14h  · RCC and Islam Have Similar Ideas of Atonement in Quest to Extirpate “Infidels” In the years 1209-12, 1225, 1234, yea throughout the entire thirteenth century, crusades or so-called holy, voluntary preparations of war were preached, by order of the pope, for the extermination of the Waldenses and Albigenses, all over the world, but more particularly in the Kingdom of France. But that they might acquit themselves the more courageously and intrepidly, in exterminating the Albigenses, yhea, that they might suffer none of them to remain alive, but kill them by fire, sword, gallows, and other means, the pope most solemnly promised to all who by so doing should meet death, or fall by the weapons of the princes seeking to to protect the Albigenses and Waldenses, full remission of all their past sins, yea, that they should straightway go to heaven. (This is the same doctrine of atonement taught in Islam.)This had the effect, that countless multitudes flocked together, as it were, to honor of God, and for the extirpation of the so-called heresies, in order to obtain forgiveness of sins, and thus dying find salvation; and having, under certain chieftains, been formed into armies they marched forth and engaged in murdering, burning, desolating and tyrannizing among the Waldenses and Albigenses, sparing not even infant in a cradle. It is impossible to relate how great a multitude of these innocent people perished, and under what severe torments, simply on account of their true faith. Thielman J. Van Braght, Martyrs Mirror, P. 304 from Collegiate Baptist Workbook, p. 106 by James Beller Prairie Fire Press

“The Martyr’s Mirror” (1660), concerning the ancient edict against Anabaptists, writes “As those Christians greatly increased who valued only the baptism which is administered upon faith, and consequently rebaptized (as not having been baptized aright) those who had been baptized by unbelievers or in infancy, when they attained to the true faith, the Emperor Theodosius, A.D. 413, issued an edict, against the Anabaptists, commanding that they should be put to death.” (p.190) – Earnestly Contend For The Faith Jude 3 (awarningministry.com)
