In 1415, itthe Council of Constance, which condemned Jan Hus to death, declared Wycliffe a heretic. His bones were exhumed and burned and the ashes were put into the River Swift.

Yikes. Good thing Jesus wasn't around then. Who knows what they would've done to Him.

Thank you for posting this, also.

“Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.” Jeremiah 6:16

I remember the story about Wycliffe’s bones being dug up and burned and thrown into the river. There are several good documentaries about Hus, Wycliffe, Luther, the Waldenses, etc., I enjoy these.

Enormous problem, the ecumenicalism happening. Final push, one hopes not. More pushback needed.

I am getting mixed results looking up John Wycliffe. Some say he was well to do and some say he was from a poor family.
I tend to think he had money with the title “Lord of Wycliffe” and going to Oxford instead of having to work.

Does anyone know the answer?
