  • Restorationism is an attitude that typifies a religious movement which sees itself as a rediscovery and establishment of the original form of Christianity. The term has been used to describe several comparably motivated Christian religious movements, some of which originated in the British Isles, but which only began to prosper in the eastern United States and then in the American frontier, in the 19th century in the wake of the Second Great Awakening. More generally, this attitude is referred to as Primitivism (which describes many movements attempting to return to early Christianity, including Baptists, Sabbatarian Church of God, Noahide Nazarenes, and before them, the Anabaptists). However, the religious movements referred to as Restorationists ordinarily: * sought a restoration of primitive Christianity * originated as distinct movements primarily in the United States * originated between approximately 1795 and 1881; * originally tended to resist identification as a Protestant church, or * may include any movement with a goal or perspective reminiscent of the 19th century restorationists
