The Secret of the Strength: What Would the First Anabaptists Tell This Generation?

The Secret of the kingdom of God has been
given to you,” Christ told his followers—and a few
fishermen, a tax collector, and a motley crowd of
Jerusalem “believers” set out to change the world.
They succeeded.
In sixteenth century Europe, the Anabaptists preaching
in cities by night, on back streets, and in wood corners
behind rail fences began to do the same. What was
their secret? In this book you may study what they
accomplished as long as they remembered it and what
they lost when they forgot it.
Was their secret a return to the Bible? No, they were
far more than Biblicists. Was it a return to the
apostolic way? No, they were far more than keepers of
tradition. Fundamentalism and traditionalism have
never held Christianity together nor made it work.
The “secret of the kingdom of God” is stunningly
simple. With two words Christ revealed it to his
friends, who—upon comprehending it—came to a
sudden knowledge of the will of God, of the whole
Bible, and of the right way to live.
The purpose of this book is to help many more to
comprehend the same.
