Church Universal and Triumphant (CUT) is an international New Age religious organization founded in 1975 by Elizabeth Clare Prophet. It is an outgrowth (and is now the corporate parent) of The Summit Lighthouse, founded in 1958 by Prophet's husband, Mark L. Prophet. Its beliefs reflect features of the traditions of Theosophy and New Thought.〔Lewis, James R., and J. Gordon Melton, eds. (1994). ''Church Universal and Triumphant in Scholarly Perspective''. Center for Academic Publication. pp. 1–2. ISBN 978-0-8191-9634-7.〕 The church's headquarters is located near Gardiner, Montana, and the church has local congregations in more than 20 countries. ==Name== The Catholic Church originated the phrase "Church Triumphant" to refer to Christians in Heaven. The name "Church Universal and Triumphant" was announced by Elizabeth Clare Prophet on July 2, 1973, in a message from the ascended master Portia.〔Prophet, Elizabeth Clare, ''Pearls of Wisdom'', vol. 16 no. 51, December 23, 1973.〕 In 1895, Mary Baker Eddy used the terms "universal" and "triumphant" in her first ''Church Manual'' as referring to the church she founded. In the 1903 edition of this work, she capitalized these terms, referring to her church as the "Church Universal and Triumphant". In 1919 Alice A. Bailey, in what some students of esotericism view as a reference to the future organization, prophesied that the religion of the New Age would appear by the end of the 20th century and that it would be called the ''Church Universal''.
