Quaker

Quak er |ˈkwākər ˈkweɪkər | ▶noun a member of the Religious Society of Friends, a Christian movement founded by George Fox c. 1650 and devoted to peaceful principles. Central to the Quakers' belief is the doctrine of the “Inner Light, ” or sense of Christ's direct working in the soul. This has led them to reject both formal ministry and all set forms of worship. DERIVATIVES Quak er ish adjective, Quak er ism |-izəm |noun ORIGIN from quake + -er 1, perhaps alluding to George Fox's direction to his followers to “tremble at the name of the Lord, ” or from fits supposedly experienced by worshipers when moved by the Spirit.
