Establishment of the New Apostolic Church

January 4th, 1863 162 years ago

The New Apostolic Church was founded in Hamburg, Germany, as a Christian chiliastic church. It emerged from the teachings of the Catholic Apostolic Church, with a focus on the imminent return of Christ and the establishment of God's kingdom on Earth. The movement, led by prominent figures, sought to reestablish apostolic traditions and promote spiritual renewal among believers. Its origins reflect the broader religious revival movements of the 19th century, addressing the spiritual needs of many in a rapidly changing society.
