I know at least several people can read this, so I thought I'd mention that I found the original text of Schleitheim online:

Is it biblical? Is it Christlike? Is it loving? Is it true? How can I find out?

Cool.
The page at Bible Views that Sudsy linked to in his thread is J. C. Wenger's 1945 translation. J. H. Yoder's 1977 translation is at Anabaptistwiki and has quite a few footnotes useful in comparing the translations to each other and to the original.

Reading through the 'Congregational Order' I don't know about other Mennonite churches but ours especially violate number 6. I wonder why some orders reference brothers and sisters and some brothers only. Numbers 4, 6 and 7 reference brothers only. Where these items ones that excluded the women ?
6. All gluttony shall be avoided among the brothers who are gathered in the congregation; serve a soup or a minimum of vegetable and meat, for eating and drinking are not the kingdom of heaven

Sudsy, are you sure that is a quote from Schleitheim?
Can we use this thread to identify where you can find Schleitheim in the original, translations, and comparisons among translations?

Re: Schleitheim - original text
Yes, the page indicates it is text from a separate confession that may have been circulated together with Schleitheim. Might be worth discussing in a separate thread.Sudsy wrote:I took it from the link ohio jones showed Anabaptistwiki.
