- In 1525, several brave reformers met in secret to found a new denomination of christianity. Since this meeting in Zürich Switzerland, anabaptism has become a global movement, reaching every corner of the earth.
This video discusses the founding, persecution, and spread of anabaptism, the religious movement that the Amish, Mennonites, and Hutterites came from.

I hoped you learned something about the INCREDIBLE story of the Anabaptists! It took SOOO long to make so please SUBSCRIBE to our channel, and SHARE this video with those who may be interested!
Let me know what you thought of this video! Any suggestions??
I am of the Black Baptist persuasion in the United States. My understanding is that, because of persistent segregation, Black Baptists either left or were driven away from White Baptists. So today, we have the Southern Baptist Convention - the White Baptists, and the National Baptist Convention - the Black Baptists.
I went to a Catholic high school and that is where I learned about the Protestant Reformation. Being a contrarian, I chose to become a Lutheran - at a Catholic school. Still, my family background was Black Baptist, and I returned to my roots years later.
What I intended to say was, "Thank you!" Thank you for clarifying the term "Anabaptist": over the years, the Greek meaning of the prefix became cloudy to me. I thought calling ourselves "Baptist" in the U.S. was a shortening of the term. Yours is the second video to make the connection between the Amish, Mennonites, and Baptists.
Also, you explained that the Anabaptists wound up splitting from the original schismites like Luther, Calvin, and Zwingli primarily because they opposed State involvement with the Church. That's huge! And it shows our hypocrisy in how Reformers executed dissenters the same way the Catholic Church executed Reformers. Flawed human beings we be.
Pardon my rambling. I'm older than you by at least four decades, yet I focused on your content like a student still in school. Really good work: I subscribed!
You’re doing a wonderful job! The one thing I would recommend for a future videos is to look up online and listen to the pronunciation of place names and people’s names before you use them in a video. For example, in every Germanic language, whenever you see “ch” it sounds like the ch in Bach, rather than in cheese. When you see a W it sounds like our letter V. When you see the letter U, it sounds like “oo.” When you see “eu” it sounds like the English “oy.” The Germanic letter J is pronounced with an English “Y” sound. So Waldshut is “Valds-hoot,” or Woods Hat! 😊
I really appreciate all the research you are doing into Anabaptist history, and how accessible you are making it on UA-cam! In the future I would also love to see some videos about the Schwarzenau Brethren, who took the Early Church and the Anabaptists as role models.
Your accent sounds Canadian to me. Are you a Canadian Mennonite? God bless you brother! 🙏🏽
As a Mennonite, well done. I appreciate this basic over view of the Anabaptist movements... This was the first video I watched, going to see what other content you have!
✏️ “ Flawed human beings we be.”
I did indeed! I'm going to look for a few more. I have very close friends around my town that are Anabaptist. I love them so much and I just wanted to learn more about. Honestly, I'm glad I did! I'm gonna check out some more vids and History stuff. I know it's an old vid! Haha but hope y'all have a good Evening!
Loved the video. When people think of the 16th century reformation, they tend to think of the 'mainstream' reformer's and the 'radical' reformation can very much be overlooked, or not even known about at all. Very important part of the reformation.
So true @JAG ! Unfortunately, most people are totally unaware of the Radical Reformation. But if we spread the word, we can change this. Merry Christmas!
Great and very interesting video. I live in western Canada and we have a Hutterite community just outside our small town. The are great farmers and supply the area with food. They are know for best chickens, eggs and pies. Their pies are served in a local restaurant and are to die for.
Yes! The Hutterites are the perfect neighbour, they don't use government services but still pay taxes, they dont buy products online, and instead support local business!

Very good! Keep up the good work! Pronounce Zurich: "Zurick".
Will do, thank-you @Donald Duncan for that correction!
Thank you for making this. It was helpful in learning about my Mennonite ancestry.
I am so glad that you found this video helpful!! @VoiceInTheWilderness85 thanks for your support!!
I’m a Hutterite and it’s sad studying about how my ancestors were persecuted for their believe
Hi @Ceddy, the persecution that your ancestors went through is indeed very sad. I am actually making a video specifically on the Hutterites right, and the brutal persecution they underwent by the catholic and magisterial states churches as well as the Ottoman Empire. However, the Hutterites have not only revived their population but greatly increased their population by staying true to their traditional values! Thank-you for your comment brother!
@@DainetheHistorian I’ll be looking forward to watching that video
@@ceddyhofer14 I live in Transylvania. It is very interesting to think that 400 years ago your ancestors lived here with mines... :)
Marvelous job, that was exactly what a was searching for: informative, objective and short account of the anabaptists movement; thank you very much.
I’m glad you enjoyed in André! Thank you so much for your kind words and support!
On target as I was looking for the history of the Hutterites and Amish. Thank you.
