A BRIEF

Complaint or Apology

OF THE

DESPISED CHRISTIANS

AND

EXILED STRANGERS,

TO ALL THE THEOLOGIANS AND PREACHERS OF THE GERMAN NATIONS, CONCERNING THE BITTER FALSEHOODS, SLANDERS, AND ABUSES WITH WHICH THEY, WITHOUT TRUTH, BURDEN THESE SUFFERING CHRISTIANS AND EXILES, TOGETHER WITH A FRIENDLY REQUEST TO HAVE A FREE DISCUSSION OF THE SCRIPTURES, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RULES OF CHRISTIAN LOVE.

BY

MENNO SIMON.

teach, patient," 2 Timothy 2: 24.

⁠"For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ,"
