William Tyndale, the man who translated the Bible into English and was burnt alive at the ridiculous young age of 42 years old, for his efforts. (Google Foxe's book of Martyrs.)

Nearly 500 years ago, this week, William Tyndale, fondly called 'Father of the English Bible' was strangled and burned at the stake after being tried and convicted of heresy and reason for translating the Bible into English.

HIS OFFENSE!
He translated the Greek Bible into English.

That you have a Bible in a language you can read is largely due to his labours, and many of the very phrases you read in it retain the flavour of his understanding of the Greek and Hebrew.

A graduate of Oxford and Cambridge, Tyndale had a powerful desire to make the Bible available even to the common people in England, in order to correct the 'Biblical ignorance of the priests.' At one point Tyndale told a priest, "If God spares my life, are many years pass, I will cause a boy that driveth the plow, shall know more of the Scriptures than thou dost."

Today, 90% of the King James Version of the Holy Bible and 75% of the Revised Standard Version are from the translation made by Tyndale, a man to whom you owe more than you'll ever know.

A nice dream, but how was Tyndale to accomplish his task, when translating the Bible into English was ILLEGAL at the time?'

He went to London to ask Bishop Tunstall if he could be authorised to make an English translation of the Bible, but the Bishop would not grant his approval.

However, Tyndale would not let the disapproval of men stop him from carrying out what seemed so obviously God's will. With encouragement and support of some British merchants, he decided to go to Europe to complete his translation, then have it printed and smuggled back into England.

In 1524 Tyndale sailed for Germany. In Hamburg, he worked on the New Testament, and in Cologne, he found a printer who would print the work. However, news of Tyndale's activity came to an opponent of the Reformation who had the press raided.

Tyndale himself managed to escape with the pages already printed and made his way to the German city Worms where the New Testament was soon published.

Six thousand copies were printed and smuggled into England.

The Bishops did everything they could to eradicate the Bibles. Bishop Tunstall had copies ceremoniously burned at St. Paul's; the Archbishop of Canterbury bought up copies to destroy them. Tyndale used the money to print improved editions!

Tyndale continued hiding among the merchants in Antwerp and began translating the Old Testament while the King's agents searched all over England and Europe for him.

A copy of Tyndale's "The Obedience of a Christian Man" fell into the hands of Henry VIII, providing the king with the rationale to break the Church in England from the Roman Catholic Church in 1534.
In 1535, Tyndale was arrested and jailed in the castle of Vilvoorde (Filford) outside Brussels for over a year.

Tyndale’s work was denounced by authorities of the Roman Catholic Church and Tyndale himself was accused of heresy.

Tyndale, 42 was finally found by an Englishman who pretended to be his friend but then turned him over to the authorities. After a year and a half in prison, he was brought to trial for heresy -- FOR BELIEVING, among other things, IN THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS and that THE MERCY OFFERED IN THE GOSPEL WAS ENOUGH FOR SALVATION. In August 1536, he was condemned and was executed [burned alive at the stake] publicly on October 6, 1536, in a small town in Belgium.

As he burnt to death, Tyndale reportedly said "Lord, open the king of England's eyes."

WAS HIS PRAYER ANSWERED?

YES! The prayer was answered first in part when three years later, in 1539, Henry VIII required every parish church in England to make a copy of the English Bible available to its parishioners. Today, Tyndale's prayer is fully answered, not only are the King's eyes opened, but the Bible a universal instrument.

John 3:16 coming into life. The word of God is living and is sharper than a double edged sword.

St. Patrick: From Slave to Preacher

When Patrick was a teenager, he was kidnapped during a raid on Britain and taken to Ireland to serve as a slave. After six years in captivity, he escaped, made his way back home, and eventually was ordained into the priesthood.

Then God, in his ironic way, sent Patrick back into the land of his former captivity to proclaim the freedom of the Gospel.

The boy who had been a slave was used by Christ to bring his word of salvation and life to a people who had been living in the darkness of pagan unbelief.

In Patrick we see the Lord of life at work, as we see him at work in our own lives. The God who can take a slave who seemed destined for nothing but death, and use his life to bring wisdom and light and salvation to the lives of so many others—this same God can and does work in our own lives.

We may seem destitute of hope, but the hope of Christ is stronger than our weakness. As he was for Patrick, so he will be for us: our companion in suffering, our life in death, our resurrection in the grave, and the Lord who uses us in his own way to bring blessings into the lives of others.

The 7 "I Am" statements by Jesus Christ found throughout the Gospel of John.

1. “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst” (John 6:35). Jesus also reiterated this statement in John 6:41, 48, and 51.

2. “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life” (John 8:12).

3. “I am the door of the sheep. All who ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door. If anyone enters by me, he will be saved and will go in and out and find pasture” (John 10:7-9).

4. “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep…I am the good shepherd; and I know my sheep, and am known by My own.” (John 10:11, 14).

