Alexander Campbell encouraged churches to call themselves (a.) Disciples of Christ.
Restoration was a means to an end (unity), which was a means to an end (world conversion), which was a means to an end (the millennium), which would finally lead to Jesus' return at its end (Campbell was post-millennial).
Campbell's religious debates were (b.) attended by thousands from all denominations.

 Restoration Quarterly (Alexander Campbell as a Publisher)
Campbell's last two public debates, with the Roman Catholic bishop John B. Purcell in 1837 and with the Presbyterian N.L. Rice in 1844, were not published by the Campbell Press but by various other publishers.
Campbell was also afraid that "Christian Baptist" was becoming the name of his followers, a non-scriptural name less appropriate than the biblical "Disciples" he preferred.
It is quite probable that the "Restoration Movement" spawned by Campbell and the three large Churches that came from the movement--the Disciples of Christ, the Christian Churches, and the Churches of Christ--would not exist if Campbell's works had gone unpublished.

 Religious Movements Homepage: Restoration Movement>
Christians of this movement believe that Jesus is both God and God's son.
The Restoration Movement began in the early 19th Century when a conglomeration of members from different Christian groups and denominations decided that they had gotten away from the basics of Christianity.
The followers of Campbell and Stone divided into two sects, called the Church of Christ (Non-Instrumental) and the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).

 Restoration Movement
A movement to restore primitive Christianity sprung up in America in the early 1800s out of the Presbyterian church.
Although written by historians belonging to the Restoration movement (Christian churches, Church of Christ), the book gives fair treatment to each of these four movements--without arguing that one was right and the others were wrong.
Although the movement now focused more on primitive doctrine and ordinances than on holy living and the inner life, it did bring spiritual renewal to thousands of people across the nation.

Alexander Campbell's function as an authority is frivolous to those whose religion is found exclusively in the New Testament.
Alexander Campbell might have taught all the truth, he might have strayed from the truth, or he might have failed to recognize the truth through ignorance of lack of diligence.
Even if Barton W. Stone and Alexander Campbell attained perfect agreement in their understanding of the Scriptures, the followers of the restoration movement quickly dissolved into factions promoting different doctrines, practices or roles for the church.

 John Mark Hicks Ministries
Campbell's Immersion Almost immediately after the beginning of the Brush Run church, two of the members refused to participate in the communion of the church[7] because they had not been immersed.
Alexander often recalled that he was not baptized in Regular Baptist fashion.[8] He had neither testified about some saving experience of the Holy Spirit nor had some Baptist church voted upon his immersion.
Campbell's concern was simply to obey the will of God.

 Church of Christ, Disciples of Christ, Christian Church, so-called
Modern segments of the Restoration Movement include the Noninstrumental Churches of Christ, the independent Christian Churches/Churches of Christ, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) and the International Church of Christ (Boston and London), an off-shoot of the Noninstrumental Churches of Christ.
In my opinion, your web page would be accurate up until about the 1950's or so with the Christian Church and Disciples of Christ and up until 1975 or so with the Churches of Christ.
I was reading your page on the Churches of Christ and wanted to let you know a few thoughts I had on the subject since my Christian heritage is from the Restoration Movement of Stone/Campbell.

 Classic Restoration Movement Texts: James Lowber's "Alexander Campbell and the Disciples"
Campbell had declared the manuscript must have contained from which Origen quoted.
For a short time Thomas Campbell was pastor of a Presbyterian Church; but the Presbyterians became dissatisfied with his position that the Bible is a sufficient guide to both faith and practice, so he ceased to be a minister among them.
Campbell stated that no translator had ever rendered bapto, or any of its family of words, to sprinkle.

 The REVEAL Library: From the CofC to the Boston Movement
Campbell's doctrine of baptism for the remission of sins became the cornerstone of his movement and later the cornerstone of the entire Restoration Movement, the Churches of Christ, and, eventually, the Boston Movement.
Since the Churches of Christ believe they have resurrected the New Testament church in all its doctrinal perfection, it is difficult for them to view Boston Movement doctrine as an outgrowth or permutation of their own doctrine; instead they see it as an entirely new and unrelated creation of the leaders of the Boston Movement.
A representative from each of the three main branches of the Restoration Movement (the Churches of Christ, the Disciples of Christ, and the Independent Christian Churches) was asked to come speak at the lecture on the contribution of each religious body to the church universal.

 Alexander Campbell And The Church Of Christ
Campbell eventu-ally became the preacher for this congregation.
Campbell would later adopt these same ideals, since they did not begin with the Haldanes, but with God.
Before being rescued, Alexander promised God that if he would be spared from the raging sea, he would devote his life to the preaching of the gospel.

