John D. Martin. At the time of the Reformation, there was a clear line of demarcation between the Anabaptists and the mainline Reformers such as Luther and Calvin. Not only did their lifestyles differ, but so did their views of salvation, God, and the world. However, many Mennonites and Amish today have thrown out the teachings of their forefathers and have adopted Calvinistic views on salvation and other issues. In this message, John D. Martin issues a clarion call for Anabaptists to return to the teachings of the original Anabaptists—for they are also the teachings of Christ.
The “negative theology” referred to in this message is Reformed theology, and the “positive answer” is the Kingdom gospel of Christ, embraced not only by Anabaptists but by other groups of Christians as well. Martin demonstrates the nexus between the Kingdom gospel preached by the Anabaptists and the Kingdom gospel preached by the early Christians. Any person familiar with the theology of the Restoration Movement will also see the strong similarity in theology between the Anabaptists and the later Restorationists.
