(Disclaimer: This transcript is auto-generated and may contain mistakes.) Did Catholics really give us the Bible? In 1408, the Synod of Oxford, a Catholic council, actually passed a law banning the translation of the Bible into English. Yet, despite the Catholic Church's wicked law, in the 1500s there was a man by the name of William Tyndale. Tyndale famously said to a Catholic priest, If gods spare my life ere many years, I will cause a boy that driveth the plough, shall know more of the scripture than thou dost. Tyndale made it his life's work to translate the Bible into English against Catholic law. And because of it, he suffered the ultimate price. He ended up being burned at the stake by the Catholic Church. As he was being burned alive, his last words were this, Lord, open the King of England's eyes. And less than 100 years later, King James authorized the translation of the King James Bible into the English language that we hold and treasure today. We have the Bible in English today, not because of the Catholic Church, but in spite of it.
