In this book William Tyndale, one of the most renowned religious
scholars of the Reformation, writes his explanations of
justification by faith. The Parable of the Wicked Mammon is the
very first work which carries William Tyndale's name. Selecting
chapter sixteen from the Book of Luke as a basis, Tyndale explains
crucial differences between emerging Protestant beliefs and the
established Catholic system. By choosing this passage, Tyndale is
able to explain justification and the fruits of it, thereby
highlighting a central motivation behind the ensuing Reformation.
Notably, this work sees the author acknowledge for the first time
his new translation of the Biblical New Testament. Writing in part
to blunt the blame levied upon the Protestant cause as being behind
outbreaks of violence in Europe, Tyndale sought to frame his
arguments in religious terms. By admitting his translation of the
Bible, Tyndale reveals that he is opposed to keeping the scripture
out of the hands of the common people.
The thrilling narrative of Rosanna McGonegal Yoder, the Irish
Catholic baby girl, who lived with an Amish woman, Elizabeth Yoder.
All the episodes of "Rosanna of the Amish" are based on fact.
Joseph W. Yoder gives an honest, sympathetic, straightforward
account of the religious, social, and economic customs and
traditions of the Amish.
