Excerpt from The Modern History of Universalism: From the Era of the Reformation to the Present Time The event of the Reformation is connected with the History of Universalism, inasmuch as it was the means of setting the human mind at liberty, of en couraging the love of truth and free inquiry, and thereby of bringing many to believe in the eventual salvation of the whole world. It taught men that they possessed the right of private judgment, and exhorted them most earnestly to exercise it. It pointed out the fallibility of the Pope and the Cath olic Church, exposed their errors and contradictions, and thereby destroyed, in many minds, the rever ence which had been long entertained for their de cisions. It gave to the people the Bible, which, by authority, they had been forbidden to use and having translated it into the vernacular tongues of many nations, it urged them to study it in consid eration of their duty, their happiness, and their sal vation. These advantages and this advice, sec onded by the desires and the rising zeal of the peo ple, gave a new face to religion in Europe. With the authority of the Catholic Church the Reform ers renounced many of her doctrinal errors. New communities of Christians arose, distinct from her in their doctrine and discipline.