Hey thank you R RD! Appreciate this comment
For some interest: The Hutterites that flew persecution and got to the lands of todays Slovakia were known as ,,Habáni", and their living was very special - they made special color decorations for clay vases and pots.
Wonderful video! Please make more like these!!!
@Kathryn thank-you for your support! Are there any specific topics you were thinking of?
@@DainetheHistorian I would love to see a video on pentecost/charasmatic denominations. I don't really understand them and where they came from and how their movement grew, or the details of their worship (aside from being 'spirit filled'). There is also a charasmatic Chatholic center by me so is there some kind of relation between the two?
Also, not much is ever said about Ethiopian Orthodox vs the different Eastern Orthodox churches, that would also be a cool video. And just the history of the eastern orthodox church in general. Aside from the great schism, how involved was ot in government, how was it affected by politics and war.
Just some ideas!
Great video my brother, history is not easy to follow sometimes because you have moving parts in several places at the same time, YOU did a great job !!! Really starting to drill down on the persecution and exile of this movement, i will continue watching videos and subscribed, again great job young man, keep it up.
Hey, thanks brother! Really appreciate your comment and support. Im doing a ton of research right now, but you can expect more videos shortly!
@@DainetheHistorian Good looking forward to it, I've been looking at biblical christians in and around the 15th & 16th centuries and latter, those who had left the oppression and violence of the RCC(roman church) and the 600 years of persecution, I am 57 y.o. so glad to see a young man like yourself interested in biblical christianity and it's roots. I was in my 50's before I developed a loved for history...Great job thanks for your work.
Thank you for the research & effort you have made to produce this video, which I find instructive and clearly organized. The timelines were well presented and answered questions I have had as regards the schisms of Protestant sects.
The film has also opened up different branches of information I am quite interested in.
I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed the video Merry! Thank you for your support !
In the 1620's the Hutterites from Moravia were invited in Transylvania by the prince Gabriel (Gábor) Bethlen. It is said that when they received their invitation many of them were affraid that it is a trap, so refused. But Bethlen wanted very much them to settle in Transilvania.
Short information about Transylvania (it has nothing to do with Dracula). It was the Eastern part of Hungary, which after the Ottomans occupied its Central regions after 1526, broke from it and formed an independent princehood (under loose Ottoman vassalage), under the Hungarian king John Sigismund. In 1568, at the Diet of Torda, John Sigismund convinced by his Unitarian court preacher Francis David (in Hungarian Dávid Ferenc) about the importance of religious freedom, declared the freedom of religion for the first time in the world, allowing all religions from this little state (Catholics, Lutherans, Calvinists, Unitarians, Orthodoxs, Jews) to profess their faith in total liberty. So Transylvania became the only land of religious freedom in Europe.
Gábor Bethlen was a Hungarian Calvinist, and faithful to the Law of Religious Freedom declared in 1568. He led three campaigns against the Habsburgs, and forced them to recognize the religious freedom of the Hungarians from the Kingdom of Hungary under the Habsburg control. He heard about the persecutions of Hutterites, and wanted them to settle in Transylvania, understanding also that the Hutterites are very good craftsmen and wanted them to spread this in his country. So when he was refused by the Hutterites, he decided that he has to convince them of his good intentions, but to do this he did a very surprising thing. He put some of his men to abduct some Hutterites and bring them by force in Transylvania. So they did this. Here he showed these respect and demonstrated that they have nothing to fear here, and they can live and profess their religion in total freedom. So in 1621 the "abducted" Hutterites went back to Moravia and convinced the other Hutterites to come to Transylvania. The Hungarians and the Saxons from Transylvania named them Habán (from the German Haushaben). The Hutterites came in great numbers in Transylvania and lived a peaceful life until 1690, when their old enemies, the Habsburgs took over Transylvania, ending the independence of this land. The Habsburgs immediately started to persecute them and to enforce on them the Catholic faith. So in 1767, when other Hutterites too joined them from the West, they fled Transylvania to Wallachia, where they stood 3 years, then they moved to the Russian Empire (todays Ukrain), then in 1874 they all moved in the USA.
Today in Transylvania and Hungary in different museums you can find the beautifully painted Habán vases, plates, as relics of the Hutterites 140 years spent in Transylvania.
My theory a bit difrent, Dracula was a count seeking peace from crazy extended relatives. They would keep showing up To his house host it and impailed them all.
This is such an interesting video! Such a great subject to cover and I can't imagine it being done any better. Thanks so much! :)
You are so welcome @jagna2838!
Very good and informative video!
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for your deep dive into the subject. Doing my family tree I found Amish and Mennonite roots in early Pennsylvania. So I became interested in their history.
