On October 6 1536 in the town of vilvorde Netherland, William Tyndale, god first translator of the New testament into English, was brought to a place of execution, tied to a stick stronghold by the hangman to a point of death, and then burned in fire for doing God's work. As he met the Lord, Tyndale cried with a loud voice, Lord open the king of England eyes'.
So powerful words Tyndale 's doctrine and the godliness of his life, that during the year and half of imprisonment, it's said that he converted the jailer and his daughter and several others of his household concerning his translation of the new testament because his enemies found so many fault in disagreeable ways and claimed it was full of heresy, William Tyndale wrote from prison to his friend, John frith. "I call God to record against the day we shall appear before the lord Jesus, that I never altered one syllable of God's word against my conscience, nor would I do so this day if all that is in the earth, weather it be honor pleasure or riches might be given to me.
Today nobody remember the sacrifice men paid for the gospel. We need to take our minds back and pray for a better future
