Plymouth Brethren

This group is also known as the Assemblies of Brethren. They’re a low church & a Nonconformist Christian Movement. A low church, in Anglican Christianity, refers to those who give little emphasis to rituals.

Their history can be traced to Dublin, Ireland, in the mid to late 1820s. It originated from Anglicanism. This group emphasizes nuda scriptura. This is the belief that the Bible is the only authority for church doctrine & practice.

This group started in Dublin, Ireland. This is where several groups of Christians that met informally to celebrate the Eucharist together. The 1st meeting began in 1825. They didn’t have any liturgy, order of service, or even ministers. They believe that since their guide to do it was “the Bible alone” they sought to do it according to their own interpretation of the biblical text.

The first meeting on the British mainland was held in December 1831 in Plymouth, England. The assembly in Plymouth had more than 1,000 people, in fellowship, in 1845. They became known as “the brethren of Plymouth” & were then called “Plymouth Brethren.”
