	Church of God in Christ, Mennonite
		Among contemporary Mennonites we are often referred to as Holdeman Mennonites due to the leadership of the evangelist-reformer John Holdeman.
		It is man's blessing to have the inward assurance of peace with God and knowledge of sins forgiven on condition of faithful obedience by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9; Romans 3:20-26; John 1:12-13; John 3:16; Acts 2:38; Titus 3:5; James 2:14-26; Matthew 24:13; Romans 2:7).

	Anabaptist Theology
		Christ is the second person of the Trinity, the Son of God, fully man and fully God, who redeemed mankind by his death -- that is, by opening a new way to fight the powers of Satan, and also by opening God's immeasurable grace to all who will follow him in true sonship.
		The Anabaptist church was once well-called the "fellowship of committed disciples," and the Lord's Supper among them is the external symbol of this fellowship (occasionally called the "fellowship at the Lord's Table").
		At the same time this church is a disciplined church, a church which insists on supervision by the bishop or Vorsteher, and naturally insists on the ban.

	Comment: Which Church of God?
		The Church of God in Alymer is a part of a 1910 split from the Church of God (Anderson).

		One of the key figures in the Alymer controversy is Henry Hildebrandt, the pastor of the Alymer Church of God.

		Members are taught that anyone who is excommunicated from their church is lost 25and can never be reconciled to God unless he or she repents and reunites with their church, no matter how many years he lives his Christian life in another church.

		IS UNTIED IN THE EFFORT OF vision for fellowship in the faithful teachings of the Apostle's Doctrines and the foundation of the church as established by Jesus Christ and His apostles in all the ways of practice in the faith and principles.
		The faith of the the church is deeply rooted in the heritage of Apostle William Seymour and the Azusa Street Mission in the turn of the twentieth century.
		When the church drifts away from the faithful practice of the Apostle's Doctrine, the burden falls upon the faithful to revive that 'faith.' In the years given to us, we must give ourselves to that burden of revival in the Church.

	Conference 8, 1896
		We confess that baptism is an ordinance commanded of God, that all converted, newborn, justified sinners are to be baptized in water in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
		We believe that the Church of God is the supreme judge which God has here on earth for gospel matters; therefore, all elders, ministers, and lay members who at any time conceive anything different from the Church should place this before the Church of God that it may be proved before they labor therewith.
		We believe in excommunicating offending members for threefold reasons; namely, the first is to retain the Church in its purity; the second is to so reprove the transgressor that he may be ashamed; thirdly, that the Church may not be blasphemed by the world.

	Table Talk - Third Way Cafe - Mennonite Media
		Mostly, the Mennonite churches of my experience have been tolerant of only those who fit their cookie-cutter molds of dress, social standing, wealth, and overall Mennonite appearance.
		It seems to me that Mennonites could be differentiated by their religious beliefs and aspects that could be defined as cultural (I'm thinking of food, family background, etc.).
		This means that Mennonites have some similarities to the Jewish identity that is defined by those who are adhere to Jewish religious tradition, and those who do not: non-practicing Jews.
