Have you guys heard of the group called the Anabaptist who stood for the truth and were a bright light in the Dark Ages even before the Reformation?
I have never heard of such a group existing prior to the Reformation.
Nor had I Phid; quick check on Wiki (sorry, not very academic sometimes... but a good start, often) indicates late MA had several groups that could be called Anabaptists. Among theose mentioned the Brethern of Common Life, the Waldesians and the Hussites. Too close to supper to dig anymore on this one but a starting point for anyone interested.wally
Then there were the Moravians led by Count Zizendorf which was a possible offshoot of the Anabaptists….not sure, I'll have to verify that (and I should know this darn it!)

Hi Don,I think your right but Zizendorf comes in later (around 1720); they start with Hus (sort of a pre-Luther) in the late 14th according to my source.Wally

Yes he was pre-Great Awakening. Sorry, I actually knew that (I mention him in my Master's thesis). Big goof on my part.
