2 English Martyrs: Nicholas Ridley

-
2 English Martyrs "And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus" (Rev 17:6) Nicholas Ridley MARTYR Nicholas Ridley was among those martyred for the true gospel of Christ in Queen Mary's time. Born in Northumberland, Ridley learned his grammer as a child in Newcastle and attended Cambridge University, where he soon became well-known for his intelligence, and advanced rapidly, becoming a Doctor of Divinity and the head of Pembroke Hall. After that, he traveled to Paris, was made Henry VIII’s chaplain on his return, and appointed Bishop of Rochester by the king. In King Edward's days he served as the Bishop of London. People flocked to the church to listen to his sermons, swarming about him like bees to honey, coveting the sweet flowers and wholesome nectar of the doctrines of Christ that he not only preached but demonstrated by his life.

It is true, God sent his word first by Christ, "He so loved the world, that he sent his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him, might not perish, but have everlasting life," John 3:16. Then Christ sends it by men, that we may not be afraid at his appearance, as Is-rael were of old; "We have this treasure in earthen vessels," II Corinthians 4:7. 3. To whom is it that he sent...

A Message from Guest: 2 English Martyrs -Hugh Latimer

-
A Message from Guest: 2 English Martyrs Hugh Latimer: Martyr Hugh Latimer was born about 1485, the son of a wealthy farmer with a good reputation. At the age of four, he was sent to school and trained in literature; at fourteen, he entered Cambridge University where he continued in ordinary studies, and then concentrated on studying theology, the kind the ignorance of that age allowed, and was a zealous observer of the Roman Catholic superstitions of the time. He was ordained a priest in 1510. Latimer was a bitter enemy of the Protestant reformers, but God was to intervene. It was surely God's grace that moved the Cambridge reformer, Thomas Bilney, who was burned at the stake for heresy in 1532, to go to Latimer's study and ask him to hear his confession. Latimer willingly agreed, thinking perhaps that Bilney might be returning to the Roman Catholic religion. But during the confession, Latimer was so affected by Bilney's faith in Christ that he began to question him about ...
