William Tyndale

Somehow I was reminded of William Tyndale today reading this post by a good sister Berean Wife, and how God had him do His will to translate the Bible and put it in our hands that we who today enjoy freedom to practice our faith might have full access to God’s Word.

Today, there are so many Bible translations on the shelf that picking one isn’t an easy choice. While some say that there’s no point in being picky so long as you can understand what you read, I beg to differ.
