Noahide Baptists

 Share 

Noahide Baptists aka Wikinoah Baptists or Noahide Alawites are 7th day Anabaptist Noahides historically known as Σοβιαΐ or Tsabis by the Abbasids, Paulicians by the Byzantines and Cathars by the Latins later as Picards and Taborites. They are related to the Manicheans who called them Tazigane (whence derives the Greek term Athiganoi). Like Manicheans, Noahide Baptists reject the Prince of the Air as the god of this Aeon but unlike Manicheans, Noahide Baptists still faithfully serve the Name of the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob by keeping the rainbow covenant of peace as well as that part of the Sinai covenant which makes Hagerim out of the Erevrav.

Although modern Baptists have their origin in Anabaptism, most people calling themselves Baptists today are actually converts to Calvinism only deluding themselves that they are Baptists when in fact they are nothing but Calvinists. Nevertheless, Noahide Baptists act as counter missionaries protecting Perushim like Neturei Karta from conversion and denounce Messianic Hebrews who call themselves Jews when they are not.

Belief

Noahide Baptists are not guilty of Shittuf because they believe in the Logos Christology of Celestial Flesh (unlike Dyophysites who are guilty of Shittuf for believing in the deification of part of Mary's body through its union with Hashem's essence).

Practice

Havdalah is normally held on Sunday Mornings following a full Sabbath Day's rest on Saturdays during which Noahide Baptists will avoid Tumah.

In these respects, Noahide Baptist practice has not changed from the time of Hamlet Jackson who promoted the practices of Elizabethan Anabaptists known as the 7th Day Men.

Lineage

Noahide Baptist lineage can be traced back through 7th day Anabaptist Successionism all the way to the Ebionite "Sampsaean" community of Godfearers initiated by John the Baptist and descended from the first Messianic Noahite Magi. The Noahide Magi were Persians who had been introduced to the Sinai covenant for Erevrav by Daniel.

Noahide Baptists were the Sobiai (Σοβιαΐ) preached to by Elxai from whose community Mani emerged. They accepted only the 325CE version of the Nicene creed and Bible but separated immediately thereafter as the Donatists denouncing Constantine and have always been regarded as Hanpa by mainstream Constantinian Churches ever since.

Islamic and Alevi sources show that the early Alian Imams of the 610sCE were the same "Tsabi" Sobiai. In the 640s the Ahsana Al-Hadith were compiled into an epic performance intended to instruct the Messianic Noahide Deaconate of Baptists on everything they needed to know in order to serve as instructors to the believers. Sebeos called their country Tachkastan from the same root word that their Manichean relatives also called them, Tazigane, and under which name they escaped the Umayyads and migrated from Azerbaijani "Khazaria" into the Bulgar lands where they were known as the Paulicians. From them, the Central European Albigensians Arnoldists and Waldensian Lollards emerged as precursors to the Bohemian Anabaptists and 7th-Day Men like Hamlet Jackson continuing through Mill Yard's 7th Day "Arminian" (Ana)Baptists who under Stephen Mumford began to establish churches in America from 1664 and eventually from which Rachel (Harris) Oakes Preston (March 2, 1809 – February 1, 1868) inspired various Seventh Day Churches.

History

The Isaurian dynasty first invited the Sobiai to settle in the Balkans from whence they spread to Bohemia through the Moimirids and under the Magyars eventually reached the Waldensian Mountains as the Cathars. The Bohemian Waldenses turned into the Hussites from whom derived the Noahides of Zacharia and subsequent 7th day Anabaptists who influenced not only the Szombatoszok but also the Moldavian Messianic Hebrews and the Bezpopovtsi as well as the Armenian Karaylar Molokanes from whom the Karaimite Subbotniki emerged.

Noahide Baptist Chronology

Σεβεια & Σεβόμαι 1stC.

God-worshippers also known as Godfearers but biblically as Hagerim and Toshavim played a major role in 1st century Jewish life funding the establishment of many Synagogues. With the destruction of the temple in 70CE and exile of Jews from Jerusalem in 135CE they lost their status in Judaism and many became Messianic Noahides as a result.

The Messianic Noahides were given their Bible by the Sanhedrin in 86CE consisting of the Septuagint, the books of Maccabees and the 27 NT texts.

Σοβιαΐ (Sampsaeans)

Ebionite Gnostics

Elhasai

Magarites

Cathars

Cathari are first mentioned in 325 where they are to be welcomed into the Church if they promise that they are willing to communicate with the twice-married, and grant pardon to those who have lapsed.

