William Tyndale (Scriptures)

Christ desires his mysteries to be published abroad as widely as possible. I would that [the Gospels and the epistles of Paul] were translated into all languages, of all Christian people, and that they might be read and known.

William Tyndale (Biblical Scholar, 1494 – 1536)

William Tyndale (Truth)

I perceived how that it was impossible to establish the lay people in any truth except the Scripture were plainly laid before their eyes in their mother tongue.

William Tyndale (Biblical Scholar, 1494 – 1536)

William Tyndale (Layman)

We do not wish to abolish teaching and to make every man his own master, but if the curates will not teach the gospel, the layman must have the Scripture, and read it for himself, taking God for his teacher.

William Tyndale (Biblical Scholar, 1494 – 1536)

William Tyndale (Keys)

The Law and the Gospel are two keys. The Law is the key that shutteth up all men under condemnation, and the Gospel is the key which opens the door and lets them out.
