Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the lives of important figures in Christianity, specifically those who defended key Christian beliefs against widespread opposition and corruption. The author begins by introducing the concept of the Reformation as not being confined to one period or one person but a continuous movement within Christianity combatting moral decay and abuse of power. The early portion focuses on John Wycliffe, the "Morning Star" of the Reformation in the 14th century who first argued for ordinary people to have the Bible in their own languages. The book then moves to the 15th-century teachings of John Huss and Jerome of Prague who argued for teachings based on the Bible and not just on Papal authority. The author places these subjects within the context of the larger Christian tradition and explores how the personal journeys of each of the reformers eventually led to their deaths. This text effectively argues that Protestantism, or at least the sentiments influencing later Protestant movements, existed for centuries prior to the Reformation by presenting three lengthy case studies of figures from across Europe and multiple centuries.