 Restoration Quarterly (Isaac Errett: Unity and Expediency)
Errett stressed that the first leaders of the Restoration Movement had found only one article in the "creed" of the primitive Christians, i.e., faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God; and it was on that one article that they had proposed to unite all Christians.
First, in 1863 Errett published a little work entitled "A Synopsis of the Faith and Practice of the Church of Christ," which was designed to be a brief statement of the Restoration Movement's beliefs and directed toward interested outsiders.
Some in these movements adopted immersion, and Henry Errett was a leader in a New York congregation of these so-called "Scotch Baptists." He wrote several tracts on religious subjects, including church organization and baptism.

 Topical Index of Bible and History
The Grace-Centered movement gives permission as a Post-Modern, Post-Biblica movement to attack those who believe that "grace teaches" and grace or charisma is the power God gives to live according to His will.
Therefore, these files are the product of personal worship which is giving heed to Christ and His word, and "in the spirit" or mind.
The American Restoration Movement momentarily restored that to mean that church was "the school of Christ."

 The Restoration Movement
This website is dedicated to the many men and women who have struggled in the Restoration Of New Testament Christianity, to take us back to the Bible, and to let it be our only standard of faith and practice.
Not only are we to be thankful for the work of the apostles and early church workers in the 1st century A.D., but we should also remember the value of all those since who have directed others to give up the shackles of religious error, only to take on the truth revealed in God's Word.

Alexander Campbell: The Bath of Regeneration and the Holy Spirit
I will look to the God who made the hills." Restoration of the most ancient pagan belief about God.
However, Walter Scott defines the Holy Spirit as, 1) God Who is the Holy Spirit and 2) Our spirits made holy by faith and obedience.

 Restoration Movement - LEROY GARRETT - Origin at Cane Ridge?
If you discount Thomas Campbell's early association with "restorationists" and his attempt to unify the bodies of Presbyterians, and place his restoration at the time of his rejection of the Presbyterian church, then you can say that Stone had begun before Campbell.
It is important that before union with the Stone churches in 1832, Campbell had led the Restoration in Kentucky since about 1823 by preaching and writing which led the people back to the Bible and prepared them to merge with the Disciples.
If a movement was not founded on that birthday it cannot be a true church.

 Alexander Campbell, Barton W. Stone, Walter Scott - Trinity
It is unbiblical, unhistorical, not part of the Restoration Movement and not a view of churches of Christ which are not flirting with charismatic worship.
This was the common view until the liberal 19th century and the neo-pentecostal movement among churches of Christ.
However studied the theology, those who do not let this mind lead them into "empting themselves" do not, as Scott says, have a holy spirit in any form and need repentance and conversion.

 Campbellite and Restorationist Traditions in the South
Restorationists discarded denominational labels at first as signs of division within the one church, preferring to call themselves simply "Christians." In time, however, the followers of Alexander Campbell grew into one of the first indigenous denominations in the United States, the Disciples of Christ or the Christian Church.
As the movement grew, it enlarged its vision to include a conviction that American society itself could be transformed into a culture replicating the pure simplicity of New Testament Christian communities even as it extended its following into both the North and the South.
On this subject for the Churches of Christ, see Royce L. Money, "Church-State Relations in the Churches of Christ since 1945: A Study in Religion and Politics" (32), which emphasizes the role of anti-Catholicism and anti-Communism in determining this denomination's position on church-state issues.

 The Restoration Movement Fulfilled In Jesus Christ Online
Campbell was consumed with passion for what he imagined as the primitive purity of the church.
Most important of all, without a strong foundation stone of the Jesus-centered gospel of salvation by grace through faith, many people scattered throughout the movement came to view restoration itself as the means to salvation and the basis for fellowship with each other.

 Restoration History (page two)
Thomas Campbell, like the apostle, John, saw heaven opened and he saw a great multitude that no one could number, and it was made up of all nations, all peoples, all tribes.
We have already seen that we started out as a unity movement and we ourselves were united and we remained that way for upwards of a hundred years and then division started coming.
There is a historic marker out in front explaining that this is the Disciples of Christ Historical Society and it says things about Alexander Campbell and other pioneers.

Leonard Allen is author of influential books in the Restoration Movement and increasingly advocates rediscovering the path toward Trinitarian Theology and the Spiritual Life.
Tim Riter, author of 12 Lies You Hear in Church joins the discussion on discipleship with an article on a lie may be telling ourselves about sharing our faith in Jesus Christ.
In his new book, Waking the Dead, he issues a broader more radical challenge to Christians, men and women, to rethink what they’ve been taught about their faith, to embark on a journey to restore their embattled hearts.
