Swedenborgian Church of North America
The Swedenborgian Church in North America (also known as the General Convention of the Church of the New Jerusalem). The Administrative Offices of the denomination are located at 50 Quincy St., Cambridge, Massachusetts.
==Beliefs==
The Swedenborgian Church draws its faith from the Bible as illuminated by the teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772). In 2003, the ''Swedenborgian Church of North America'' had about 1,800 members, almost identical to the membership it had in 1981 but rather less than the 5,440 it had in 1925.〔(The Swedenborgian Church ) The Association of Religion Data Archives〕
As a loose affiliation of regional associations, the Swedenborgian Church does not make any statements as to the exact authority of Swedenborg's writings on the Bible or to the correctness of either. Each Society and member is given the responsibility to arrive at their own conclusions, and the denomination allows for discussion and debate. It is also liberal on social issues and sexual ethics, such as the ordination of women, homosexuality, and abortion.
