This post is partly written by my friend and theological iron sharpener, William Higgins. He came up with 26 distinctives of the Swiss Anabaptists of the 16th century-- the pre- precursor to modern Mennonites. I will also add my own thoughts about Mennos and Anabaptists, but Williams will be numbered.

Being Loved By The Text
To be Anabaptist is to be textual. It is allowing the text of the gospels to form one, to change one permanently.
It is seeing Jesus in the text, and fleshing that Jesus out in the life we have around us.
