Revivalist clash with universalism sparked in St Paul
In a New Ulm Review column from May 5 1909 a St Paul Universalist minister denounces the revivalist slogan My creed is simply Jesus Christ and Hell arguing against eternal punishment. The piece cites Archbishop Glennon’s sermon criticizing modern indulgent women and notes public debate over tax measures and labor impacts. It mentions Lake Crystal pastors protesting a Sunday baseball bill and recalls clairvoyants leaving the state under a new law, with brief international and national commentary.
