Müntzer and the Zwickau prophets…claimed that the Holy Spirit spoke to them with direct and infallible revelation. The message they received from the Spirit trumped not only the church but the Bible itself.
Sounds like Muntzer and those that came after confused the real relationship between Spirit and Bible. They cooperate. They don't compete. The Spirit inspired the Bible authors. He teaches us the Bible today. To be filled with the Spirit, according to Paul, was equal to having the Word of Christ richly dwell within you. The Bible instructs us to live by or walk by the Spirit, to bear the fruit of the Spirit.
There were even crazier Anabaptists in Germany at the time too. Listen to Hardcore History's "Prophets Of Doom" episode to listen to a tale of "bullet-proof" post-millennial anarchists.