Zwingli, the epitome of Swiss neutrality, straddling both sides of the fence! I speak as a Swiss. My Dad, before he arrived in Canada, was from a canton close to Zurich and adhered to the Zwingli principles of faith. In order to marry my mother, a Roman Catholic, he had to sign a document saying he would never speak of the bible or of his faith to any future offspring, which promise he kept. Growing up as devout Catholics, the word 'Zwingli' was synonymous with 'Daddy's going to hell' :-) Those were pre-Vatican II days. I left the Roman faith over 40 years ago at which time I diligently studied the doctrines of the former 'bad guys', the Reformers. Then when I was thoroughly indoctrinated, I was shocked to discover that my Dad's hero was, in fact, a persecutor of the REAL believers in Sola Scriptura.
Wow, talk about twist and turns!
@@Birdylockso Wasn't it though! And subsequent to writing the above, I found out that the Anabaptist articles of faith were drawn up in Schleitheim, Schaffhausen, the canton that my Dad was from. What freedom it has been to be able to explore all the things I couldn't do growing up in pre-Vatican II days when everything one read was subject to the dreaded Index. If it didn't have the 'nihil obstat', you couldn't read it. If you were rebellious, which I wasn't, you risked being anathematized. As long as I was a Catholic, I obeyed the rules. When I found a 'different' truth, I left. How unlike today where Catholics pretty much cherry pick what they want to believe.
@@dianehelena So, are you now with the Mennonite group or some Anabaptist offshoots now? Canada has plenty of Mennonites for sure.
@@Birdylockso My study of the bible and history has led me on an ongoing quest to find a first century-type church, whether Anabaptist or other. I'm now in my '80s so I'd better hurry up 🙂. Thanks for asking!
@@dianehelena salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone. Trust His accomplished work on the cross to save you from your sins if you have not. It's not about trying to find the earliest denomination. The true church has always existed and is made up of all those who are found in Christ. Those saved individuals meet together in local assemblies which is the visible church. The Roman Catholics really messed up by insisting that Peter's apostolic line is passed down through succession and that it is the church that has the final authority in deciding what scripture says. The word of God is breathed out by Him and He is the one who declared what He means in His word. Sola scriptura is correct and the scriptures contain all we need to know for life and godliness.
I realize that it's very possible you know and believe these things but I just wanted to share them in case you didn't. Hope this blesses your soul either way.
With love,
Chris from California
Fantastic channel. I'd really love to see some content from you pertaining to the American Great Awakenings.
Great video! One major correction needed where you depicted Menno Simons and Jakob Amann as on opposite ends of a continuum. Menno was a Dutch Anabaptist. Jakob came from the Swiss Anabaptists. The Swiss brethren believed in a fiery brotherly love, and excommunicated only as a last resort,even then still loving the excommunicated. Menno, on the other hand, believed the church must be pure, and excommunicated people readily and harshly. At one point, he excommunicated the entire Swiss brethren church because of their unwillingness to excommunicate wrongdoers!
Because of very heavy persecution, the Swiss moved down the mountain into Germany, and lived among the Dutch Mennonites, who were quite prosperous by this time because they were no longer persecuted. The Swiss brethren,who were destitute and had no means to print their own Shleitheim Confession of Faith, accepted the Dutch Mennonites' Dordrecht Confession of Faith which was in print and widely distributed. Unfortunately, Menno Simons harsh church ban was included in this confession, and Jakob Amann thought they should be doing this. Other Swiss brethren didn't agree. Thus the division, which was Jakob actually agreeing with Menno.
Love it. This to me, is the most fascinating part of reformation Church History, some were powerful Christian saints.
Thank you @hdrake1000! I agree, this is a truly fascinating and consequential part of the Reformation.
Those who resisted the deformers were the saints.
Great job, man!
Thank you for your excellently detailed history of these three important communities in Protestant history. I have grown up with friends from the Mennonite church but really didn't understand their differences until watching this video!
It is my understanding that these men are the reformers that led to ALL current evangelicals that baptize believers only.
Yes! Your understanding is correct Breezy, the anabaptists were the first to replace infant baptism with believers baptism... which though at the time was a radical idea, as you said, it is now common place! The same is true for separation of the church and state; the anabaptists wanted to separate the church and the state, but the magisterial protestants wanted to keep them intertwined. However, this separation is now commonplace as-well
Wonderful post that brings clarity to our understanding the distinctions of each (and all) of these movements.
Thank You and
GOD BLESS
Thank you for your support and kind words Gordon, god bless to you as-well!
I LOVE YOUR EXPLANATION AND I AM SUBSCRIBING
Thank-you @ZBS !!
hugely informative and detailed, thank you!
I just subscribed. Hope to see more of your videos.
Thank-you Marianne Waldner for your support! I uploaded a video about the Amish, the most conservative and traditional anabaptist sect, which you may find interesting! You can find it on my channel, enjoy!!
Life savior! Thank you I learned so much!
Victoria Robles Thank-you for your comment, I really appreciate it!
Thanks for these great researched videos. 👍🏽☺️
As a mainstream Mennonite, I appreciate that he conveyed Mennonites correctly, not as the same as the Amish. So many videos on You Tube get that wrong.