Gálycian Tsabis (صابئين) 6th-7thC

The Varchonite Gálycians descend from Ernakh's half-Greek son Csaba the Hun and his Corosani (烏孫) wife. Being Half-Greek at that time indicates that his mother was probably Messianic. In 549CE their three sons, the original Gálycian ancestors of the Varchonites, Polovtsi and Bosniaks migrated from Squtaye to rule the Székely Kotrags of Moldvavia at this time.

1. Pata/Kazarig/Kiy/Rus settled among the Kotrag Barsils of Donbas who became known as the Khazars. Khan Tuvan Dygvi's Biseni Kabars, Askold & Dir were his descendants.
2. Edumen/Avarios/Shchek/Czech leads his Varchonites (Valch) to Pannonia. His descendants was Alciocus.
3. Ed/Vulgarios/Khoryv/Lekh is granted rule by Emperor Maurice over the Kotrags of Dacia in 582 but the lineage of Avarios asserted itself over the Wild Field Polovtsi of Vulgarios which was restricted to Transnistria. From Vulgarios descended Zabergan who became a Byzantine General and defended the Chlomaron Fortress against the Romans in 586.

7th century Sabians were Heavily influenced by Eliezer Ben Kallir.

Hanzala alKhalifa alKalbi sent his son the Severian Paul (Dihya ibn AlKhalifa) to Emperor Heraclius in the course of the war against Khosrau II (which he began about 619). They met in Theodosiopolis (Erzeroum) in Armenia (about 622). The Severian Monophysite Paul (the One Eyed), representing the Acephali, made a speech before him in favour of Monoenergism which Heraclius adopted as the foundation for his alliance.

Paulician Alevis

Paulicians are Severian Acephali named after Paul the One Eyed their 622 representative to Heraclius.

Hani ibn Qabisa

Solomon the Pharisee

Organa and his nephew, the Onogundur lord Koubrat, a descendant of Vulgarios, are Baptised as Monoenergist Paulician by Patriarch Sergiis I of Constantinople.

626 Byzantium repels a Varchonite siege by Alciocus.

631 Samo's army overthrows Old Great Vulgaria's Alciocus of Edumen so Koubrat of Ed becomes the new Varchonite Khagan of Old Great Vulgaria (Dacia/Bracta) promoting Paulician Monoenergism among the Gálycians until his death in 668.

Alid Tazigan

Alawais

Alevis

Alians

The Khozroi of Shahrbanu (Jahānshāh) were settled among the Azeri miaphysites (Alevis) of Transcaucasian Albania.

When Patrician Koubrat died in 668, the next Patrician, Baian, followed Byzantine practice and dropped Paulician Monoenergism causing his brothers to abandoned him.

Baian's brother Kotrag fled beyond his Pata/Kazarig uncles in Donbas who subsequently forced his brothers to pay tribute sending his brother Tetartos-Marot from Gálycia as their representative across the Danube (Tisza) to subdue Vlachta (Bracta). Kotrag's brother Kuber Asparukh in Syrmia fled south from Khazarian vassalage to fight against the Byzantines and establish his own Empire in Moesia/Ongal (Valachia) while Constantine IV is under siege by Muawiya (d.680).

Another brother called Alzeco in Pannonia fled to Ravenna. Thus all of the Pannonian steppe fell to the Late Varchoníte Hring's Gálycians of Tetartos-Marot who had taken over Srbobran near Celarevo.

Gálycian Cathars and Bosniaks

.

Khazars begin to be very important during the reign of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian II who wed Kotrag's daughter, the Khazar Khagan Busir's sister baptised as Theodora with whom he became father to the half-Khazar Emperor Tiberius IV.

Koubrat's Paulician Monoenergist descendants also found friends in the Isaurian dynasty. Leo the Isaurian (717-741) learned a lot from the Paulician Monoenergists (for example that the Quran was authored by an Emir by a Pharisee and by Abuturab) and protected them from Patriarch Germanus (715-730). He gave his son Constantine V in marriage to the Khazar Princess Tzitzak daughter of Bihar (and possibly the sister of Bulan).

Al-Kuzari mentions that the Edumen-Ishmaelite (Messianic Noahides) conversion of the Gálycian EunoDuBilian (Huns of Bulan who emerge in the 8th century) also took place at this time.

745 John of Damascus mentions Cathari.

747, Emperor Constantine V and his Khazar Empress moved a significant number of Paulician asylum seekers from Eastern Anatolia to Thrace where they boost the Monoenergist faith of Byzantium's Vulgarian neighbours in Moesia. Pavlikeni is named after them.

