The uncapitalized term, unitarianism , while denoting adherence to the teaching of the singularness of God, includes beliefs generally similar to those of mainstream Protestant Christians (apart from the Trinity). This form of unitarianism is more commonly called nontrinitarianism . There are also nontrinitarians who maintain that God is a single person, but also that Jesus is that God, and who therefore are distinct from unitarians, who reject the divinity of Jesus.

Skip to Navigation Christian Apologetics and Research Ministry What is Unitarianism? by Matt Slick Unitarianism is the belief that God exists in one person, not three. It is a denial of the doctrine of the Trinity as well as the full divinity of Jesus. Therefore, it is not Christian. There are several groups that fall under this umbrella: Jehovah's Witnesses, Christadelphianism, The Way International, etc. Another term for this type of belief is called monarchianism. In the context of universalism, the Unitarianism discussed here is that belief that denies the Trinity, the deity of Christ, the personhood of the Holy Spirit, eternal punishment, and the vicarious atonement of Jesus. Unitarian universalists use many biblical concepts and terms but with non-biblical meanings. Unitarianism is not Christian. There is a group known as the Unitarian Universalist Association. This denomination which was formed in 1961 in the United States when the American Unitarian Association and the Universalist Church of America merged. Its membership is around 175,000. The General Convention of the Unitarian Universalists formulated the five principles of the Universalist Faith in 1899.

We encourage each person to deepen their relationship with God, yet allow each person to understand God in their own unique way. We learn from the teachings of Jesus, yet also draw inspiration from all the world religions, as well as the arts, sciences, and psychology. Today Unitarianism is a very "broad church" and individual chapels vary greatly. In some the Bible is still read often, in others, like Rosslyn Hill, our Christian heritage now sits alongside other religions providing inspiration, but never dogma.

This statue of Channing (1780-1842), one of the founders of American Unitarianism, stands in Newport, Rhode Island. [Click on thumbnail for larger image.] Unitarianism is "the form of Christianity that denies the doctrine of the Trinity, believing that God exists only in one person. While there were previous antitrinitarian movements in the early Christian Church, like Arianism and Monarchianism, modern Unitarianism originated in the period of the Protestant Reformation" ( Columbia Encyclopedia ). And the Oxford English Dictionary defines a Unitarian as one "who affirms the unipersonality of the Godhead, especially as opposed to an orthodox Trinitarian; spec. a member or adherent of a Christian religious body or sect holding this doctrine." According to Britannica Online , English Unitarianism begins with John Biddle (1615-62), an English Socinian , whose knowledge of the Greek text of the New Testament convinced him that the doctrine of the Trinity was not of scriptural origin, published his Unitarian convictions in Twelve Arguments Drawn out of Scripture . . .

Unitarian Society Spartacus USA History British History Second World War ... Email The Unitarian Society was established in 1791. The term Unitarian began being used in Europe at the beginning of the 17th century. John Biddle (1615-62) is considered to be the first minister to establish a Unitarian congregation in Britain. Another early supporter was Theophilus Lindsey (1723-1808), who built the Essex Street Chapel in London in 1778. However, it was the Nonconformist minister and scientist, Joseph Priestley , who became the most important proponent of unitarianism in 18th century England. After his home was destroyed by a mob in 1791, Priestley emigrated to America. The Unitarians drew their membership to a large extent from the scientific professions and their outlook tended to be rational and individualistic. The original intentions of the movement was to unite all Non-conformist groups but this ended in failure. There is no set doctrinal beliefs that all Unitarians agree on. In fact, the most important aspect of Unitarianism is the right of individuals to develop their own religious opinions. Therefore the bond between them consists more in their anti-dogmatism than in any uniformity of belief. However, Unitarians tend to believe that Jesus Christ was a human religious leader to be followed but not worshipped. Unitarians argued that Jesus is the "great exemplar which we ought to copy in order to perfect our union with God".

