The Munster party adopted the new view in 1534, and announced it in their " Restitution " as one of the articles of faith, which " God had restored by them, without any human wisdom ... So that those who have not yet attained to a better understanding, can- not be fundamentally founded on a living faith in Christ. " ^B. R. N. , X, 147- ^1 Schyn, Uitv. Verh. , 395. THEOLOGY OF DUTCH ANABAPTISTS 171 And among their restored articles of faith they mention " that Christ did not receive his flesh an...d blood from the Virgin Mary. " Nicolai, in his Inlasschingen, makes it the second point, inferior only to adult baptism, of the six characteristics of the Anabaptists.^^ But Menno's wavering position aroused a storm of protests on all sides. He who, in 1544, had said in his " Small Confession- book " (Belydingsboecksken), '* Thus Jesus Christ re- mains the noble, pure, and blessed (ghebenedyde) fruit of the body of Mary, " was accused in 1556, by Martin Micron, ^^ to have compared the flesh of Mary to a " stinking elderbush, " a prickly thornbush, from which such glorious fruit could not be gathered.