By the end of the 8th century, the Polovtsi-Varchonites of Chelarevo were practicing Cathar Noahide Judaism guided by Isaac Sangari and the Cathar Khagans of Moldavia's Huns of Bulan.

796 Franks conquer the Varchonite Hring in Srbobran and appoint Abraham as their puppet while the Cathar Khagan Isaac's administration retreats to Moldavia (Atelcusu).

803 Krum, a Polovtsi-Varchonite refugee from Pannonia, has become Emperor of Bulgaria. He goes to war against the Frankish clients who now control the Varchonite Hring in Srbobran. He is victorious and is anointed as liberator of all Romania by the Cathar Khagan Isaac.

827 the Rus Khaganate is established by Donbas Edumen's Khan Tuvan Dygvi's Kabars who have quit Khazaria.

827-874 the Franks send prince Pribina and his son Kotzel to promote Roman Catholicism from Nitra to Lower Pannonia.

861 In response to the Frankish mission, Constantinople sends Cyril and Methodius to convert Pannonia to the Byzantine Church instead.

862 Rurik.

864 Emperor Boris I of Bulgaria and Romania is the first Slavonic Byzantine Christian of Krum's Polovtsi-Varchonite dynasty. He declares his empire Christian.

870 the Paulician Knyaz Boris I of the Bulgarios Kotrags brokers full communion between the Bulgarian Church and the Byzantine Church but thereby alienates his Polovtsi-Varchonite army in Valachia who with the Cathar Khagans based in Moldavia (Yasi) likewise appose any alliance with Constantinople and gradually fall away from the Bulgaria.

881 Oleg the Wise of Kiev is friends with the 7 Kun Princes of Gálycia (Etelkoza).

884 The Kotrags of Almis and other Hetumoger defeat the Kievan Rus and establish an alliance with Ed's Cathars in Etelkoz (Greater Gálycia). The sole heir to Ed's Arpad / Hrvat / Carpat / Chrobat dynasty of Gálycia is given as hostage to childless Almis at Gálych in 884.

894 Magyars liberate the Cathar peoples of Ungvar from Laborec.

895 Byzantium has bribed the Magyars staying in Etelkoz to attack the Bulgarians.

896 For working with constantinople, the Magyars are chased from Cathar Atelcusu by the ex Khazarian Bosniaks with Bulgarian support at the battle of the Bug river. The Magyars conquer the Szekeleys and having taken Transylvania go on to conquer the Cathar peoples in Crisana ruled by the Paulician hearted BenuMarot. But Cathar ideas will survive in Moravia and among the Hungarians while Valachia and Moldavia will also be a source of Cathar influence on Europe for the next 4 centuries.

927-969 Romanos condemns the Bulgarian Church for tolerating Heterodoxy.

965 Sviatoslav I conquers Khazaria.

968 Ex-Khazarian Bosniaks of Atelcusu lay siege to Kiev. The Bosniaks settle down with the Polovtsi-Varchonites of Romania.

970, the Byzantine emperor John I Tzimiskes of the Macedonian dynasty strengthens the Balkan Cathars by transplanting 200,000 more Armenian Paulicians to Europe and settled them in the neighbourhood of Philippopolis (today's Plovdiv, Bulgaria).

1041 the Polovtsi-Varchonite-Bosniak Prince Samuel Aba 990-1044 becomes the people-first leader of Hungary.

1057-1075 Cathar Patarenes reach Milan.

1075 Cathar Bosniak Church

1119-1312 Mohammedan Christian Templars

1143 Catharism can be clearly identified in Cologne.

1180s John Kinnamos describes the the Gálycians as practising Mosaic law and other sources call them Meshulam.

Cathar Boghards

Cathar Waldenses

Cathar Lollards in the Netherlands at the beginning of the 14th century who were akin to the Fraticelli, Beghards, and other sectaries similar to the recusant Franciscans.

.

Bohemian Brethren 1310

The Dominican Bernard Gui, Inquisitor of Toulouse from 1308 to 1323, published a manual detailing how to dispose of Cathars.

In Bohemia, as much as one quarter of the population kept seventh-day the sabbath in 1310.

By 1350, all known remnants of the movement had been extinguished in Octania. Many Occitan courts had been patrons of the troubadours, and their destruction resulted in the gradual deterioration of troubadour practice and the immigration of most troubadours from Southern France to royal courts in Italy, Spain and Hungary.