Great video! But I need to call out the use of the Death of General Wolfe in describing the 30 Years’ War. Wrong continent and century, lol. But still, great work!
Matthew, you are well-read on your history! Thanks for letting me know who that image is of and thanks for your support!
Awesome video! Good job
Thank-you for your support brother!
Thanks for the suit and the accurate well presented info
Glad you enjoyed it @reubenmiller7988 !
So well done. My people ended up in Waterloo County in Ontario, Canada at the end of the 1700s. There are a couple missing links for me. Do you know if they came directly to Ontario or through elsewhere? Thank you.
Thank-you so much for your kind words and support! You are a descendant from mennonites in Ontario? That is so fascinating!! While most mennonites in Eastern Canada came from Upstate New York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland, many "Russian" mennonites immigrated directly to Eastern Canada from the Ukraine. If your ancestry is predominantly Romanian, Russian, or Ukrainian, this may include your descendants. Whereas most Swiss/Dutch/German anabaptists came to America first, then Canada.
My 4th Great-Granduncle Staats Oberholtzer migrated to Ontario from Bucks County, Pennsylvania in the late 1700s with several other families. I'm very curious to know if he's also your ancestor
I just went through my ancestry recently and found out I'm related to the Pennsylvania Amish, crazy never would have thought
Thats really interesting Andrew! How far back are you descended?
My ancestor is the martyr Hans Landis, he was beheaded. My Amish friends told me they sing about Hans in the Amish churches to this day.
Excellent thank you very much!
Thanks for this reformers👍🙏
Wow.. great video. thanks a ton
@Andrean Glad you liked it!
Such a great educational video. Regardless of anyone's religious beliefs we have to learn from history. The teachings of Jesus is something we should all follow, but this is a lesson on how crazy religion can make some people. Try to picture yourself living in these times.
Yes! Thank-you so much for your comment brother! We must learn from history or else we are doomed to repeat it!
Even if one is not Christian, it is important to learn about the Anabaptists who were pivotal in separation of church and state which we as Americans take for granted, but was paid for by the lives of these radicals!
Thanks
this is a very well done, indepth video
Thank-you so much!
Small typo: separated is with an A. Thanks for the video. :-)
Thanks for that!
Great video. Just subscribed. Can you give some information on Anabaptist settlements in Ukraine?
Thank-you Snicko!! Of course! Are you Ukrainian? The anabaptists came to western parts of Ukraine in the 16th century, fleeing persecution from the catholic and magisterial protestant state churches of the Holy roman empire (mostly modern day Germany), and other European states. They were treated very well, and by the late 1800's, there was over 200,000 practicing anabaptists in the Ukraine. However, the Soviet Union harshly persecuted them, and many fled to North/South America (read about the Russian Mennonites in Mexico, Bolivia etc... really interesting). But today, Ukraine still houses one of the largest (and growing) baptist populations in the world. In the Ukraine, theres also the "All-Ukrainian Union of Church of Evangelical Christian-Baptists", (AUC-ECB), which has over 300,000 active members attending over 2,800 churches
While I was doing some extra research to answer you question, I discovered that the Baptist church in the Ukraine is attracting many young people, and has over 20,000 students in Baptist universities, which is really nice to see!
If you want more information, please let me know brother!
Great video thank you.
Thank-you Manuel! Glad you enjoyed the video
Excellent content
Thank you Nathaniel!
Good One !
Plz.Try another Video on Unitarian,Binetarian and Trinitarian Concepts in Christianity
@Hassan Mubasher I appreciate your support brother! I will absolutely be rolling out videos on those topics, stay tuned!
Great video
Thank-you for the support brother!
Sounds like the Anabaptists were Transformers, not Reformers. Thanks for your study of their history.
Thank-you. As a Quaker I consider that we were part of that tradition.
You are certainly part of the tradition!
Hoffman and the Munster Rebellion left out dubiously.
It was an important event but it certainly was not what founded anabaptism. What would you want me to say about it?
Very interesting!
Thanks @tudor737!
🙏👍 Thank You and God Bless You
You are so welcome @David Persson! Thank you for your support and Merry Christmas!!
Dear God, your skin is absolutely perfect, how did you do that?
Haha, to be honest, its just really good lighting!
I grew up amish, and just recently left.
Thank you 🙏
Is this the kid who did the video years ago that explained the difference between the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th dimensions?
My grandmother was a Mennonite. Where can I find possible information about the Von der Muhlen (Meahl) family?
My study of the Amish and Mennonites notes the same events and people that the video portrays. But there is something missing:
We could treat this history as one more example in which “the establishment” tried to squash a healthy, organic expression of personal freedom. But our ancestors had legitimate concerns about political stability, pressures from the Catholic Pope, economic factors, et cetera. Isn’t the fear of attack by the armies loyal to Rome similar to modern worries about nuclear attack or terrorism?
