This modern-English edition of William Tyndale's 1528 masterpiece brings a foundational text of the Protestant Reformation to today's readers with clarity and warmth. Written during a time of religious and political upheaval, The Obedience of a Christian Man argues that the Bible alone is the ultimate authority for faith and life, and that Christians are called to obey their rulers—while also insisting that Scripture must be available to everyone in their own tongue. Tyndale's words are both a theological treatise and a passionate plea for reform, offering timeless insights into the relationship between faith, conscience, and civil power. Faithfully rendered in accessible, present-day English, this edition preserves the spirit and meaning of the original while inviting a new generation to engage with its profound truths.