15. Unitarianism, Unitarian Christianity Several articles on unitarianism and Unitarian Christianity. A source of information for deeper understanding of religious subjects. http://www.mb-soft.com/believe/txc/unitaria.htm

Unitarianism General Information Unitarianism is a form of Christianity that asserts that God is one person, the Father, rather than three persons in one, as the doctrine of the Trinity holds. A number of religious groups in Transylvania, Poland, Great Britain, and North America have been designated as unitarian because of this belief. It has not been their only distinguishing mark, however, and at times not even the most important one. As significant has been their confidence in the reasoning and moral abilities of people - in contrast to traditions that emphasize original sin and human depravity - as well as an avoidance of dogma. Modern Unitarianism dates to the period of the Protestant Reformation. A Unitarian movement has existed in Transylvania since the 1560s, when the leader was Francis David (1510 - 79). In Poland, Unitarianism flourished for a hundred years as the Minor Reformed Church until persecution forced (1660) its adherents into exile. The key figure in the Polish movement was Faustus Socinus (1539 - 1604). Isolated individual unitarians lived in England in the 1600s, most notably John Biddle, but Unitarianism developed as a formal movement in the 1700s, partly within the Church of England but mainly in dissenting circles.

16. Rise Of Transcendentalism Transcendentalism cannot be properly understood outside the context of unitarianism, the dominant religion in Boston during the early nineteenth century. http://xroads.virginia.edu/~ma95/finseth/trans.html

The Emergence of Transcendentalism The emergence of the Transcendentalists as an identifiable movement took place during the late 1820s and 1830s, but the roots of their religious philosophy extended much farther back into American religious history. Transcendentalism and evangelical Protestantism followed separate evolutionary branches from American Puritanism, taking as their common ancestor the Calvinism of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In exploring their respective departures from Calvinism we can begin to map out the common ground the two movements shared. Unitarians placed a premium on stability, harmony, rational thought, progressive morality, classical learning, and other hallmarks of Enlightenment Christianity. Instead of the dogma of Calvinism intended to compel obedience, the Unitarians offered a philosophy stressing the importance of voluntary ethical conduct and the ability of the intellect to discern what constituted ethical conduct. Theirs was a "natural theology" in which the individual could, through empirical investigation or the exercise of reason, discover the ordered and benevolent nature of the universe and of God's laws. Divine "revelation," which took its highest form in the Bible, was an external event or process that would confirm the findings of reason. William Ellery Channing, in his landmark sermon "Unitarian Christianity" (1819) sounded the characteristic theme of optimistic rationality: Our leading principle in interpreting Scripture is this, that the Bible is a book written for men, in the language of men, and that its meaning is to be sought in the same manner as that of other books.... With these views of the Bible, we feel it our bounden duty to exercise our reason upon it perpetually, to compare, to infer, to look beyond the letter to the spirit, to seek in the nature of the subject, and the aim of the writer, his true meaning; and, in general, to make use of what is known, for explaining what is difficult, and for discovering new truths.

History of Unitarianism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation search For Unitarian theology, see Unitarianism Unitarianism , both as a theology and as a denominational family of churches, was first defined and developed within the Protestant Reformation , although theological ancestors may be found back in the early days of Christianity. Later historical development has been diverse in different countries. The term Unitarian was first used by Polish and Dutch Socinians in Latin from the 1660s and introduced into English by Henry Hedworth in 1673. Contents Early origins The Protestant Reformation Italy Poland ... edit Early origins Unitarians trace their history back to the Apostolic Age and claim for their doctrine a prevalence during the ante- Nicene period. Many believe their Christology most closely reflects that of the "original Christians." (For a discussion of the New Testament evidence, see Nontrinitarianism While it is evident that higher Christologies existed in the late 1st and early 2nd centuries, Jewish-Christian congregations tended to hold the view that Jesus was a great man and prophet, even the Son of God, but not God himself. (See Ebionites One of the earliest controversies over the nature of Christ that involved the propagation of "unitarian" ideas broke out at Rome during the episcopate of Victor I (189–199). This was the so-called ‘Monarchian controversy,’ which originated in a revolt against the influential Logos theology of

We are most familiar with a kind of religion that begins with “I believe” and then everything else flows from that.  Unitarians are different.  We define our religion by the kind of people we want to be, by the work we do for others, and by the communities we create and sustain.  When people of open heart and open mind unite in community to share their stories, their beliefs, their joys and their sorrows, what emerges is a spirituality that comes from deep within - a spirituality that is more felt and immediate and personally relevant than anything that can be written or taught.  Unitarianism nurtures each one of us to grow toward wholeness and connection and unites us to do the hard and essential work of creating a better world.