The story of the Anabaptists isn’t complete when we see them only as martyrs, failing to understand the pressure exerted upon the people who felt compelled to oppose them.
Interesting, Also the Church of Christ teaches that infants cannot be born into sin since they are innocent. This is logical.
Interesting!
I am proud to be from Melchior B “ the exile “❤️
I have been studying this movement and I think my family with Anabaptists as Mennonites in 1731. They came to Pennsylvania at first but would later move to Virginia and then West Virginia. Do you know of a place I can research this theory?
My family came from Austria/Germany.
That’s really fascinating Robert, I would check with your close and distant relatives first, and then check with the Pennsylvania state archives . I am not an American (although I wish to be soon) and am unfamiliar with what resources there are. I encourage you to keep looking though! Knowing your roots is very important! Thank you for your comments and your support brother!
I guess most baptists went to Pennsylvania first. Lancester County is the area where still many Mennonites and Amish live today. It's probably quite tricky to track your ancestors exactly, as bapitists were forced to move constantly. For example the name "Haas", one of the most common names in the amish community, is known in Austria, Switzerland and Germany.
@@Dubbudha : Thanks for your sincere attempt to help. I’m not sure where you got the information that that Haas is a common Amish name? It is not. The closest surname I know is Hess. The surname Hess is a common name among the plain Anabaptist Brethren churches who moved to North America and are descendants of the Schwarzenau Brethren.
@@robertfridley280: I would recommend contacting the Young Center for Anabaptist and Pietist Studies at Elizabethtown College in Pennsylvania. They should be able to help you or point you in the right direction. There’s also the Amish & Mennonite Heritage Center in Millersburg Ohio. You should be able to find both of these groups online. Happy researching!
It's terrible that we would treat our Christian brothers this way
Very interesting my ancestors were german and Swiss Mennonites that migrated to Pennsylvania in the early 1700s
I’m a Hutterite, so our ancestors might have been on the same ship to America😅
@@ceddyhofer14 possibly 😄 they migrated to the Netherlands and from there to Pennsylvania
@@jeffreyrutt658 i think the Hutterites went to North Dakota when they arrived in the US, later on some moved to Canada which is where I am.
@Jeffrey thank-you for your comment and support brother! That is so interesting that your ancestors came from the Netherlands in the 1700's!
Yes! Most Hutterites originally went to North Dakota, South Dakota, and Montana. Many then moved North to the prairie provinces in Canada. Many Hutterites have stayed in Canada until this day, but many Hutterites actually went back to America! I will be covering this in my next video that is specifically on the Hutterites!
What a stupid thing to die for! Baptizing a baby doesn't hurt the baby! It is only bad if people are so stupid that they think it saves the child! Presbyterians believe in infant baptism and believers baptism! One is representing the promise God made to Abraham, the other is about sealing your confession of faith. It is not complicated! Thank you for video!
I have a great respect for Amish ! I think they are true trinitarian followers of Christ who have fully submit their wills to the Lord Jesus Christ, His Father , and the Holiest of the Holy Spirit. God bless all Anabaptist peoples
No, they don't. They are good people , but do not believe in salvation at all. I grew up Amish and was excommunicated and forbidden to talk about Jesus to my cousin's , which I had been sharing my salvation with. I was only 12 at the time. We were treated horribly for years after that. They need Jesus like any other unsaved people.
Theologically speaking, in many ways the Amish has become that which it opposed.
Baptism as an adult? Not something to die over---- my opinion. As I remember, Christians think Christ said a person can't get into heaven without being baptized, so baptism is a first thing. However it is also good to do it as an adult if you want.. However how come the Catholic Church thought they were being holy by killing? Power corrupts with only God as an overseer.
I come from Goertzen from mens side. I want so bad to retrace my ancestors past back to Germany.
Hi. I just subscribe. I hope God helps you reach your goal to 1000 subscribers.
Also I have 2 questions.
You mention that Anababtist flew to Romania. I.m from Romania and this is the first time I heard this, I never knew they were in to my country. Our country was ortodox. Do you have any insights about how they were treated during their time there?
Is it true that Martin Luther never wanted to cause division or separation in the catholic church and start a new movement? Did he regreted his actions to some extent? Didn't he tried to convince people not to leave the catholic church?
Yes! The Transylvanian Prince, Gabriel Bethlen, in 1621, invited the anabaptists (mostly the Hutterites) to come to the country and settle the land, as they needed craftsmen and farmers. In the following years, more and more anabaptists fled to Romania, fleeing the persecution committed by the catholic and magisterial protestant state churches. Because more and more Hutterites and anabaptists kept coming to Romania, I am sure they were welcomed and treated warmly!
With regards to your second question, I do not know very much about the protestant reformation or of Martin Luther's true motivations, however, my knowledge of church history and christianity is always growing, so when I feel that I have the knowledge to answer your question, I certainly will!
