Does the Bible support the isolation that the Amish keep. Listen to the book of Acts and try to find this teaching. On the contrary, the Apostles were commanded to go forth and preach the Gospel.

Tradition in the name of god lol that all non of the practice are in bible lol perhaps they need to stop listening to their pastor who want to control everything.

@MaryYoder64 do you read your bible each day Mary Yoder...I am married to an ex-mennonite man and his family is wonderful and loving to us and to those around them....and I also know amish families as I live in an area where the amish and mennonites reside and they are just human beings like all the rest of us...some live good and some do not...

Does any know if there is a part 2 to this?  It doesn't seem to be the whole sermon. Can someone let me know if they have found it? Thanks!

What this man has found is a cheap substitute for Christian faith. Saying prayers won't save you, neither will emotional experience. Faith, repentence, baptism, and a faithful life unto death are salvation. What did Jesus tell the rich young ruler? Did he tell him to "get saved" like a Baptist? If the sinner's prayer is so important, why isn't it in the Bible? If the Roman's Road is so important, why did the Apostle Paul clutter it all up with the other stuff? Go back to your church.

@MaryYoder64 What this man found was the FREE GIFT of God by faith in Jesus Christ alone. He knows he is saved and wants to tell others and would never believe that he is "better". There are no "good works" before salvation, that anyone can do that will please God.

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8,9.

[MaryYoder64]

please people do not believe everything this man is saying about the amish ,what he says is true of some of the amish but not all of them, i know because i was amish, i just wish people that leave the amish faith would stop thinking that they are so much better now they think themselves better then amish i just have to wonder did they study there bible before or after they left.

@McCartanTransport If you haven't already, you should watch "Trouble In Amish Paradise," about two families who tried doing just that.

I'm not one to tell you how to live, but It's my perspective as a fellow Christian that although the amish have their traditions, and that some of those traditions cause problems, that they still have a lot of things right. I would argue that instead of leaving the amish(even if you are excommunicated), that you should start your own community of plain living christians. Essentially the amish do that already, only with you doing it-it would create more truth inside the plain people.

@maxtube22 yeah but what religion doesnt teach that? i know christianity does for sure most all religions say if its not there way your going to hell the amish are no differnt than most religions in that aspect
