“And when he cometh home, he calleth together his friends and neighbours, saying unto them, Rejoice with me; for I have found my sheep which was lost. I say unto you, that likewise joy shall be in heaven over one sinner that repenteth, more than over ninety and nine just persons, which need no repentance.”

Unthinkable!
Can you imagine being violently strangled and burned at the stake simply because you wanted ordinary people to be able to read the Bible?
In the 16th century, the Scriptures were locked away in Latin, completely unreadable to the common man.
William Tyndale had a radical, dangerous belief:
He believed that a simple, uneducated plowboy deserved to read the Word of God just as much as a wealthy priest.
So, he made the ultimate sacrifice and began translating the Bible into English.
For this simple act of translation, Tyndale became a wanted man.
He was relentlessly hunted down, falsely accused of being a dangerous heretic, and locked away in a freezing, miserable dungeon.
On October 6, 1536, the authorities finally dragged him out to the execution grounds.
They gave him one final opportunity to recant his work, deny his translation, and save his own life.
Tyndale absolutely refused.
They bound him tightly to a heavy wooden stake.
But right before the executioner strangled him and lit the blazing fire to consume his body...
Tyndale didn't panic or scream in terror.
Instead, he lifted his head and cried out with a loud, piercing voice:
"Lord, open the King of England's eyes!"
He was strangled, and his physical body was burned to ashes.
But his dying prayer shook heaven!
Just four years after his horrific execution, the impossible happened.
That exact same King of England miraculously changed his mind.
He officially authorized the publishing of several English translations of the Bible...
And they were based almost entirely on Tyndale’s own work!
The furious authorities managed to burn the man, but they could never burn his legacy.
Today, the English Bible you hold in your hands owes its existence to the unshakeable faith of William Tyndale!

Matthew 16
1 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.
5 And when his disciples were come to the other side, they had forgotten to take bread.
6 Then Jesus said unto them, Take heed and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
7 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, It is because we have taken no bread.
8 Which when Jesus perceived, he said unto them, O ye of little faith, why reason ye among yourselves, because ye have brought no bread?
9 Do ye not yet understand, neither remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
10 Neither the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets ye took up?
11 How is it that ye do not understand that I spake it not to you concerning bread, that ye should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?
12 Then understood they how that he bade them not beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees.
13 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18 And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.
21 From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.
22 Then Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall not be unto thee.
23 But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto me: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.
24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
25 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it.
26 For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
