,它到1643年才被《威斯敏斯特公共敬拜指南》(Westminster Directory)取代。[27]
蘇格蘭長老會在1560年通過《第一紀律書》(First Book of Discipline)來規定教會的運作方法,用來實施改革後教會的政策。教會打算將牧師派駐蘇格蘭各地來傳播新的教義,[28] 但當時人手缺乏,因此設有監督者和其他一些職位來統一管理一個教區的教育情況。[29] 不過實際上這些舉措因為教會收入過低都難以見效。[30] 原因是1562年的一項法令使得新教會無法繼承舊教會的大部分財產,改革後教會收入只有之前的六分之一,而大部分利益都被貴族納入囊中。[31] 1567年時整個蘇格蘭只有257名牧師,還不足當時全部1,067所教堂的數量。[32] 而1590年分為50個區會的蘇格蘭也只在每個區內有20名牧師。[26]
