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.

It is impossible to preach Christ, except thou preach against antichrist.

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
Image
Christ made the bread the sacrament of his body only: wherefore as the bread is no similitude of his blood, so am I not bound or ought to affirm, that his blood is there present.

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.

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
Image
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.
William Tyndale
Image
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
Image
All that I do and suffer is but the way to the reward, and not the deserving thereof.
William Tyndale
Image
The Scriptures sprang out of God.
William Tyndale
Image
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.

The Church is the one institution that exists for those outside it.

No more doth it hurt to say that the body and blood are not in the sacrament.

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
Image
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.

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.
