Back in the day when I red the Bible I became a convinced atheist. Almost as if a person needs to read Scripture through a correct paradigm to come to a correct interpretation. I wonder what that paradigm is? Could it perhaps be the institution established by the One that speaks through the text? Nah, that's a man-made tradition. Just read it in your closet and you'll definitely get everything right on your own. Your interpretation will most likely align with what at least one of the 10000 different sects teaches out there.
Assuming any of them is the true Church (spoiler alert: it is not because history) 10000 to 1 for being correct is not that bad I guess.
Mennonites are Christians with a sound knowledge of the gospel, and a strong tradition of studying the Bible. They encourage everyone in their community to study scripture and pray.
If you look at their fruits, it's what you'd (well what I'd) expect. Strong communities with good family values. A proper understanding of the gospel is key, but you know what it comes down to more than anything? NOT ADDING TO IT. It's surprising how uncommon it is.
Look at all the cults that claim the name of Jesus (Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses, etc) and what do they all do? They add new traditions, books, practices, prophets, requirements to scripture. Mennonites (and other faithful protestants) come to the same conclusion of the gospel message using scripture. No extra-biblical "revelations" needed.

SPELL (as in go-spel) implies the articulation of natural sound. Spelling implies the distortion of sound knowledge.
A contradiction in terms...every implies all; one implies each.
Another contradiction in terms...com (together) uni (apart from one another).
And yet suggested words are added to perceivable sound...