Also, thank-you brother for subscribing, means a lot!
I’m a Hutterite and I’ve studied a lot about my Hutterite/anabaptist history. Luther didn’t want division in the church, he wanted the church to change
Please look into the writings by Peter Hoover who also delves into this history, two books, Behold The Lamb, & The Power of the Strength. As Daine says the lords in Moravia were much more tolerant and found a brother in Count Zinzendorf. This is where the 100 year 24/7 prayer meeting began. I cannot count Zwingli, Calvin or perhaps even Martin Luther as true Christ followers. How could they be and still hate their brothers enough to murder them and their families?
Hi Tom, thank you for the recommendation! I will definitely check out Peter Hoover.
Are the Anabaptists and their various denominations (Hutterites -- Amish) "socialist" in the sense that they would be considered today's Democratic Socialist or Socia Democrats, not "state socialists" as in Marx and Engles. Absolutely, I will put this video and others like it on my channel. Thanks!
I don't know honestly that's a really complex question. They are more like some other 3rd thing
There are many churches and different baptists alike believing themselves to be the true church. Yet the Truth revealed, not a single church accepts Him as He really is, no not one. Do not stumble over the letter and remember: the Spirit of the Word, and not the letter, is the Way, Truth and Life as it is written.
Thus says the Lord of His true church:
"Again I say to you, My church has no walls, and is called by no other name except the name The Father has given Me. Its members are of one mind and one spirit, of one love, one flock with one Shepherd, a people set apart who keep The Commandments of The Father and remain faithful to The Son, striving always to walk in My ways. For those who truly know Me dwell in Me, and I in them. For they are Mine, even as I am theirs also - My body, My bride. Therefore woe to any church of men, who claims to be the true church and remnant. Woe, I say to them. For they have placed themselves in the seat of The Father, and therefore remain under God’s judgment. For none walk according to the Truth, not one accepts Me as I truly am; all have gone astray, teaching as doctrine the commandments of men. Beloved, no one can come to Me, unless The Father who sent Me draws them to Me. And only those who accept Me as I truly am are of My body, for The Truth resides within them and is revealed by their works. Yes, even these stumble in their walk, for they are but flesh. Yet I am He who searches the Hearts and minds, I know My own; I know whose love is steadfast, Whose faith is unmoving... And this is the True Church My people long for, the remnant Which now is and is yet to come... For it is not found outwardly in the world, But inwardly, in the temple of God... I am The Lord."
Says He whose name is YAHUSHUA-YAHUWAH. From His Volumes of Truth, the Word of the Lord spoken to this generation!
Thus says The Lord, concerning baptism: "Let My beloved first be baptized in spirit and in truth, filled with the knowledge of The Holy, nourished by the Word of Truth. Let them come to Me in sincere repentance, and receive forgiveness of sins in The Messiah’s name... All burdens lifted, immersed and purified in The Spirit of God. For The Holy One of Israel is He who baptizes with The Holy Spirit and with fire, and He knows His own.
Therefore, hear and understand: The Water of Life is not of the earth. Rather The Water of Life is that which flows from the body of Messiah. For in Him alone shall one know salvation and receive everlasting life. Therefore be baptized in the knowledge and wisdom of The Beloved. Listen to Him and walk in His ways, and you shall surely be accepted.
Tell Me, is the water of the earth able to take away your sins, or cleanse you of your transgressions? Can a river lead you to salvation or a stream call you to repentance? In what waters have you heard The Word of God speak? Thus baptism by water can not save you.
Rather salvation comes by the hearing of The Gospel,
And through the confession of the mouth that YahuShua,
Called Jesus, is Lord, believing HE IS WHO HE IS...
The Risen One...
The Only Way, The Only Truth, The Only Life...
For only by true repentance, in accord with the heart’s desire
To be in union with The Messiah, shall one be set free.
So then go forth, and be baptized in the waters of the earth, if you so desire. Yet remember this: Baptism in and of itself is nothing, unless the heart of the one being immersed has truly been converted. Thus baptism is for a testimony, an exercise in faith for the one who is saved already; or a mere dampening of the clothes of the one who came forth in pretense. For I am The Lord, I search the hearts and minds, and I know whether or not one has truly been converted in their heart."
Remember what you have heard, honor with mouth is nothing unless the heart has confessed YahuShua is who He is. Let it be your joy! There is one confession He is very pleased in, behold it shall be revealed to you.
For thus has the Lord spoken through one of the 144 000:
"There is one God and Father, one Lord who causes to be - YAHUWAH. There is one Savior, The Only Begotten of The Father, by whom all things consist - YAHUSHUA. And they are ONE.
If then there is only one Lord, one God and one Savior, and in our language He is called “Lord” and “God”, then would not calling anyone or anything else “Lord” or “God”, whether a false god or a man, be blasphemy?
