More quotes by William Tyndale
The Church is the one institution that exists for those outside it.
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
Evangelion (that we call the gospel) is a Greek word and signifieth good, merry, glad and joyful tidings, that maketh a man's heart glad and maketh him sing, dance, and leap for joy.
William Tyndale
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
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
God's goodness is the root of all goodness and our goodness, if we have any, springs out of His goodness.
William Tyndale
It is impossible to preach Christ, except thou preach against antichrist.
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
We had better be without God's laws than the Pope's.” To which Tyndale passionately responded: “I defy the Pope, and all his laws and if God spares my life, ere many years, I will cause the boy that driveth the plow to know more of the Scriptures than thou dost!
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
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
Marriage was ordained for a remedy and to increase the world and for the man to help the woman and the woman the man, with all love and kindness.
William Tyndale
All that I do and suffer is but the way to the reward, and not the deserving thereof.
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