The Bohemian reformation was also inspired by the ideas of Conrad Waldhauser d.1369 and Johann Milíč of Kroměříž d.1374 as well as the Lollard theologian and philosopher John Wycliffe 1328-1384.

Matthew of Kraków 1335-1410

Matthias de Janow 1350–1394

Jan Hus 1370–1415

The Hussites Bible was written in Hungarian.

Petr Chelčický 1390-1460

1420s-1430s The Hussite Bible is written in Hungarian.

Zakharia 1470-1491

Two priests, Dionysius and Alexis, convinced by Zacharias, and four Jews who had recently come from the South, spread the news of this doctrine broad, and arch-priest Gabriel was among the many who were converted. In 1491, Skhariya the Jew was executed in Novgorod by the order of Ivan III. In 1504, diak (secretary) Ivan-Volk Kuritsyn, Dmitry Konoplev and Ivan Maksimov were burnt at the stake. Other adherents were banished, imprisoned, or excommunicated. Feodor Kuritsyn's adherents' club ceased to exist.

7th Day Anabaptists

Swiss Brethren 1525

Wilhelm Reublin 1484-1559

Jacob Hutter 1500-1536

Oswald Glaidt

Andreas Fischer

Seventh Day Men 1600

Hamlet Jackson 1614

Hamlet established the Mill Yard Seventh Day Anabaptist Church in 1617 which converted Theophilus Brabourne by 1628 and Henry Jesse by 1645. In 1650, Brabourne's pupil, James Ockford, published in London the book The Doctrine of the Fourth Commandment, Deformed by Popery, Reformed & Restored to its Primitive Purity. The work convinced a Baptist called Peter Chamberlen who led the first Baptist service at Millyard Church in 1651.

Stephen Mumford 1664

Stephen fled to the Americas establishing the Seventh Day Anabaptist Church in Newport which converted John Rogers & James Rogers Jr. in 1674.

Many Shabbatis fled the Ottomam Empire at this time due to the imprisonment of the Shabbati teacher Tsvi Ben Mordechai in 1666.

John Wesley 1735-1739

John Wesley was an Anglican convert to Moravian Anabaptism in 1735 which he left to establish Methodism in late 1739 having decided that Moraviams were guilty of a heresy in what he called "quietism". Nevertheless, he continued top promote self-discipline as an essential element in self-reformation.

Rachel Harris 1809-1868

in 1844, Rachel Harris Oaks Preston, a Wesleyan 7th day Anabaptists was responsible for inadvertently kickstarting the Church of God 7th day and the Whiteist movements when she converted a Millerite Methodist minister Frederick Wheeler to Seventh Day Sabbatarianism.

Wikinoah Baptists

Finally, from the same background Elder-deacons Vendyl Jones and Jay David Davis established an Hebrew Roots Anabaptist movement in 2003.

The Wikinoah UNC, were of the Sabbatarian or 7th-Day General Baptist type preserving the honest and simple approach to scripture which is better known as Anabaptism in English whereby Calvin is identified as a Man of Lawlessness and rejected. Some of them were Rationalists.

The Wikinoah UNC Messianic Noahide organization began as a 7th Day Anabaptist sect independent from Christianity being neither Protestants nor Catholics nor Byzantines but who had devoted themselves to the study of Noahide Judaism. Professor Vendyl Jones's' 'Noahide Umot' Church already had a tax exempt status ruling in 07/2003 and changed its name to High Council of Bnei NoaH in 2005 under ten Deacons, including Vendyl himself as well as Jack Saunders, Billy Jack Dial, James D. Long, Bud Gill, Larry Borntrager, Roger Grattan, Jacob Scharff, Andrew Overall and Adam Penrod.

However, concern over Rambamism and involvement with Kahanists (a designated terrorist group in Israel) among certain members of the Nascent Sanhedrin Project (which the High Council of Bnei NoaH was responsible to) as well as website issues led to the disintegration of the High Council of Bnei NoaH by September 2006 and the subsequent establishment of the independent Wikinoah UNC inc. by those who remained faithful to Vendyl's original 'Noahide Umot' mission as the latest in a long line of Anabaptist Succession.

Professor Vendyl Jones, Deacon Billy Jack Dial, Deacon Larry Borntrager and Deacon Jack Saunders were some of the people chosen to sit on the nascent Sanhedrin's original "High Council" who became official advisers to the Wikinoah UNC alongside Deacon Jay David Davis, Rev Kazik Libey[1] and Ben Abrahamson.