5. “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live” (John 11:25).

6. “ I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me” (John 14:6).

7. “I am the true vine and My Father is the vinedresser… I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing” (John 15:1-5).

How to Be a Doer of God’s Word (and Not Just a Reader or Hearer)

Let’s be honest: We’ve all had moments where we finish a powerful Bible study, feel inspired, and then… do nothing. James 1:22 warns that faith without action is like owning a car but never driving it—it might look nice, but it’s useless. So how do we shift from hearing God’s Word to living it? Let’s break it down with simple, real-life steps anyone can follow.

What Does It Mean to Be a Doer of the Word?
The Mirror Test: Why Reading Isn’t Enough
James 1:22-24 paints a funny picture: Imagine glancing in a mirror, noticing your hair looks like a bird’s nest, and walking away without fixing it. That’s what it’s like to read the Bible but ignore its instructions. Being a doer means letting God’s Word change your choices, not just your thoughts.

Jesus’ Simple Rule: “Follow My Lead”
Jesus didn’t say, “Memorize these verses.” He said, “Follow Me” (Matthew 4:19). Doing the Word means copying Jesus’ actions—loving the unlovable, serving others, and trusting God daily.

10 Practical Ways to Be a Doer of the Word
1. Start with One Verse
Example: Pick Matthew 5:14 (“You are the light of the world”). Ask: “How can I ‘shine’ today?” Maybe compliment a coworker or help a neighbor.

Tip: Post the verse on your fridge or phone wallpaper.

2. Turn Prayer into Action
Prayer: “God, show me who needs help today.”
Action: Buy groceries for a struggling friend. Drop off old blankets at an animal shelter.

Bible Backup: “Faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead” (James 2:17).

3. Practice the “WWJD” Rule
Before making decisions, ask: “What Would Jesus Do?”

At Work: Choose honesty over cutting corners.

Online: Post encouragement instead of criticism.

Modern Twist: WWJD bracelets are cheesy, but the principle still works.

4. Fix What’s Broken (Literally)
Bible Link: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world” (Romans 12:2).

Action: Repair torn clothes instead of trashing them.

Why It Matters: Fighting our “throwaway culture” honors God’s creation.

5. Love Your Enemies (Yes, Really)
Step 1: Pray for someone who annoys you.
Step 2: Text them a kind message.

Hard Truth: Jesus didn’t say “like your enemies”—He said “love them” (Matthew 5:44).

6. Use Your Gifts to Serve
Examples:

Cook meals for new parents.

Use tech skills to fix a friend’s laptop.

Babysit for free so a couple can have a date night.

Bible Boost: “Each of you should use whatever gift you have to serve others” (1 Peter 4:10).

7. Share What You Have
Simple Starts:

Donate unused clothes.

Tip generously, even for takeout.

Lend tools to a neighbor.

Key Verse: “If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother in need but has no pity, how can God’s love be in that person?” (1 John 3:17).

8. Forgive Quickly
Action: Let go of grudges. Say “I forgive you” out loud—even if the person never apologizes.

Why It Matters: Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to get sick.

9. Protect the Planet
Doable Ideas:

Switch to reusable water bottles.

Plant flowers for bees.

Recycle paper and plastic.

Bible Reason: “The earth is the Lord’s” (Psalm 24:1). We’re caretakers, not owners.

10. Join a Faith Community
Why It Helps: Trying to follow God alone is like hiking a mountain without a map.

Find: A church group or Bible study that focuses on action, not just talk.

5 Common Excuses (and How to Beat Them)
1. “I Don’t Have Time!”
Truth: You have time for what matters. Try:

Praying during your commute.

Reading one Bible verse while brushing your teeth.

2. “I’m Not Perfect!”
Hope: God uses flawed people. Moses stuttered. Peter lied. You can still make a difference.

3. “What If I Fail?”
Bible Promise: “The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him” (Psalm 37:23).

4. “I Don’t Know Where to Start!”
Try This: Pick one of the 10 steps above. Master it, then add another.

5. “No One Notices!”
God’s View: “Your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you” (Matthew 6:4).

Your 7-Day Challenge to Become a Doer
Day 1: Share a meal with someone lonely.
Day 2: Forgive a past hurt (write it down, then tear it up).
Day 3: Donate items you no longer use.
Day 4: Complplain less; thank God more.
Day 5: Help a neighbor (mow their lawn, walk their dog).
Day 6: Read James 1:22-25 and act on one instruction.
Day 7: Tell someone how God’s changed your life.

Final Thought: Faith is a Verb
Being a doer of God’s Word isn’t about grand gestures—it’s about small, daily choices that mirror Jesus’ love. You won’t always get it right, but every effort matters. Start today. Pick one step. And remember: God isn’t keeping score; He’s cheering you on.

Now, go shine that light!
