The Universal Alliance (French: Alliance universelle), formerly known as Universal Christian Church (Église chrétienne universelle) and followers as Christ's Witnesses (Témoins du Christ), is a Christian-oriented new religious movement founded in France in 1952 by Georges Roux, a former postman in the Vaucluse department. Roux claimed to be the reincarnation of Christ and was thus named the "Christ of Montfavet", a village on the commune of Avignon where he lived then.

has abstract	L’Alliance Universelle est une association culturelle créée en août 1983 et dirigée par la fille de Georges Roux, Jacqueline, jusqu’en 2017, date de son décès. Le président actuel est Pierre Moorkens. Elle fait suite à l’Église chrétienne universelle, association cultuelle que les témoins parisiens et toulonnais de Georges Roux, communément surnommé « le Christ de Montfavet », avaient fondée en 1952 (voir Historique). Georges Roux se disait « Nouveau Témoin du Père » (Mission Divine, p 50), capable de guérir, lui ainsi que ses adeptes par ce qu’il a appelé « le Verbe », charisme prétendant mettre à la portée de l’homme l’expression de la présence divine. Il promettait à ses contemporains la « Cité de Dieu […] sur la Terre » (Mission Divine, p 207) s’ils correspondaient à son Enseignement. Dans les années 1950, des polémiques débouchant sur des procès eurent lieu à la suite de quatre décès prétendument sans soins (voir controverses et polémiques). (fr) The Universal Alliance (French: Alliance universelle), formerly known as Universal Christian Church (Église chrétienne universelle) and followers as Christ's Witnesses (Témoins du Christ), is a Christian-oriented new religious movement founded in France in 1952 by Georges Roux, a former postman in the Vaucluse department. Roux claimed to be the reincarnation of Christ and was thus named the "Christ of Montfavet", a village on the commune of Avignon where he lived then. He wrote three books containing the doctrines of the religious group, including the rejection of several dogmas commonly accepted by the main churches (Jesus' divinity and resurrection, the existence of the Devil, and the accuracy of the Gospels, among other things). Vegetarian diet, high degree of proselytism and miraculous healings were the main practices of the organization. The group grew quickly in France and some other countries, counting several thousands of faithful, but memberships are currently on the decline. After Roux's death in 1981, the Universal Christian Church was replaced by the Universal Alliance, a cultural association founded in August 1983 and led by one of Roux's daughter. In the 1950s, the religious group was the subject of criticisms in the media when some faithful and their children died after having refused medical treatments, and was classified as a cult in the 1995 parliamentary report established by the Parliamentary Commission on Cults in France.
