Church of the Saviour (Birmingham) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Church of the Saviour, Birmingham The Church of the Saviour in Birmingham was a liberal Unitarian church founded for the liberal non conformist preacher, George Dawson and instrumental in launching Joseph Chamberlain's political career. ==Founding==
Dawson was originally a Baptist pastor in the rapidly expanding industrial town of Birmingham, which he moved to in 1844 to become minister of the Mount Zion Baptist Chapel where the eloquence and beliefs that the young man expressed soon attracted a large following. However, Dawson's views did not fit the orthodoxy of the Baptist church, so in 1845 he left, followed by much of his congregation, to become minister of the theologically liberal Church of the Saviour, a 'Free Christian' church erected for him by his supporters, where "no pledge was required, of minister or congregation; no form of belief was implied by membership; no difference in creed was allowed to bar union in practical Christian work'. The key doctrine preached there was inscribed on a marble tablet above the entrance - "There is but one law - thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and thy neighbour as thyself."
