Universalist Church : ウィキペディア英語版 | Universalist Church of America
The Universalist Church of America was a Christian Universalist religious denomination in the United States (plus affiliated churches in other parts of the world). Known from 1866 as the Universalist General Convention, the name was changed to the Universalist Church of America in 1942. In 1961, it consolidated with the American Unitarian Association to form the Unitarian Universalist Association.〔Harvard Divinity School: (Timeline of Significant Events in the Merger of the Unitarian and Universalist Churches During the 1900s )〕 The defining theology of Universalism is ''universal salvation''; Universalists believe that the God of love would not create a person knowing that that person would be destined for eternal damnation. They concluded that all people must be destined for salvation. Some early Universalists, known as Restorationists and led by Paul Dean, believed that after death there is a period of reprobation in Hell preceding salvation.〔The A to Z of Unitarian Universalism, p. 397, Mark W. Harris, 2009: "RESTORATIONIST CONTROVERSY. An important confrontation within the Universalist ranks in the 1820s. During the early decades of the Universalist movement theological differences were largely ignored so that the movement could gain."〕 Other Universalists, notably Hosea Ballou, denied the existence of Hell entirely. ==History==
