In the Church Age, regardless of how DARK it became, God had His “few” who would not defile their garments. #WordStrong
Jesus said there were a “few names” even in the Sardis period (1000-1500) who had not defiled their garments. #WordStrong
These few stood FOR the truth of the Word of God and AGAINST the Roman Catholic Church long before the Reformation. #WordStrong
There were at least 5 major points of theology these “few” (Anabaptist groups) had in common…#WordStrong
They all professed to believe that the Bible alone was the final authority in every matter. #WordStrong
They all believed that baptism was only for believers and was only to be done by immersion. #WordStrong
They all believed in the separation of church and state. #WordStrong
None of them would ever pray to any dead person (“Saints”); nor would they pray for any dead person (relative in “purgatory”). #WordStrong
They all rejected the Roman Catholic mass. #WordStrong
