Called By Christ To Be ONE: THE MAN WHO GAVE HIS LIFE FOR THE ENGLISH BIBLE

Heaven Is Our Destination Where We Will Be ONE With The Lord Forever

Today, we are in The Season Of The Last Generation. The Birth Pains that Christ Jesus spoke about are currently under way, including natural and unnatural disasters. They will be ever increasing. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. Social, economic and political turmoil will be ever increasing, causing people's hearts to be weighed down with dissipation, drunkenness and the anxieties of life. An apostasy within the Church of God is currently under way. This will all reach a climax with Satan revealing his Antichrist and requiring that everyone worship him; That every one receive his "mark" in order to buy or sell; The new currency of the New World Order, the New Tower of Babel.

Today, it is critical that those who have a heart for God are aware of what God is doing and speaking today. God is opening up His Word like never before in preparation for The Time Of The END. I exhort you to open up your heart and your eyes to see what He is doing and your ears to hear what God is speaking at this time. My prayer is that we will be able to stand before the Son of Man at His appearing, without fault and with great joy. I encourage you to read David Wilkerson's book, America's Last Call at davidwilkersontoday.blogspot.com. Also, Google, Tommy Hicks Prophecy, 1961 for a view of the End Times.

Tom's books include: Called By Christ To Be ONE, The Time Of The END, The Season Of The Last Generation, Worship God In Spirit And In Truth, Daniel And The Time Of The END, and Overcoming The Evil One. They are available at amazon.com. They can also be read without cost by clicking on link: Toms Books.

To receive Christ Jesus as a child by faith is the highest human achievement.

Today, the Bride Of Christ is rising up in every nation in the world! Giving Glory to Her Savior and King, Christ Jesus!

Today, the world is Raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion! Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation!

Today, America is being ground to powder because of it's SIN against God!

THE MAN WHO GAVE HIS LIFE FOR THE ENGLISH BIBLE

Foxe: Voices of the Martyrs opened to William Tyndale section

Tyndale’s Passion: The Bible in English

William Tyndale was born in late 15th-century England, about 90 years after the church had banned the only complete English Bible in the world, the translation made by John Wycliffe. Wycliffe maintained that being ignorant of the Scripture is the same as being ignorant of Christ. But his translation from the Latin Vulgate was ruled to be corrupt and heretical.

By the age of 30, Tyndale had embraced Wycliffe’s vision of a Bible so readable and accurate that an Englishman could depend on it, learn from it and find God’s voice in it. With the same dangerous passion as that shown by Wycliffe, he soon undertook a new English translation directly from the Greek and Hebrew texts.

Tyndale fled to Germany to begin his translation work, as no English bishop would dare provide protection or encouragement for such a project. After completing a translation of the New Testament in 1525, he moved on to Antwerp, Belgium, staying one step ahead of the English king’s bounty hunters.

But it was a friend who eventually betrayed Tyndale to authorities. In May 1535, he was arrested and held for 18 months before being tried for “maintaining that faith alone justifies … that to believe in the forgiveness of sins and to embrace the mercy offered in the gospel was enough for salvation.”

Two months after being condemned as a heretic, William Tyndale was led from his prison cell to the stake. As brush and logs were piled up around his feet, he was heard praying, “Lord, open the King of England’s eyes.” The executioner then gave the rope a quick tug, strangling Tyndale before his body was consumed by the blaze.

God answered Tyndale’s prayer. Two years after his death, King Henry VIII authorized the distribution of the Matthew Bible, largely composed of Tyndale’s work. Then, in 1539, the king ordered all printers and sellers of books to provide for the “free and liberal use of the Bible in our own maternal English tongue.”

Tyndale’s vision had become a reality.
