Spanheim Sr. wrote Varie disputationes anti-anabaptisticate (1643-48) and Diatribe Historica de Origine, Progressu et Sectis Anabaptistarum (Franeker, 1645; 2nd edition 1656), in which he maintained the old and false theory that the Dutch Mennonites were the descendants of the Münsterite Anabaptists. Spanheim Jr. in the second chapter of his book Controversiarum de Religione Elenchus historico-theological (Leiden 1687, reprinted 1694 and 1757) repeated the assertians of his father. His contentions were opposed by the Mennonites E. A. van Dooregeest in Briefaan den Heer F.
