Warner Tute (16th century)
Warner Tute, a Dutch Anabaptist, baptized ca. 1535 at Deventer by Hendrick Kistemecker of Zutphen, and beheaded at Kampen, is a typical example of early Dutch Anabaptist chiliasm (apocalypticism), declaring that one Johan had told him "there would be an assembling [of the elect Anabaptists], at a place unknown to him [Warner] but provided by God, and then the trumpets from heaven would blow and at this moment everyone should be prepared." He obviously belonged to the revolutionary wing of Anabaptists.