Does not The Lord Himself search our hearts and minds, even our innermost thoughts and intentions? Does He not know who we are referring to, when we say “Jesus[1] is Lord”? Even throughout the world, believers and unbelievers alike know the name “Jesus” (a name given to YahuShua by men) refers to He who was crucified and rose from the dead. And if we say YAHUSHUA is YAHUWAH, is this not also self-evident?
Even before the earth was made, there is ONE alone who was and is and has always been THE LORD ABSOLUTE, which by definition demands there can be only one. Thus all others, whether man, false deity or carved image, referred to as “Lord” in English or in any other language, are false! - Deceivers! Impostors! Idols! - To call any of these “Lord” is blasphemy, even on the highest order!
For thus has The Lord spoken:
One God...
One Son, The Only Way to The Father...
One Truth, One Word, One Messiah, One Spirit;
One Food, One Bread and One Drink...
One Body...
Of which I am all,
The All in All."
If you so choose, receive brothers and sisters! Freely i was given, freely receive. Receive also this warning, for the great and terrible day draws near:
"My servants, to warn your brothers and sisters,
Even to your neighbors and countrymen,
Whether they will hear or whether
They will forbear, is LOVE...
For only an evil man would fail to warn his fellows,
When he had knowledge of coming calamity...
And only a wicked man meet for death would save himself,
While forsaking those nearby to the sword...
Says The Lord."
And He most certainly takes no pleasure in the destruction of the wicked as it is written, nor is there everlasting torment as taught by the churches of men.
What was the difference, between Mennonite church and the Mennonite colony communities as well as Herrorites colonies?
Hey Jeff, great question! The Hutterites share everything in common, within their colony. This is in vast comparison to the Mennonites who hold individual property. This is the main difference though there are others. I cover this in the Hutterite documentary that is coming soon!
@@DainetheHistorian oh sorry my bad it's Hutterites. I just heard of them here in Canada we buy some products from them. They have uniform they made their own clothings , i was amazed.
Just found out that one of my ancestors was drowned for Anabaptism in Zurich in the year 1644
That is such a horrible event, but also very interesting. Thank-you for your comment Tiaan!
@@DainetheHistorian very intresting indeed,i was busy with my family tree and saw that my forefather "Martin Streler Oberholtzer" born 1595-1644 was drowned for Anabaptism.i then proceeded to search what is Anabaptism and this was the first video in YT i saw.I am from South Africa and never heard the word "Anabaptism"..i am on a knowledge quest and you'r channel is helping alot,i look forward to seeing you'r channel grow and may God bless you
Is it just me, or is the Münster rebellion (and the forced polygamy) missing?
You can trace the church all the way back to Jesus. We were never tainted by the Catholic Church so we never needed to reform. Yes different ones tried to right wrongs in the Catholic Church but i don't have any heritage that goes to Catholic Church. Even though some modern "Baptist" claim to have their origin in the reformation thats not true for all. Jesus made a promise that the gates of hell would not prevail against the church, and it has been kept. Though we've always been persecuted and our writings burned in an attempt wipe us out it hasn't worked. I believe His church always been in practice and is now the Independent Baptist Church.
Well,you did a good job explaining,they didn't call themselves anabaptist,the state did,and zwigli wanted the state to be in charge but others didnt,didn't, think it is good now that shows how europe was,it's like it's pretty good that people made a religion because they were close knit people,the thing is the church is suppose to be free to worship whatever it is and they went after a people who unliked murder,I guess the people of the church wanted people to worship them,but these people worshipped the spirit of God not the catholic church,the protestants separated from each other,when you listen to this video it's simple to understand,the catholic church people used wanted you to die if you didn't worship them,didn't want to give people without the church a chance and probably didn't want to help either and probably have to beg,these mennos,armanns,, and hutterites ,I see what the church might of been thinking in 1525 ad but if that's the case no one should attack peaceful caring people no matter what religion,there was alot of meaningless war than,later was the 30 years war,at least the Austrians whipped the slimey invading turks,but the french thought they can attack people and did this in. A way not to let you know,they were finally caught,FRANCO PRUSSIAN,and english beat napoleon who were invading trash.They come when they think your defeated so good the English kept up the work,I would think.Europeons had to be some crazy hard headed people to keep going to war.They all had reasons
I'm Catholic. I wish we can all come together one day
@grod805 thankyou for your comment! I completely agree. Christian’s are meant to be united as one church, not many.
Yeah and be under your wicked monster church system that added heresies and false doctrines into the Church and doesn't follow the Word of God. What a joke!
@@user-bk2xh5tc6d what an utterly disrespectful comment to a beautiful remark. I am not sure how this helps anything

Thank-you for the correction!
Michael Sattler and The Martyrs Mirror???
