Swedenborgianism ( swee-dən-BORJ-ee-ə-NIZZ-əm) or The New Church, refers to the theological tradition of several historically related Christian denominations that developed under the influence of the theology of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772). Swedenborg's writings focus on a narrative of Christianity's historical decline due to the loss of the "inner sense" of Scripture into a purely exoteric understanding of faith.
