As I understand it, many Anabaptist sects were founded along similar lines. Heck, even Luther's theology conceived of the concept of a priesthood of all believers.
Yeah, Luther loved the church, he just wanted to point out their mistakes, hoping they would accepted them and change, sadly it didn't turn out that way......The Anabaptist sects were quite different, they didn't stem from the reformation, as far as I remember....Their big point was that a baby need not be sprinkled at birth for their soul, but that one should make a decisions when older and knowing what they were doing....Their big thing was baptism, though they did branch off to the 7th day Baptists also, meaning that that meet on Saturday (The Sabbath) instead of Sunday, which was installed by the Roman Church...The date was changed at a council to Sunday.
