a sect of Russian dissenters who are described by Dr. Pinkerton in his account of the Greek Church in Russia as very ignorant and much divided in opinion. They go under the general name of Spasova Soglasia, or the Union for Salvation. Their leading tenet is that Antichrist has come and begun his ruin of the Church, and has put an end to everything good, and that a gradual extinction of all holiness is now going on. The Netovtshins appear to be an offshoot of the Pomorane (q.v.). See Platov's Present View of the Russian Church.
