Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ecclesiastical Biography, Vol. 2 of 4: Or Lives of Eminent Men, Connected With the History of Religion in England Thomas Bilney was brought up in the universitie of Cambridge, profiting in all kind of liberall sciences, even unto the profession of both lawes. But having gotten a better schoolemaster, even the holy Spirit of Christ, enduing his heart by privie inspiration with the knowledge of better and more wholesome things, he came at the last unto this point, that forsaking the knowledge of mans lawes, he converted his studie to those things, which tend more unto godlinesse than gainfulnesse. As he himselfe was greatly inflamed with the love of true religion, even so againe was in his heart an incredible desire to allure many unto the same, desiring nothing more than that he might stir up and encourage any to the love of Christ, and sincere religion. Neither were his labours vaine, for he converted many of his fellowes unto the knowledge of the gospel; amongst which number was Thomas Arthur, and master Hugh Latimer; which Latimer at that time was crosse-keeper at Cambridge, bringing it forth upon procession daies. At the last, Bilney forsaking the universitie went into many places, teaching and preaching, being associate with Arthur, which accompanied him from the universitie. The authoritie of Thomas Wolsey, cardinall of Yorke, at that time was great in England, but his pompe and pride much greater, which did evidently declare unto all wise men the manifest vanitie, not only of his life, but also of all the bishops and clergie.