So even back then, they didn't understand the purpose of infant Baptism? What a bunch of idiots! It is simply a covenant replacing circumcision! Neither Circumcision nor Baptism saves anyone whether you are a child or an adult. John the Baptist said: "I baptize you with water, but there is one coming who will baptize you with the Holy Spirit" John's baptism was a forerunner to Christ's Baptism. They are Old and New Testament respectively. The Bible is all about covenants. Thank you for this video!
Hello Daine,
Habánsky dvor 78, 908 73 Veľké Leváre, Slovakia
This is the address of Hutterites settlement in Slovakia that is turned in museum. Hutterites resided at this place by 1900. Do you know anything about this place?
I do now! That’s a really beautiful village and it’s nice to see that they turned it into a museum, so it can be preserved and appreciated properly. The Anabaptist Hutterites expanded out of Moravia (modern day Czech Republic) and into Slovakia (back then the upper kingdom of Hungary) in the late 1500’s, creating hundreds of settlements. The Habánsky dvor Vel’ké Leváre (Haban Yard/village) was one of these settlements, and was actually founded in 1592 AD. So it’s a very old village, but seems to be in very good condition, I would love to visit there one day! How did you find out about this place?
@@DainetheHistorian I live 40 km away
from this place. Each year first weekend in July they open this place and you can go thru the all buildings. Hutterites were here famous for making pottery. My wife comes from family of potters and thats what brought me to this place. Although I am pentecostal history of church is interesting to me. Thank you for making this video.
Pavel Laurovic that’s really interesting, thank you for sharing! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
@@pavellaurovic1432 hello from Canada.Im a hutterite.My forefathers build and practiced community living at that place.So nice to here from somebody living so close by.
@@DainetheHistorian if not to much trouble could u email pictures of pottery..tx. eliwurz12@gmai.com. TANX again
"the third baptism"
It’s interesting that many of these traditions are named after the men who started them. Talk about a “tradition of men” lol.
I converted from Protestantism to Holy Eastern Orthodoxy!! ☦️
Separated not seperated.
I don't understand why a reform was needed. The reforms are man-made, based on ideas, opinions and false "God's voice". Jesus left only one church, not many. There is enough Christians history to tell us how the first Christians were living their faith. Christianity didn't start in Berlin, but Jerusalem, than Antioch, Alexandria, Constantinople and Rome. Read the history of the Desert Egyptian Holy Fathers. That is a divine faith, the rest are just poor imitations of what Christianity should look like. Look for the Orthodox Faith. God bless!
If it took you "SOOO" long to make this video - how could it happen that you completely forgot about the Anabaptist rebellion in Muenster???
You have to understand by research they don't call themselves anabaptist,others made up that name and called them thus
I am curious about the history of non-Pacifist Anabaptist sects.
The research info isn't wrong, but there are a lot of issues. The General Wolfe painting is from the 7-Years-War instead of the 30-Years-War, the use of a Czech map with regions that didn't necessarily exist yet, pronunciations of Zürich, Rhein, and Transylvania, and showing "Austria-Hungary" which existed from 1867-1920 and really doesn't have anything to do with this.
I just wanted to let people know that there is 43k different Christian denominations-which one is right?--the answer is none of them are--we should all go back to the simple faith of Abraham
"Even before Abraham I am" said Jesus Christ!!! Simple is good, but adding to or subtracting from is evil.
The state church never represented Jesus and His kingdom at all. State power does not give its choke hold up easy.
So that’s how satan did it. He just split Protestants against Protestants
this is what happens when you depart from the Keys of St Peter.

I would agree with them infant baptism does not save anyone
Infants need to be baptized.
They should have had 2 baptisms. One as a baby and then one when they are olded enough to make the choice.
Pre anabaptism
Gods true saved churches were always around (and being persecuted)even before the reformation from the time of Christ and preaching Grace and not of works and believers baptism. You cannot reform a false and wicked religion such as Catholicism .
That is why they separated from Catholic churches. It was not a Reformation it was a severing. I don't like the word Reformation to describe the church activities of that time either.

11:30 It is highly offending to someone with historical and geographical knowledge to hear you say, "Tyrol, modern day Italy". Tyrol is still in Austria, and the southern part wrongfully finds itself in modern day Italy - it is not a large part of it, and it is explicitly called southern. Get a fucking map
Sorry but you need to read a little book called the trail of blood as this is not an account of Anabaptists or Rebaptizers as the Catholic church called them, they were also called Paulicians, or Waldenses, they were the true church, they stood on the grounds that the catholic church had fallen away from true belief and had apostatized by introducing infant baptism among other things that were unholy. they were then called Anabatists or Rebaptizers because the baptism of the catholic church was just "getting them wet". I hope you read the trail of blood as it is very informative on how each church got their start but the TRUE Church of Jesus our Savior has never had the gates of hell prevail against it.
Also called the Vaidois.
very interesting... great stuff... lol lot of people were getting burned at the stake those days
Thank-you Anthony, really appreciate your support! Yes, it’s horrific when you learn how common place burning people at the steak was back then.
