The thing Anabaptists were most known for was rebaptizing people. Most people of the era had been baptized as infants. Anabaptists taught that the decision to become a follower of Jesus was decision that only the person could make. When that decision was made, he or she is baptized again.

∙ 9y agoThe Ana-baptists were founded out of the 16th Century Protestant Reformation. Their primary belief focused on their problem with infant baptism practice in the Catholic Church. They believed that you had to be a believing adult to be baptized and be saved. The Ana-baptists further believed more like Protestants of today in that they believed in separation of Church and State. The Protestant Reformers of the 16th Century were believers in a State sanctioned religion, they just wanted the Government to sanction their religion.
Ana-baptists were killed by the thousands in the early years but they were probably killed more by the Protestants than by Catholics.
