Anabaptist History (Day 15) The Munster Tragedy and Melchior Hoffman

http://www.radicalreformation.com

This message is day 15 of a 5 week series on Anabaptist History. In this message the rough start of the Anabaptist in Holland is discussed. In particular the teaching of Melchior Hoffman and his influence on the Dutch reformation is introduced.

After discussing Hoffman other groups who "re- baptized" adults and therefore fell under the name "Anabaptist" are also discussed. In particular the terrible tragedy of the "Kingdom of Zion at Munster" is given in detail.

Lessons are drawn from these extreme views, and an encouragement is given to make the Word of God our source of truth.
