“No, we don’t think we’re anybody special; no Reformer ever has been actually.”

Are we in the middle of a new Reformation?
I believe that we are.
Is this megalomania on our part? — ‘Who do you guys think you are?’
No, we don’t think we’re anybody special; no Reformer ever has been actually.

  1. If Dougie is remembered by history, he will be in the same categories as Arminius (a master of slippery speech) and Muntzer (with his Kirk-kingdom).

    1. They are the first two cult leaders I think of as well. Both veered from essential Christian doctrine at critical points despite identifying as Christian. Both called themselves prophets (though neither called himself a “seasoned prophet”). Both claimed visions (neither claimed “Federal Vision”). Both suffered from acute messiah complexes. Both created total closed communities. Both held total authority over everyone in those communities, etc. And both ended horribly.

      It’ll be interesting to see how this cult ends.
