 | | Although not accepting Allen's Deism, Ballou was pleased by his belief in universal salvation, and was persuaded by his argument that the Scriptures must be read in the light of reason. | | | Ballou’s Notes on the Parables of the New Testament (1804, revised 1812) and An Examination of the Doctrine of Future Retribution (1834) were also influential in their time. | | | Ballou, however, moved on to the Universalist church in Salem in 1815. |

| | Hosea Ballou 2d |
| | According to Ballou 2d, church and civil politics—not the divine ordinance or early Christian teaching—established the heresy of belief in universal salvation. | | | According to Ballou's narration, during the first century little was said about the afterlife and for centuries after that time diverse opinions were openly held. | | | In the earliest days of the Christian Church, Ballou 2d argued, there was little that could be described as a system of doctrine. |

| | Hosea was greatly influenced by the Deist's use of reason and wrote that one should read the Bible with the use of reason to deduce truth from it. | | | But despite the fact that Hosea Ballou was now settled in a major Boston church with similar liberal Christian teachings to Unitarianism, he had no contact with William Ellery Channing, the well known Unitarian minister in Boston at this time. | | | He also asserted that it is clear in scripture that Jesus is subordinate to God and not equal. |

| | Hosea Ballou |
| | Hosea Ballou was one of the most influential figures in American religious life at the end of the eighteenth century and the beginning of the nineteenth century. | | | Ballou said that G-d would not infinitely punish a being for a finite sin, and if sin were infinite, then all sin was infinite and stealing a horse was the same as murdering a person. | | | It was during this revival that Hosea experienced the Spirit, declared his faith, and was baptized. |

| | Ballou believed in an all-powerful and all-loving God. | | | What is most powerful about Hosea Ballou's denial of future punishment is that he empowered people to create Heaven here on earth. | | | This church is a part of the Ballou Channing District, which includes forty-seven Unitarian Universalist congregations: thirty-eight are in southeastern Massachusetts and here in Rhode Island there are nine Unitarian Universalist congregations. |

| | It was, however, but a short time afterward that he became doubtful of the truth of the doctrine of endless misery; and these doubts increased, until he was fully convinced of its falsity, and of the truth of the great and glorious doctrine of the final holiness and happiness of all men. | | | Young Ballou, in his nineteenth year, joined the Baptist church, of which his father had been pastor. | | | The doctrine of Universalism had been embraced by a few individuals in that vicinity, but was regarded by the people generally, especially church members, with great abhorrence. |

Hosea Ballou, whom I had learned to look upon with extraordinary reverence, contained many of those expositions of scripture, several of which for a time I regarded as extremely plausible. |

| | Hosea Ballou 2nd. |
| | Ballou found much confirmation for the Universalism of his own day in the thought of Origen and argued that the doctrines of endless punishment were largely the product of Augustine's influence on early Christian thinking rather than an original tenet of the early church. | | | During his years in Roxbury he researched and wrote his Ancient History of Universalism, which attempted to discover the attitudes of the early Christian church on the questions of eternal punishment and universal salvation. | | | Ballou was also an important Universalist journalist, taking a hand in editing and writing for several Universalist periodicals. |
