Alexander Campbell belied in a Christianity that could bring all followers together. This would be accomplished by the restoration of the true gospel created by the apostles. While he did not believe all sects would end, he understood people would always have opinions. Different sects were fine as long as they did not interfere with what was most important, including baptism by immersion. He believed America was the place this could happen because American did not suffer from religious persecution and therefore could focus on a full restoration of the gospel.
