On the question of assurance of salvation however, they may vary from other Christians. While beliving it is possible... they may not say so, and rather express a "hope" for such. In some circles of Mennonite and Amish faith it is seen as arrogant to ploclaim one is "saved".

I was Old Order Mennonite.

Thanks for your response. That's actually a little different answer than I was expecting, but I had no previous knowledge. I just assumed they would place importance on their traditions in their doctrine of salvation.
