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.

More quotes by William Tyndale
For we love not God first, to compel him to love again but he loved us first, and gave his Son for us, that we might see love and love again, saith St John in his first epistle.
William Tyndale
No more doth it hurt to say that the body and blood are not in the sacrament.
William Tyndale
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
I call God to record against the day we shall appear before our Lord Jesus, that I never altered one syllable of God's Word against my conscience, nor would do this day, if all that is in earth, whether it be honor, pleasure, or riches, might be given me.
William Tyndale
Do you know who taught the eagles to find their prey? Well, that same God teaches His hungry children to find their Father in His Word.
William Tyndale
To have a faith, therefore, or a trust in anything, where God hath not promised, is plain idolatry, and a worshipping of thine own imagination instead of God.
William Tyndale
Neither was there any heresy, or diversity of opinion, or disputing about the matter, till the pope had gathered a council to confirm this transubstantiation: wherefore it is most likely that this opinion came up by them of latter days.
William Tyndale
All that I do and suffer is but the way to the reward, and not the deserving thereof.
William Tyndale
I know divers, and divers men know me, which love me as I do them: yet if I should pray them, when I meet them in the street openly, they would abhor me but if I pray them where they be appointed to meet me secretly, they will hear me and accept my request.
William Tyndale
they go and set up free-will with the heathen philosophers and say that a man's free will is the cause why God chooseth and not another, contrary to all scriptures.
William Tyndale
And as the circumcised in the flesh, and not in the heart, have no part in God's good promises even so they that be baptized in the flesh, and not in heart, have no part in Christ's blood.
William Tyndale
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
For if God be on our side, what matter maketh it who be against us, be they bishops, cardinals, popes, or whatsoever names they will?
William Tyndale
Let every man of whatsoever craft or occupation he be of... serve his brethren.
William Tyndale
My overcoat is worn out my shirts also are worn out. And I ask to be allowed to have a lamp in the evening it is indeed wearisome sitting alone in the dark.
William Tyndale
Here is also to be noted, that the cause of the institution was to be a memorial, to testify that Christ's body was given, and his blood shed for us.
William Tyndale
To see how Christ was prophesied and described therein, consider and mark, how that the kid or lamb must be with out spot or blemish and so was Christ only of all mankind, in the sight of God and of his law.
William Tyndale
There is no work better than another to please God: to pour water, to wash dishes, to be a souter [cobbler], or an apostle, all is one to wash dishes and to preach is all one, as touching tho deed, to please God.
William Tyndale
Many things there be in the scripture, which have a carnal fulfilling, even there where they be spoken or done and yet have another spiritual signification, to be fulfilled long after in Christ and his kingdom, and yet never known till the thing be done.
William Tyndale
Be cold, sober, wise, circumspect. Keep yourself low by the ground avoiding high questions. Expound the Law truly and open the veil of Moses to condemn all flesh and prove all men sinners, and set at broach the mercy of our Lord Jesus, and let wounded consciences drink of Him.
William Tyndale
